What flavor is Italian sausage?

Italian sausage is a type of pork-based sausage that is popular in many Italian dishes. It typically contains pork, salt, fennel seed, pepper, and other seasonings. The flavor varies depending on the ingredients used and the cooking method employed. Generally speaking, it has a robust and savory flavor with a hint of spice. Italian sausage can be used in a variety of dishes including pastas, pizzas, soups, stews, and sandwiches. It is often served as an appetizer or alongside other Italian favorites like breads and cheeses. When cooked correctly it has a nice crisp exterior with a juicy interior.

Spinach

Spinach is such a versatile ingredient to add to recipes near the end of their cooking time. It just needs a few minutes to wilt and absorb the cooking sauce. I always have a pack in the refrigerator to add to meals or smoothies.

What we think

“Really delicious flavors in this recipe. I would call this a hearty stew not a soup as its so filling. If I wasn’t keto I would dip in crusty white bread but I didn’t need this, it was so satisfying. I loved knowing that by 9 o’clock in the morning I has dinner ready for the evening. The recipe card stated that it served 8. There were four of us for dinner, and we had the leftovers for lunch the following day, and that was spectacular as the flavors had infused further. I would give this stew-soup 5 out 5.”
