Minestrone Soup Recipe - Italian Vegetable and Pasta Soup

What a great hardy soup to warm you up on a cold day. Great idea about the addition of Garbanzo beans!

when i first saw this i thought chef john was playing minecraft, guess not, good recipe btw ^^

Tbh, here in italy most of the times a minestrone is only a soup with loads of diced vegetables…

I appreciate your knife.

chef john you are the best chef on youtube so far! i love ur videos :3 both helpful and entertaining x)

@pinkdragonflyx3 a year’s worth of Ramen would’ve probably paid to make this. Life’s too short to live on Ramen. ;D

My favorite soup! Thank you, Chef John!

Minestrone soup is kind of redundant. The translation of minestrone includes the word soup.

@riltjd America’s Test Kitchen is a great resource for that kind of thing. Seriously.

Chef John, you need new cookware.

i made this minestrone with a tire iron… are you sure there’s no way of doing it wrong? it didn’t taste so good and i lost a few teeth…

So minestrone is the stir-fry of soups?

YAY THANK YOU! A lactose-allergy friendly recipe! Sooo happy! Making this for the freezing nights in the SFBay we’re having.

I Love Minestrone Soup!!

I have been watching Chef John for over a year and I have never once made a single recipe…I just watch and cry as I eat my Ramen noodles….

Ah, minestrone is such a delicious soup. I have become used to a fairly simple recipe, but this one has so many more ingredients it makes me want to try it. I love the addition of swiss chard and would never have thought of doing that.

Needs more potatoes, though!

fuck, it’s summer but im gona make this.

Why do I always watch your videos late at night when I’m starving and have nothing in the fridge T_T

Now I know what to do with all the cabbage I bought a few weeks ago. We’ve made everything I could think of using it and we STILL have some left. Thanks Chef John!

I second the knife and pot/pan video!

Oh man, a bowl of that out on the porch when it’s snowing *DROOL*

right we don’t want to brown the garlic.. Remind me again why not????

@freebrook That is NOT Cayenne. It might have some Cayenne in it, but it is not pure Cayenne. I feel betrayed. *sniffle*

@MagicallyFat second one.

I never really liked minestrone, but that looks pretty good.
