  1. Great soup, but I always toss in my leftover parmesan rinds in to add flavor to the soup as it cooks and take them out at the end.

  2. Hmmmm Italians add tubetti or whatever pasta u prefer but cook separately To much starch .. we also add carrots and like bc like u said u do other ways! The romano beans out of shell should cook separately too they talk much longer to cook unless u use canned beans .. I prefer organic .. romano lupa is really the cheese ! Traditionally used yes Swiss chard or spinach and yes xolive oil ..yes green beans and red peppers give the aroma . The pasta was ditali u put to big ditallini better but then again preference 😀🇮🇹👍.. good job !

  3. .. also I use simmenthal beef in a can mmm ! Or fillet tenderloin beef plus I add cayenne just couple dashes mmm 😋

  4. I remember the first time I had a minestrone in the U.S. I couldn't believe the amount of tomatoes in it. It was so sour, too. I've never seen a red minestrone, but you're right in saying it's made with everything we have in the fridge. Typically, minestrone contains legumes (more than one kind), root veggies, greens and grains. My mother would put one tomato, one potato, one onion, one carrot, one stalk of celery; typical stock stuff, and then she would add the grains, legumes and veggies she had.

  5. This was SO good! Thank you for the great video! I had hungry, impatient family asking when it would be done, so I raised the temp to cook it faster. It was even better the next day after the veggies absorbed all the flavors of the broth.

  6. Una receta espectacular. Busque una y me quedo con esta. Muchas gracias y buen provecho de sopa casera

  7. Rewatched this and remade this soup recipe so many times already. Always good. Thanks Chef John.

  8. Beautiful!! Bella! Love the Swiss chard addition. I’m having minestrone at the Olive Garden right now and yours beats it all to hell

  9. omg looks so good. I usually make mine with no meat and add turnip and lots of cabbage

  10. Such a great recipe.I grow speckled cranberry beans in my garden and love them. Like panzanella this soup is a classic example of use what you have to hand and it reduces waste. Brilliant! Thanks

  11. Making this at work today for just over 100 people…so happy to finally have a cooler rainy day so we can have this again…with homemade garlic Parmesan croutons. Always a favorite!

  12. On the menu for tomorrow with my no knead bread. Just wanted a refresher/ inspo. Panchetta! Never would have done that. Not sure why it never occurred to me

  13. Your voice reminded me of someone and I just realized you kind of sound like the chef that does Spain on a Fork.

  14. Never cook the pasta in the soup mixture. Far too much starch. I par-cook the pasta separately and then finish off in the soup. And I use chorizo sausage diced. Much tastier. Canellini beans are delicious in this as well.

  15. Looked so good, had to try, and so delicious. I added some squash with the pasta at the end. Thank you for the yummy 😋 recipe. I will be back to try more!!! 🤗 👍😄👍

  16. Hi Chef John – I was trying to come up with a good, lucky New Years Eve soup (lucky with beans and greens) and this is it! My folks (Italians) made Minestrone from time to time but it's one of those meal-size dishes that I just haven't thought about in too long. My husband had several servings! The store shelves had no diatlini so I made sausage ravioli instead – yum! So many thanks, Chef, and Happy New Year!

  17. Thank you cheff looks 😋
    Running off to make it .can I use kale I don't have those greens you have?

  18. I made minestrone the other day and had an orange-y foam appear on top of the soup when it came to a simmer just like it looks in this video. What is the foam and should one remove it?

  19. Made this recipe to pressure can. I left out the pasta as you can’t use pasta when canning. I’ll add that when I pull this meal off the shelf. So good.
