**RECIPE, FEEDS 8-10**
5 lb (2.27kg) bone-in chicken thighs and/or legs (I think thighs are better)
1-2 lb (454-907g) dark greens (I like curly kale)
1 lb (454g) carrots
1/2 lb (227g) small dried pasta shape (I like Israeli couscous)
2 onions
2 stalks celery (very optional)
4-5 garlic cloves
half a bottle of white wine (if you don't use this you might need more water in the soup and you'll want to put in a little lemon juice or vinegar at the end to taste)
1-2 eggs (depending on if you want to clarify the stock)
pecorino or parmesan cheese
a few bay leaves
fresh herbs for the meatballs and for garnish (I like parsley)
dried herbs (I like oregano, thyme, sage and garlic powder)
olive oil
breadcrumbs (I like panko)
salt
pepper
Cut as much meat off the bones as you reasonably can and set aside. To make the stock, put the bones and skin in a big pot along with an onion (cut in half), a couple carrots and a couple celery stalks. Put the uncovered pot in the oven and brown all the stuff under the broiler/grill, taking it out to stir it a few times. (You can just fry the stuff on the stovetop instead until you've got some color on everything.)
Get everything fully submerged in water, cover and cook in the oven at 200ºF/95ºC overnight or up to 24 hours. If you need stock faster, do it at 400ºF/200ºC for 2-3 hours. (You could just simmer it on the stovetop instead of doing it in the oven.) Strain all the solids out of the stock and discard. If you want to clarify the stock, separate out two egg whites, beat them with a little cold water, stir them into the stock and simmer for about 10 minutes. A raft will form at the top that traps impurities - skim or strain it off. (This is also a good time to skim off fat, if you want to. I don't.)
To make the meatballs, blitz your reserved chicken meat in a food processor until just before it forms a smooth paste. (You can mince meat by hand with a knife, though it takes awhile.) Put the meat in a big mixing bowl. Crack in one egg, or put in your two reserved egg yolks if you clarified the stock. Grate in a giant pile of cheese. Pour in some breadcrumbs (I shoot for meatballs that are about 1/4 breadcrumbs by volume). Season aggressively with dried herbs and pepper. Season conservatively with salt (you can add more in a sec). Put in a handful of roughly chopped fresh herbs. Pour in a big glug of olive oil.
Mix everything up then cook a tiny sample to taste for seasoning (I just microwaved it). Add more salt if needed. Roll into meatballs. You can either poach them directly in the soup, or you can brown them in a pan with olive oil before putting them in. (I recommend browning them in a nonstick pan, since chicken meatballs are very delicate and likely to break if they stick.)
To finish the soup, pour the white wine into the stock, drop in the bay leaves and season it conservatively with salt. If you have a leftover cheese rind, you could put that in now to flavor the soup. Chop your remaining carrots and onion into small pieces and put them in the stock. Put in the meatballs (browned or not). Put in the pasta. Simmer the soup until the carrots and onions are soft and the meatballs are cooked through, about half an hour. (It can hold all day like this.) Eventually take out the bay leaves and the cheese rind.
While you're simmering the soup, peel and chop the garlic, prep the greens by trimming out any tough stems and cutting the leaves into bite-size pieces. About 10 minutes before you want to eat, stir the leaves into the soup and cook until wilted but still green. If the soup needs more liquid, add some more water and/or wine. If you're not using wine, stir in a squeeze of lemon juice or a splash of vinegar. Taste the broth and add more salt or acid if it needs it. Stir in the garlic right before you want to eat. Garnish the soup with fresh herbs in the bowl. Leftovers freeze and thaw great. - Навчання та стиль
"I have my doubts about bay leaves, but..." I think it would be interesting to see a whole video about them, the various uses, and maybe a blind taste test with Lauren like you did for the various methods of garlic preparation to show whether or not it makes a big difference in different dishes.
Chlebowski did one: worth watching.
Fully agree that Adam should do a deep dive as well - if only to reform him 😆
ethan cheblowski got you: ua-cam.com/video/3-Iksy2CNmg/v-deo.html
That's a big second from me! I like using them because they make me feel fancy, but I'm often not entirely sure if they make a difference.
not a “life of boris” fan i see.
@@sarahwatts7152 If you use enough, they absolutely add a really nice layer of herbal flavor that is enjoyable
The "mother and child reunion" caught me off guard and made my day
Fun Italian/Japanese crossover with Oyakodon there lol
My guess is that he watched Kenji's "Oyakodon" video. Oyakodon - parent and child rice bowl dish. Now he's programmed to see them that way
@@ninoslavmiloscin9020 I got it from Paul Simon, who got it from a Chinese restaurant menu.
@@aragusea It's forbidden in kosher rules, Simon would probably know that too.
@@anonymousrex8088 it is forbidden to prepare chicken meat and egg together? That is interesting actually.
Let’s see, in this video we got

7:55 adam got so excited to use the white wine, his voice cracked
For Christmas season this year, I think we need an video on making eggnog
YES THIS
Just watch Alton Brown's video.
I am sure he will do it
Ditto
How to drink just did a video on it.
I love this channel because how realistic he is about stuff. He needs to make a video comparing store broth and homeade broth. and then testing to see if theres little additions to store broth you can do to make it close to homade
Unless it’s a home made style butcher’s stock, most supermarket stocks are much more watery and tasteless than the stuff you would make at home.
@@danielplainview1 yeah that’s what everyone says but he should make an actually comparison. Regusea tests a lot of things that “everyone says” and often finds they aren’t as true as you’d think
@@Snuggieman Everyone’s not saying it.
@@danielplainview1 everyone I’ve ever seen on UA-cam recommends making your own broth. Do some not?
My personal experience is that knorr bouillon cubes have additives that give a taste you may not expect from a broth, notably some acidic taste reminiscent of lemon, which I don‘t like. I think the reason homemade broth is better is that you have more control, and tastes from herbs can be kept fresh, such as dill or coriander.
This has been my favorite soup since I was a child. Brings back memories.
How often do you get married?
@Poe Soul facts
bro why did I read that as soap
5:59 Mother and child reunion 😂😂😂
6:00 min... puts eggs into the minced bowl of chicken and says "mother and child reunion". I'm dying!!! LOLOLOLOL
"Mother-and-child reuinion"
Is that foreshadowing for an oyakodon episode? I'd love to see you try your hand at that, especially since the dish has some significance in my family.
Was thinking about that too!
And coincidentally, almost a year later, I return to this video... while eating oyakodon.
Beautiful recipe, thanks Adam. Regarding bay leaves: I live in downtown L.A where there are tons of great Mexican and Latin American products in the grocery store. I started buying what I assume is "Mexican bay leaf", although it could just be regular bay leaves that just happen to be sold in the same aisle as Mexican spices. I get an amazing astringent note from these things and have started using them regularly in all my heartier soups and stews. So if anyone out there is thinking "bay leaves: what's the point?" I would encourage you to try the Mexican/Latin American kind.
I live in L.A too! Not downtown though my college is.
Go to the Latin grocery is pretty good advice for nearly any situation.
Forget the wrapped presents, the Latin grocery would have all the Christmas gifts I need.
"Normal" bay leaf= _Laurus nobilis_
Mexican bay leaf= _Litsea_ spp.
Same family, different genera.
@°Kuku° interesting note: genre, gender, and genera are all cognates!
My grandma made her wedding soup with both tiiiiny meatballs and chopped up chicken. Also she made these little chunks of baked cheese that were like fun little sponges spread through the soup. My aunt and cousin have carried down the recipe perfectly, thank goodness.
Ian, I have the best recipe for those little spongy cheesy soup croutons. Your grandma's recipe sounds like my grandma's recipe, the shredded chicken with the teeny meatballs and she used pastina for the pasta.
My mother did the same. The meatballs have to fit on the spoon along with some of the pastine.
Replicated with some twists, tastes great! To make meatballs more tender and less fragile, 1 or 2 tablespoon of starch can be added. Stiring the mince in one direction for 1 or 2 min until it's sticky also helps with the texture. Those are some technique when making Chinese style meatball.
11:15 I have been laughing for like 5 minutes because I just realized that he meant “sick” as in “under the weather” for softer meatballs. I thought for a while that he was saying like “sick in the head,” for people who just prefer softer meatballs. Delicious soup, though.
The white wine is back! As a long-time Ragusea watcher, this makes me very happy.
It looked like he poured the remaining half of the bottle in at the end.

My family makes this soup with escarole as our greens, and that’s also what we call the soup: Escarole soup, or simply ‘scarole as my very old school south philly Italian grandfather would say.
We also do small meatballs with the meat trifecta in addition to shredded chicken, there’s no pasta, and there is also an egg and pecorino cheese mixture that gets mixed in at the very end, some of which curdles and some stays fluid, and creates a really nice texture and flavor.
Probably a thousand variations to this from family to family I’d think. Nice video.
Egg cheese mix sounds so good
Egg drop soup but Italian? Sounds dope.

Hey, Adam! I have been watching your videos for a long long time and I have been enjoying them quite a bit!
I am from Bulgaria, which is an Eastern European country, and I know that you are very curious and intelligent, so...
We have this recipe here, that is something very close to this soup.
You start by sweating onions in a big pot, then adding carrots and a little bit of red pepper. You then proceed to add stock or water and make vegetable stock. Maybe put in a bay leave or two. You wait for about an hour for the souo to simmer.
You form meatballs maybe three times smaller than yours from 60/40 beef to pork grind meat, only seasoned with salt and pepper and you roll them in flour.
You put them in the soup, adding thyme and other herbs you might like and wait for them to get ready.
When all ingredients are almost ready you put Vermicelli in then you make a thickener with yogurt and eggs. You put the thickener in the soup, while off the gas, while stirring.
Then you put some chopped parsley and lemon juice.
One of my favorite soups of all time.
By the way, amazing chicken stock recipe!!!
7:46 Never had I thought that I'd see the day where Adam would say "thicc bois" in his video.
i love how when he drops things out of shot he just adds a couple frames with the word "bye" where they fell. its a bit of comedy that brightens my day
Elated to see your take on wedding soup - it's been a long time favorite of mine but was always really disappointed with canned versions and never got it quite right if I made it myself. This is definitely going on my meal prep list for this week!
I just made this per your directions. Used mushrooms instead of celery and lentils instead of pasta since my wife has a gluten allergy. It was fantastic. Lentils obviously made it a thicker, darker soup, but it was lovely nonetheless!
Growing up, adding little meatballs to chicken soup was the norm in my house. I didn't hear this being called "wedding soup" until the 2000's. This is kind of like never really hearing the term pasta until around the same time; before this we always just ate "macaroni" on Sunday's.
You are the only UA-camr who’s ads/sponsors I ever watch at all, and I watch them every time. You just do it so seamlessly and concisely explain why you like the product and it’s always very relatable and personable and educated
This is amazing. This dish is the first thing I learned to make. My stepmother is pure Sicilian and proud of cooking and taught me to make many traditional Sicilian dishes. I love seeing someone else make it. It’s a little different that what she taught me but basically the same.
The italian one is neapolitan, not sicilian.
@@cohorspraetoria8157 my bad. I’m not familiar with terminology.
@@gavinistheawesomest i apologize, after rereading myself, i sounded utterly pedantic, so, nothing bad on your part.
@@cohorspraetoria8157 all good, mate.
Loved that final shot of Adam dumping the rest of the wine into his bowl of soup!
"A cheese rind that you would otherwise throw away" - now what am I going to chew on while the soup is cooking? Those rinds are good!
Bit of an odd request, but could you possibly do an episode for a one person christmas meal?
This would be good because you can make a meal for one, or scale something up.
Rough holidays huh
What I did last Christmas, when dinner was over Zoom thanks to the plague:
Ham Steak: precooked single-serving, blotted dry and seared on the stovetop. Served with a drizzle of maple syrup.
Peas: from frozen, few minutes in the microwave, bit of salt and pepper.
Mashed potatoes: cut up and left in water ahead of time, then just brought to boil and prepared as usual.
Dinner rolls: I made homemade, but you can just buy them at the store.
Jello Salad: prepared the previous day.
U okay bro?
Just try your best to make a good meal and just see it as good leftovers for the next few days. Good luck bro!
4:26 the horror of watching adam not pick out that fragment of shell from the egg whites
My parents are Italian and I have a love/hate relationship with this soup
Cheers from Montreal 🇨🇦
why so?

@@orion8731 probably because he ate it so much as a kid
Hey Adam I tried this meal yesterday and it was fantastic! I accidentally added the super small couscous and it absorbed all of the water and turned it closer to Italian wedding porridge but still, the flavors were amazing and everyone was very happy with it. Thanks for the video!
Adam, my dude, my man! I have made many of your recepies and they have been amazing (shout out to your delicious ice cream) but this! This is one of the best things I have ever made or even tasted! What an amazing dish. Those meatballs were to die for.
You have turned me into one of those people who make their own stock and I want to thank you for that.
1:30 "...in the states" Thank you Adam for remembering that some of us who watch your videos do NOT live in USA. Too many "youtubers" forget that fact.
I love this soup; can't wait to make it at home. Regarding meatballs, in my attempt to make a gluten-free version, I used mirepoix plus whatever vegetables seemed good for the recipe at the time, all shredded, and coated them with bacon fat and salt, and oven-roasted them. When the veggies were finished and cool, I used them to hold together the meatballs, as well as adding flavor and texture to them. A bit time-consuming, but worth it.
In Germany this is called "Hochzeitssuppe" > wedding soup
It is usually a broth (not necessarily chicken) with diced vegetables (carrots, white asparagus, celery root, etc.), meatballs (again, not necessarily chicken) and several types of dumplings (some examples are liver dumplings, semolina dumplings, royale dumplings). But no greens - at least I haven't seen it with it! Though the recipes vary wildly from region to region!
As far as I can tell, it is called wedding soup, as it is an easy - but delicious - soup, that can be made for big groups of people - just like the ones you have at a wedding :). Depending on the region, it is a must to have the local variation of this soup at your wedding. Basically, the more traditional a region is, the more likely you will find it at a wedding in that region...
Hey Adam! I just tried this and it turned out great! One of my family members has a sore throat (unfortunately right before Christmas) and she said this made it feel 10x better. Thanks for the video!
My Italian American grandma straight from Massapequa Long Island made this for me once as a kid, and I’ve never had the chance to try and make it myself. Thank you, Adam!
Adam's mentioned bay leaves so often in recent videos that I feel like a "Do bay leaves actually do anything?" video is on the way
7:00 I love that Adam is using Tim’s Kitchen Tips! Awesome show, great job!
Love it, the soup videos are usually the best because its mostly done in the one pot, anyone even without culinary skills can truly make fantastic soup
I found his channel when I was researching the pros and cons of eating pork, and then started watching your recipes. All I want to say is thank you! You make everything so easy and explain them really well.
Thank you again. Oh, and of course, you have a new subscriber :)
This is the second Adam Ragusea recipe I've made. This turned out really good. But I did swap out the stock for store bought and the chicken for ground chicken. I know it's not the same thing but I was in a hurry to get dinner on the table. It still turned out really yummy!
I can’t believe you forgot your ACIDITY graphic @10:53
I'm a big fan of Adam's content and somehow this is one of my favorites. Probably because of the simple, relatable, and highly effective presentation. Thanks!
I was expecting the ad transition, but I was absolutely caught off guard by the Airstream Interstate 24X.
I'm looking forward to making this at home! I haven't been able to eat it ever since my local shop started putting pork in (and they make the soup in bulk, unfortunately), so I'll see if I can match that nostalgic taste!
I’m thrilled this included an easy at home stock recipe! Chicken stock is so freaking good, but I’ve always been afraid to attempt it on my own. Very glad for your approachable content

I've made this comment before, but I find myself watching more and more of your videos as the school year approaches because your recipes are just so good for students, busy parents, and any number of modern folk to throw in the freezer and forget about. Even when you do chef-y things, they're in the name of not thinking about food longer than you have to to get something nutritious.
In Greece we have a similar dish, although the meatballs are made by beef mince and they also have rice in them. I'm definitely interested in trying your version. Thanks Adam!
One thing we do at my house is using brown rice or farro instead of pasta. They'll stay toothsome instead of going mushy like white rice or pasta and they've got lots of fiber while still functioning as a carb. We also let some fennel seed boil in the stock when we put in the hard veggies to make the chicken sausage seem more like italian sausage.
@@hikamihise1967 I am a child of God and I won't stand for this blasphemy.
The divorce soup dosent include meatballs, it haves pineapple in it
"Right around the time my kids decide they hate me and don"t want to travel with me anywhere". Truer words have never been spoken.
"It's gonna be cloudy again after we cook meatballs in it" Surprised nobody caught that
We like our soup broth-y, so I now pre cook the grains or pasta in a a separate pot of water then add it to the soup towards the end. You can add some of the cooking liquid into the soup if you wish. It is an extra step, but pre-cooking controls the thickening and your pot of soup doesn't become more like a stew, particularly if it's not going to be eaten right away. I often have leftover cooked rice or pasta that needs using up . . . a combo of both works too.
4:44
Coagulated raft was my nickname in high school
Hey Adam. I know this video is a few months old now but I figured I'd leave a comment for posterity's sake -- I made this recipe about a month ago with storebought meatballs and no pasta (keto diet) and I just wanted to say it was absolutely incredible. Thank you for introducing me to such a wonderful soup recipe! My Dad and I both loved it and I'll definitely make it again.
I am 100% making this! Love any kind of chicken soup and this one looks easy and affordable.
Interesting. We have a similar dish here in southwest Germany: "Verheierte" (translates to "married couple"), which has potatoes and egg noodles ("Spaetzle") in a vegetable soup. There seems to be a global theme of "marrying" different ingredients.
1:38 The doomsday zoom into your chicken breakdown was concerning, Adam.
When I think of wedding soup I think of pork, beef, lamb, and possibly veal meatballs, with chicken peices, and kindof gnocchi like dumplings, and sofrito and some fresh herbs
Like fresh parsley and fresh herbs in the broth. Its kindof an occasion thing when i have it.
This is experience from my dads and grandmas cooking
Id say like 3rd or 4th generation italian, grew up and they in a small kinda rural mostly italian immigrant populated town
Makes so much sense now! I was always confused as to why Italians would prefer this soup over any others at their wedding.
For someone who just finished two Hot Pockets, this looks really good...and I regret my inability to cook well. Need to keep watching your channel and find recipes that are easy but healthy.
“Pecorino or Parmesan is pretty standard in a classic Italian meatball such as myself” made me laugh way harder than it should’ve
I literally made this soup right before this was posted.
It's good stuff!
Adam: came back to say I made this and I love it so much. I used red cabbage instead of kale and straight up ground pork, and it was beautiful...German/Italian Marriage....
Looks delicious! Italian wedding soup is one of my favorites.
Do you have a plastic bag resealer (for the panko)? These things are great for resealing (remelting) almost any type of plastic storage bag. Bag resealers might be an interesting video topic.
Thanks again.
I think the pasty texture of meat ground in a food processor actually makes better meat balls than using pre-ground meat. I think it sticks together way better.
I'm a diehard tap water advocate and water in the kitchen is something I would absolutely watch
My favorite leafy green to put in wedding soup is escarole, much better than kale (too tough) or spinach (which can have a sulphury smell)
Hey watching this stock made for the soup reminded of a video from James Hoffman i had seen a while back where he used basically grinded vegetables for his stock instead of rough chunks. this might be something worth exploring. I think it was called something like "how coffee makes better vegetable stock"

6:04 Adam experiences identity dysphoria and comes out as a meatball
One of my favourite recipes. I add small chunks of broiled sweet potato in later with the greens.
As for stock I always take leftover bones from Buffalo Wild Wings or other wing oriented restaurants- they lend their flavorings to the stock and is simply delicious.
Here in Frankonia (part of Bavaria) we have a similar recipe for wedding soup. We use dumplings with liver instead of meat balls. Delicious.
Liver dumplings with chicken stock? In Czechia, they're usually paired with beef stock.
In Spain we also have Guiso de novia (Brides stew) that is basically a stew with meatballs. It cannot be a coincidence, maybe it was originally a roman dish?
Anvime this is possible.
Lord Muhehe you are right. It's made with beef stock and as a special bonus there are also pancakes that are cut into thin slices used instead of noodles.
In Indonesia they have similar soup called sup pengantin (bride and bridegroom soup).. It is so similar, chicken (cut or meatballs) based soup with vegetables like carrot, peas, cabbage, with some elbow/spiral macaroni.. Sometimes mushroom (wood ear, champignon or snow fungus) is also added.
The only difference is we don't use any dairy products in it.
Considering the similarity of concept and name, I wonder if it also brought by Italian descendants in Indonesia...
wow that's really similar, maybe one was inspired by the other? Love how many similarities you can see in cultures around the world.
I don't know of any significant Italian diaspora in Indonesia. Honestly, I'm more tempted to say that it's a very convenient way to use vegetables and meat, especially of the kind farmers would have, so a lot of different cultures came up with it independently. The similarity in name is... curious though, I'll give you that.
@Antonio SCENDRATE GATTICO yes indeed. I don't think Italian descendants in Indonesia is not that much, but the few of them that did settled/stayed in Indonesia had left quite a mark..
There's one ice cream parlor in my city Surabaya called Zangrandi, was established by Italian Zangrandi brothers. While the famous one in Jakarta (our capital City) called Ragusa, was opened by Luigi and Vincenzo Ragusa..
Hey.. RAGUSA also sounds quite a lot like RAGUSEA 🤔🤔🤔 maybe they're related to Adam's family too... 😁 😁 😁 😁 @adam ragusea
@@evelineeveline6106 Hah, would be funny but it's likely that their families simply came from the same area (Ragusa is actually a city in Italy)
@@antonioscendrategattico2302 oh wow.. Okay.. That might be the cause hahahhaha...
Just finished making this, and it definitely was delicious and worth the time. It came out thicker than it should...my excellent cooking showing it true colors which I have no doubt of lol.
Italian wedding soup is so good. Nice recipie.
I actually had the Progresso one several years ago first.
Adam, It's the first time in my life that I actually craved for soup. I'm gonna make it. I wonder if it's good to make the flavors even more robust by caramelizing the onions and carrots instead of poaching them in the stock. It would work like the base of japanese kare which is often caramelized onions and carrots. By the way, please make a video on japanese kare from scratch, it's the best thing ever I promise.
Right? It's time adam starts Japanese food, I'd love to see it
One minor suggestion in what was otherwise a perfectly wonderful recipe:
Before straining your stock (whether you filter or use egg white - which I'd heard of but never actually seen anyone do) use a separator or simply put it in the fridge for long enough for the fat to solidify and scrape it off the surface. Add it to your meatballs at the same time you add your eggs - it works better than olive oil, and if you get any "particles" with it, nobody will even know - just more flavor.
Seeing you here was a surprise to be sure, but a welcome one!
@@therealchristianjames I am everywhere lol
*I love Adam’s community so much yall so chill
This showed up in my recommended just on time. I was gifted about 12 pounds of ground venison recently and I was going to use some to make a soup or stew with meatballs in it. I'll use this video as a blueprint for my soup
6:22 I think you might need a bigger bowl. 😉
I've been wanting to make this for the last few days! Yay!
Also, I bought Marmite today!

Great looking soup! I will have to try this recipe. Thanks for the demo on the egg white skimming method. Seems to be quite effective.
My wedding soup has a lot more store bought items, but I appreciate you showing this version. I appreciate the videos
My favorite soup, never made it before, and I have a freezer full of chicken meat from a sale at Aldi weeks back that I've been struggling to use. Perfecting timing!
I love this white wine soup, reminds me of when I threw up at my aunt's wedding from drinking too much white wine, perfect name.
A really amazing way to deskin drumsticks is to take a washcloth and yank the skin with it. Also, I'm a HUGE fan of making stock in the InstantPot...
I roast my meatballs in the oven, but I had not thought of roasting the vegetables. I can't wait to try it.
Every Ragusea sponsor ever: "...and if you live outside the US and you dare to be even interested in our product and check us out for possible deliveries to Europe ... you will be shot on sight."
A few years ago my local grocery store had chicken leg quarters on the cheap for months. Sometimes the standard ten-pound bags were as low as $1 though $2.50 was more usual. I’d roast a bagful in a Dutch oven, sloppily pick off most of the cooked meat, and make stock from the remains. I don’t know what caused the price crash.
Damn, at that price you don't ask questions -- you buy a chest freezer and fill it with free chicken.
Am I Italian American? This looks like a POV of me cooking: eyeballing, going by feel, real spicing and salting, experimenting on the fly, even the way the kale gets cut. I feel represented 🙌
Be back later: gotta check my family tree
I'm glad we can all appreciate good soup here. Thanks Adam!

I'm not gonna lie, I don't know why but an airstream sponsor was by far the last thing I expected. Also a really interesting insight into your demographic.
Given that I'm about to have an excess of turkey stock, I think I'm going to try this with turkey in the near future.
Adam! You are a genuine Prince. I have followed you for a long, long time and your positive attitude and uncommon scientific wit brings me Joy every time you post! Molto Gracie
meatballs/meatloaf are actually just about the ONLY things that i prefer good old Italian seasoned bread crumbs for, i just enjoy the flavor and texture of them more in this specific application versus panko (which is literally superior for virtually EVERY other application in which a binder such as bread crumbs are needed and/or desirable)
I live in Brazil and can definitely taste bay leaves on pretty much anything! I actually tend to use only one leaf if I’m cooking black beans, for example, due to it changing the flavour completely. When they are dried sometimes it’s even more of a punch. Maybe bay leaves in Latin America are stronger? Does anybody have the same experience?
Haven't tried Brazilian bay leaves, but there's definitely a big regional difference. When I was in France the bay leaves were amazing, while here in the UK they barely have any flavour. You notice the difference as soon as you switch between them. So I think Adam might need to look at different varieties if his aren't doing anything noticeable in his food.
I'm kind of curious as to who all has heard of Italian Wedding Soup before this video. I have a theory that it's a very regional thing in the U.S. I grew up just south of Pittsburgh, PA. There is a large Italian-descended population in the area, and this soup is one of the most popular at any restaurant that serves any kind of soup, not just Italian restaurants. When I got older, I moved out west to Idaho... where no one had ever heard of it.
Also, love this soup. It was a major part of my family's Christmas Eve meal for almost a decade. Yes, I know what the Italians are probably thinking: "Christmas Eve? that's supposed to be the Feast of Seven Fishes..." well, I'm not Italian... at all (as far as I know).
I knew of Italian wedding soup before this video, but never heard of it growing up in Minnesota. It was only as an adult, moving all over the states that I encountered soup by that name. There weren't many Italian immigrants in Minnesota, and the few here concentrated in the Iron Range and Duluth up north, and St Paul, which is noticeably Catholic in a heavily Lutheran state.
Wedding Soup is definitely a thing in Germany.
Don't worry, the "minestra maritata" (which is from naples) is traditionally eaten during winter, and also traditionally eaten during christmas eve.
In Arizona, never lived east of the Rockies. "Italian Wedding Soup" appears to be a nationwide name for this type of soup.
Lived in MD, NJ, and downstate NY. Didn't hear about Italian wedding soup until I moved to Harrisburg, PA. Moved to Pittsburgh, and it's every restaurant's daily soup.
I made this today and WOW, it was so good ! I will definitely be making this again ☺️
Adam inadvertently did a recipe of my favorite soup on my birthday. Thank you Adam.
