Great comforting soup on a cold late-winter night and great at using up older bread. Used onion-based broth, a jalapeno and added peas along with crispy bacon for a topping. Amazing dish!

As I write this I am making this soup. I simmered some parmigiana cheese rinds in my beef broth and used some garlic croutons that I had made for salad. I kept it fairly thin -- could use some fresh parsley perhaps.

Delicious. Added half a jalapeño minced and a rind or two of Parmesan along with the broth. It is extremely dense, a bit gooey, but with a generous handful of herbs, divine.

Okay, this is probably the most silly question in the world, but my mom thinks that there should be served some kind of meat with every dish, so my question is: what kind of meat dish can i serve with this?

This soup is SO dense that she may not feel that way once she has it- but in Italy, soup is a course, (as is pasta) so you often will see meat as the next course- I would recommend a pork roast or chop, but if you prefer beef, that would also be fine. The Tuscans are foodies and they like pretty much everything :)
