Our Pastina Soup is a lovely version of the Italian classic, often called “Italian penicillin soup.” Simple to prepare, it delivers comforting warmth in every bite! Garlic, Parmesan rind, onion, carrots, and celery simmer until tender and blend into a rich, flavorful broth. Ronzoni Pastina adds a delicate texture to this simple yet delicious soup.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups Ronzoni® Pastina
