Easy Tortellini Soup Recipe 

hello everyone from Italy, I live in Tuscany and if you like I also leave you the traditional but simple recipe for tortellini broth: 5 liters of water 1 onion 1 carrot 1 leg of celery 3 cloves 1/2 tablespoon salt (add or remove as desired by tasting) 1/4 star anise pod (optional) 1 beef bone (knee or any other is fine) 1/2 clean hen 1 kg (about 1 pound) of beef stock put all the ingredients in a large saucepan, cover with cold water and put over medium heat. Once it starts to boil, move to a small fire and clean the surface of the broth from brown foam several times. Let it simmer for 3 hours. Turn off, remove everything from the broth and filter it with a sieve. Ready to be enjoyed with tortellini or other type of broth pasta or simple crusty bread. Always add a sprinkling of grated Parmesan cheese 🙂 The meat removed from the broth is excellent to taste with sauces such as mayonnaise, ketchup, etc. and also perfect for filleting in a salad. a warm greeting from Italy

Italian wedding soup please John

OMG John, I never tire of your humor. Love you, glad to see you living your passion. --Sherrell

It was so simple and delicious to cook . This will be our new go to soup for the colder winter days !

I keep sending my daughter your soup videos and she’s LOVING them as much as I do. I’m loving trying recipes from your new cookbook too!!

Potato soup would be nice! I love potato soup in the winter. It's so filling and hearty.

I simmered down a container of Trader Joe’s bruschetta sauce and then added it to the pan with the sausage instead of using the garlic, onion, tomato and basil. It was amazing, thanks for helping me with dinner tonight! ❤

Really cold day here, put me in a soup making mood. Thank you so much !

…..slowly pushing jar of minced garlic away… 😂. Love all your recipes! Thank you for sharing them ❤️

Yum! I add my spinach to the bowls raw, they cook perfectly when the hot soup is poured in.

Humm! That soup looks so delicious! I am going to make it for my family.

Just made this with a few tweaks, and it is out of this world! Everyone loves it.

Oh god I’m excited!! I love tortellini!!! I finally found a way to make them fresh at home and made it work and not split!!

I’ve been making the soup for years. I do add some tomato paste when the sausage is cooking but it is absolutely delicious. Oh this is one of my kids favorites and they both make it as adults for their spouses.

Just bought tortellini earlier today. Perfect timing! Can't wait to try this.

I ysed dried tortellini ( all I had). I added roasted red pepper, red pepper flakes, a touch of tomato - chicken bouillon and fennel seed.( Sausage was pretty weak). Turned out great! Thank you!

I love that Dutch oven , my favorite color 💜

I just made this for lunch! Omg! This is soooo delicious, you are the best John! I enjoy watching your videos, it puts me in a very good mood and you can't never go wrong! Thank you so much for all your love and charisma you place into your recipes and videos. ❤️

Having people for dinner on a cold Saturday night. Making this soup along with crusty no kneed bread and salad. Thanks for the inspiration. Yum

This looks so good, I had to share it with my daughter! Agreed - no minced garlic in a jar, just not the same as freshly minced garlic.

I made it today. It came out great! Super easy and no mess! Thank you John!

Nice recipe.I’ll try it soon. The best trick is to add some lemon juice at serving time. Fresh Lemon juice brightens everything!

I'm making this tonight! I like something that's not too heavy for leftovers to take to work. I'm in such a soup mood this time of year.

This Sicilian momma approves this soup, looks delizioso!

Yum. I'm always looking for good bean soup recipes. I love bean soup in the winter.

I'VE WRITTEN EVERYTHING DOWN AND WILL PURCHASE ALL INGREDIENTS AT THE STORE TOMORROW AND FIX THIS !! THIS LOOKS YUMMY !! THANK YOU !! 😊

I'm eating Slapped Together Chicken Soup while watching this. I used celery leaves as a sub for fresh parsley. Not the same, but it makes me feel like there's fresh something leafy in there.

Ok. I was a minced garlic user but took your advice and omg. You are right !! The flavor! I’m converted :) thank you!

Hi i love your videos!☺️ and i’ve tried half of your recipes they’re amazing😍

Made this tonight for dinner after a long day at work. Couldn't have been more easy or delicious! Thank you!

Used fire roasted tomatoes 😍👌🏼, thank you for sharing these amazing recipes. You made me enjoy cooking again, just not doing dishes lol

Oh my!!! I've never eaten tortellini, much less the soup. Can't wait to make it!!! Hearty comfort food!! Thank you!!!

I will try this version. I tend to make the soups thicker and I am thinking that this thinner soup may work better. Thank you for the video! Have a brilliant day!

Looks great. I totally agree with you about the garlic. I’ve tried the paste and the jar of pellets…never more, never more. 🥘♥️

For years and years no matter what time of the year ..... no mater hot or cold weather (where I live is mostly hot all the time) I make soup every Monday. I call it soup Monday. Can't wait to put this into my rotation,

Omg... I just made this soup a couple of days ago...it was so easy and tasted amazing and I'm not even a good cook! I will be making again soon!! I added a little bit of can corn!

Just finished cooking this soup. It is divine!!! I added mushrooms but other than that stayed true to your recipe. My husband devoured two bowls. Did I already say it is divine?

I love soup. Any soup. They are so easy and healthy.

This was so easy and very delicious it came together exactly as you stated and in that 30 minute time frame, 30 minutes prep and all and to taste that delicious. This is a winner. Thanks for sharing and introducing this recipe. Will definitely make it again.

Amazing how you come up with so many great recipes and still be entertaining - thanks to you I’ve become quite a good baker and cook- I’m also twenty pounds heavier - thanks 😮😮

I made this with my family and they absolutely loved it😊😊😊😊

I L💗VE it when you tsk tsk us !!!!! Even though I’m guilty of minced garlic in a tube. 🥴🙄Please tell us why powdered would be better than pre-minced.

I made this tonight for our dinner and made yeast rolls to go with it. So delicious! Thank you😊

Made this tonight and followed your recipe exactly……it is amazing and will put this on my list of theeeee greatest soups. Thank you

I’ve made this before and it is delicious!! Cannot wait to make your version! Received your book for my Birthday and love it❤

I use leftover shredded rotisserie chicken for my tortellini soup and it tastes amazing

Hi John, this soup is wonderful, we just had it last night and it was so delicious. Tonight should be even better! I can see this being the base for so many tasty variations. Take care and be well.

I made the soup last night and my grandson had 3 bowl's!!!! Delicious 🤤. Thanks!

Looking good as always John! 😋 😋

I made this soup today it turned out delicious 😋 I just love it thank you so much for this amazing recipe 🥰🙂

I made this soup for dinner last night...the only thing I changed was that I added a tablespoon of brown sugar to cut the acidity of the tomatoes because I added more tomatoes that the recipe called for(we love tomatoes). I also added the basil with a little cooking time left to infuse the soup with the basil. This was absolutely delicious!!!! Thank you for a wonderful recipe!

OMG I am so happy I came across your channel. I have made some of the cookies and they are tops. This was my fist time making any of your savoury recipe and it was a hit. I used pumpkin and feta ravioli because I couldn’t find any cheese tortellini but I think it was sooooo goood :)

I love tortellini- yes Italian wedding soup my all time fav

My kids and I love all your soup recipes. I made your chicken noodle soup for supper tonight. Thanks for sharing.

Made this soup vegetarian and it was awesome! Thanks for the recipe, this has been added to my winter dinner rotation.

Risotto please! I’ve been waiting for that video! ❤

Soup looks really delicious, colorful and it is great for this super cold snowy day. Our temperature is minus 35 degree freezing cold.

Amazing, as always!😋 Can't wait to try it, Thanks again for another great video!!

I just made this the other day, before I even saw this video. I just used cabbage rather than spinach, but I'd love to try it with spinach and basil since that would be easier.

I received an email from you, John, with this soup in it. I thought it looked delicious and planned to make it for our weekly dinner with the grandkids. As I was getting my ingredients together, I realized I had half of a 28 oz jar of Rao marinara sauce on hand. I decided to use just that and veg broth (I kept it vegetarian - no sausage). It was a huge hit. I love how easy it is and the spinach makes it a complete meal. Thank you! As for other soups, how about mulligatawny?

You make the best recipes 😋 I really hope you are doing well 😉

Looks delicious. I have a similar Cooking Light recipe that calls for cannellini beans instead of sausage. Balsamic vinegar instead of onions and garlic. Yum

Thanks so much always,but I’m so happy to see your soups!☕️

What's for dinner tonight Mama?? Tortellini soup!!!

Love it! 👍

Dude. That looks great

Very nice recipie Jonh! They looks amazing! Have a nice day and good weekend! Have a good week! 👍👏🍴

So the secret ingredient is "Love". I will try it looks delicious 😋

best cooking show on utube ever...making this for my friends

Minestrone is my favorite soup 🥣 tortellini addition sounds fabulous

John, I would love to see you show us your version of an Orange-Fennel Bread. I've made that recipe from one of my cookbooks a couple of times. First time, I used the all-purpose flour with the rye and the second time I used the bread flour with the rye. It's the kneading that's tricky because it's a hydrated dough. I love the flavor, but I think I'm going to try allowing it to rest longer when I try it again to see if it doesn't improve the texture. I would so appreciate it if you would show us your version of this wonderful bread.

I made this today for lunch on a rainy day! Thought there would be leftovers but my whole family devoured it even took another bowl XDDD Thank you for the amazing recipe!

Lol A.H. & John I thought the same thing. Italian wedding soup / Mexican wedding soup . Mmm a favorite.

Thank you for posting! Looks delicious! ❤

Thank you for this recipe I've been waiting for one like this.

Amazing! Add a parmesan rind to the cooking liquid. I can't wait to make this asap

Just made this. Its a slam dunk!

Not a request but John I have to tell you…we use your pizzelle recipe and my Italian family LOVES them. Best recipe for pizzelle I’ve found! And same goes for your Mac and cheese recipe…never received so many compliments!

I've been watching Preppy Kitchen for a while and just saw I wasn't subscribed! Fixed that real quick. If you're open to suggestions, I'd love for you to make "Hummingbird Cake". My grandmother made a wonderful Hummingbird Cake but she got Alzheimer's and never wrote down her recipe. I think your version would be lovely- you have a gift for blending classic and modern in your recipes. Thanks Preppy Kitchen!

This will be excellent for this weekend. Will be below 0 at night here in Millbrook NY! Brrr!

Thank you for this recipe! I made it tonight & it's a new favorite!!

As a foodie and language lover I just loved factoid about tortellini 😅❤ I could almost smell the soup while watching that’s how yum it looks!

totally agree about the garlic

Followed your recipe and enjoyed my very delicious soup! Can’t wait to see your next soup recipe-Thank you 💕💃🏻

I made it. Delicious. Thank you 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽😋

Another fab recipe!

Hi John, really enjoy your cooking and baking skills. I noticed someone requested zucchini bread, how about banana bread also. Your baking skills are perfection.

Yummy !

This is a winner. Will definitely include that in my personal meal rotation. Thank you. ☺

That looks soooo good right now! If I had it next to me, I'd eat at least half the pot in one sitting. Have you ever done a lentil soup? How about a butternut squash soup? Extra points if you can do the latter without adding cream.

This soup is so good and so easy to make. It is now one of my go-to’s!

Not sure if you’ve done this already (sorry if you did and I missed it) but could you make a beef stew? That’s one of my favorites, especially when it’s cold outside. Thank you in advance if you do!

I made this for dinner. Really good and easy! Thanks for sharing!

Thank goodness, I had all the ingredients and now what's simmering on the stove? Your tortellini soup! And I got your book last week. It's amazing and I highly! highly! recommend.

Made this today!!!! My gosh, soooo good!!!! And super easy!!!!! Thank you!

Really Love It 💗 Gonna Try It

I'm going to try this version... I've made a version that uses chicken & heavy cream and it's really good.

I love your kitchen! Thank you for this recipe!!!

John, by the by a kid friend of mine , ( 20 yrs next month , lol) last wk, was telling me how much he loved wedding 'bell' soup. I didn't have the heart to correct him. I will at a later date make fun of him ,of course. I whole heartedly approve of your tort soup. Thank you.

I became a subscriber a few days ago - your recipes are wonderful!! I just added the ingredients for this soup to my grocery list - thanks!! ❣️
