The story behind

This recipe is a homemade variant of the famous 'Zuppa Toscana'. As seen in the image, the dish stands out for its vibrant orange broth, a result of the chorizo juices, and is packed with sausage slices, potato cubes, and kale leaves that retain their texture. Served in a simple white bowl, it is a complete meal that balances savory, spicy, and earthy flavors.

Instructions

  1. 1
    In a large pot, brown the chorizo slices until they release their fat and are cooked through.
  2. 2
    Add the potato cubes and red pepper flakes, stirring to coat them in the chorizo flavor.
  3. 3
    Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes until potatoes are tender.
  4. 4
    Stir in the kale and cook for another 5 minutes until softened but still green, as shown in the photo.
  5. 5
    If desired, stir in the heavy cream at the end to mellow the broth.
  6. 6
    Serve hot in a deep bowl.
