zupa toscana? nope but it's the best! I want to know too.
This potato soup with sausage is similar to the Olive Garden's famous Toscana soup.
3 links sweet Italian sausage
2 medium baking potatoes, cut in half lengthwise
2 to 3 slices bacon, diced
3/4 cup onions, diced
1 medium to large clove garlic, minced
2 cups escarole, chopped, or kale, cut in half, then sliced
2 tablespoons chicken base
4 cups water
1/2 cup whipping cream
Remove sausage from casings; brown in a skillet, breaking up, until cooked through. Place onions and bacon in a large saucepan and cook over medium heat until onions are tender. Add garlic and cook 1 minute longer. Add chicken base, water and potatoes, simmer 15 minutes. Add sausage, kale and cream. Simmer 4 minutes and serve
Actually, pretty much no one knows, but one person made a book about how to make famous recipes. I'm pretty sure it has that recipe in there.
I WISH!
