I made this exactly as written. I thought it was fine but nothing special. This was my first time using salt pork and I think I would have liked this recipe more if I used another seasoning meat, or perhaps no meat. For me the herbs need to be dialed in a bit more too so I'd suggest perusing some other recipes to get some ideas so you can make adjustments to this recipe if need be. With a little tobacco it ended up tasting good though.

So worth the time it takes to make. Made this for my 100% Italian mother-in-law shortly after I married. I think it won her over permanently because she told me it reminded her of the minestrone made by her own mother. It's that authentically Italian and that good. It's a meal and more. Look for a great crusty bread to serve with this one.
