Tortellini Soup Recipe
Description
Tortellini Soup Recipe starts by softening minced garlic, chopped celery, sliced carrot, and chopped onion in butter until tender. These vegetables contribute gentle sweetness and depth to the broth. Chicken broth and water are then added and brought to a boil before the tortellini are stirred in and the soup is simmered until the pasta is tender, following package cooking times.
The seasoning with kosher salt and ground black pepper is straightforward, ensuring the natural flavors from the broth and vegetables shine. Fresh parsley adds a mild herbal note, and freshly grated Parmesan cheese can be included at serving for additional umami and creaminess.
This soup is satisfying on its own or can be served with crusty bread. Its slightly creamy texture from the butter and cheese complements the delicate tortellini shape. It works well as a light lunch or starter for a larger meal.
