    I'm Italian too and always had this soup on Thanksgiving before the feast, my mom always used the turkey neck and gizzards and heart and liver in the broth along with carrots celery white turnips and onion and parsley. She used beef and pork for the balls tho. Since she passed in 2018, we haven't had it either. I love it so much. It's crazy how similar all Italian families are😊💖

    • @gio7799
      @gio7799 Рік тому

      Italian Americans families are all similar, Sicilians, Neapolitans, Calabrians, everyone eats all the same dishes, in Italy it's different, a Sicilian family eats different dishes from a Roman family, a Tuscany family eats differently from a neapolitan family, anyway....the wedding soup in Italian minestra maritata there is only in Campania and Lazio and it's different from the American one.

    • @Pre1321
      @Pre1321 3 місяці тому

      Neapolitan Italian-American family here in NJ, we always had this soup as the first course at Thanksgiving and Christmas (usually made by a team of my Grandma & many Aunts/Cousins). Then we'd have a pasta course (usually a simple marinara), THEN 'American' Thanksgiving. As a kid I always ate so much of the soup & pasta that I barely had any of the classic main course dishes until I was 17-18.

    Here’s the thing. As a Sicilian woman (from Cleveland), I LOVE to see Italian recipes prepared the way my family has always made them. Veal meatballs, pecorino and escarole for sure. Thank you for sharing a legit recipe with non-Italians. But... for my family, wedding soup calls for a very specific soup noodle. Since it’s supposed to call to mind a wedding, we always use rings bc they look like wedding bands. Something only we would ever notice or think about, lol. Having said that, I love your channel and appreciate all you do.

    Made this tonight! Followed your recipe to the minute. I used beef for the meatballs with homemade breadcrumbs and freshly grated Pecorino Romano. They started to float around 5 or 6 minutes. I did them in 2 batches. They were so good the first batch almost didn't make it back into the pot. I used a homemade broth made with rotisserie chicken bones. So delicious! Thanks for sharing!

    Italian Wedding soup is made with all kinds of different ingredients, the name simply refers to the ingredients marriage. Chicken soup w/ meatballs is extremely common, I love it and make it often and it can be considered "Wedding Soup" but it's not the only! When I was in Italy, I had a wedding soup that took 2 full days to prepare, it had different cuts of pork, beef, veal, vegetables etc., etc., but no meatballs LOL! It was truly the most delious soup I've ever, ever had, I've never tried (yet) to duplicate that wedding soup, it's a lot of work and would be extremely expensive to make unless you live on a farm and have all the resources.
