What better way to enjoy a cold winter
day than with a hearty soup? At the
request of one of my students I put
together a menu of soups that I have
eaten in Calabria. We'll start with two
lighter soups and then move to two
hearty soups. First a delicate chicken
broth flavored with tiny meatballs made
out of fresh homemade ricotta, followed
by a creamy chick pea soup flavored
with shrimp broth. The next soup is
famous in Calabria because it is made
entirely out the sweet red onions of
Tropea and the last hearty soup is like a
thick tomato soup with homemade pasta
shavings.
We'll finish it off with a wonderful dessert,poached pears stuffed with a sweet
ricotta cream.
