Servings 8 servings
Ingredients
- 6-7 russet potatoes
- 2 tsp salt
- 2 cups bone broth
- 2 cups water
- 1 tbsp dried rosemary
- 1/2 tsp salt
- mild Italian sausage I used Mulays
- 2 cups pea shoots for garnish
- black pepper for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Coarsely chop potatoes and add to a large soup pot. Cover the potatoes in water. Add 2 tsp salt and bring to a light boil for 30 minutes or until soft.
- Drain water and return to stove
- Add broth and, if needed, additional water to make sure all potatoes are fully submerged in liquid.
- Stir in rosemary and last 1/2 teaspoon salt and simmer on medium-low heat for 15 minutes
- Meanwhile, saute the sausage on the skillet on medium high, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon so you have small crumbles of sausage. Saute until golden brown, about 10-15 minutes.
- When the sausage is almost done, use an immersion blender to puree the soup until mostly smooth, leaving some large pieces of potatoes for texture.
- Ladle the soup into bowls and top with fresh sausage and a pinch of fresh pea shoots
