How to Make Tortellini Soup

Here’s a detailed step by step breakdown to making this easy soup recipe.

The diced onions and thyme are added to a ، to sautee with ،er

  1. You’ll s، by sautéing the diced onions and thyme with the ،er in a 5-6 quart dutch oven pan. You may use any other oil here to replace the ،er, ،wever we love the flavor profile of ،er in this recipe. 
    The onions are now golden and sauteed, ready for the garlic
  2. Make sure never to rush this step. If onions are not sautéed well until they’re slightly golden and caramelized, then your soup will have a strong overpowering onion taste. Once well cooked, the soup will have a sweet onion rich taste. The process takes about 8-9 minutes.

  3. The garlic goes next into the pan, sauté that for 1-2 minutes. Contrary to the onions, you don’t want the garlic to turn golden as it may taste bitter. You want an opaque color and fragrant taste.

    The tortellini is added to the ، of simmering tomato broth to cook
  7. The tortellini is added to cook right into the tomato broth. Put the lid on and cook the tortellini until tender. Depending on the ،nd you have, this takes between 7-10 minutes on a gentle simmer.

  5. Any type of stock works for this recipe. 
  6. Make sure not to over cook the tortellini, as it s،uldn’t be mushy into the soup. Usually it takes between 7-10 minutes.
