Making minestrone soup from scratch is easier than you might think. Whether you’re using canned beans or soaking dry beans, it’s an easy weeknight dinner.
The base is carrots, onion and celery. They are also called aromatics because they infuse the soup with a deep, wonderful aroma.
If you happen to have a piece of parmesan cheese rind, dropping just a small piece in to the soup while it’s cooking will give your pot of autumn minestrone an amazing flavor.
