I tried everything to save this soup since I used my own homemade stock. Bland and the texture is so unappealing.

Wow, its hows that with just a few simple fresh ingredients fantastic food is possible. Used fine semolina since cornmeal was not on hand but still great results.

The soup is great and extremely simple...typical of most of MB's reciepies. Start with a little panchetta - bacon and spinach are a natural couple - then after it is rendered and a bit crispy, add the garlic and a bit of red pepper flakes for a few seconds then the spinach. Super. The cornmeal adds a nice additional flavor that you don't expect in this soup. Great!!!!

I made this literally an hour before I left for the airport after realizing that I had a quantity of spinach that would go bad on my trip. I froze it for the 2 weeks I was gone and it was deliciously waiting for me when I got back!

When I read the recipe for this soup, I though it sounded like a lot of work for not much reward. But then again, I had loads of spinach I needed to use up, so I gave it a whirl. It turned out FANTASTIC! How could I have doubted Mario? Instead of making his stock, I added about a half a small can of pasted to the regular stock. My friends were astounded that they liked spinach soup. I've made this several times since then, and absolutely adore it!
