The Secret To A Flavorful Soup: Parmesan Rinds

One of the easiest ways to add flavor to soups, stews, and even braised meats is to toss a rind of parmigiano reggiano into the pot and let it simmer.  Though they're too hard to eat, the rinds of most hard cheeses are perfectly edible - it's the same cheese as the stuff you've been grating, just dried out from exposure to the air.

It brings a salty, umami-rich depth to any dish - and you get an extra use out of that precious wedge of Parmigiano Reggiano!

Try it with my Winter Minestrone, Pastina Soup, Pomodoro Sauce, or Pork Ragout. Or, make up a batch of my Parmesan Brodo for a hearty vegetarian broth to swap in for chicken stock in any recipe.

    My local Whole Foods sells these all the time. Love adding them into soups. Also, once they soften up, delish for snacking!
