Italian Spinach Soup by John Spottiswood

Suprise, surprise. Another amazing recipe adapted from Marcella Hazan's Essential's of Italian Cooking. This is one of my bibles.

It has similar ingredients as the first one I posted (see “Useful Links” below), is less spicy and requires a longer cook time. Here are some things I liked about this one: (1) ease of preparation - just dump everything in the pot (2) a generous…
