You might notice that the taste tester is about 5 inches shorter and that I have a Christmas tree up.😂 We ran out of time last year and didn't want to publish this video in the spring, so figured it was better to save it for this fall. The ingredient amounts (also in grams) are right in the description and the print recipe is linked there as well. As always, thanks for liking our recipes and videos and sharing our family table each week.
Looks great can't wait to make it 👍
Looks delicious 😋 great Fall soup 😊
Never had this dish, but love, love tortellini ❣️
I’m not fond of cooked celery but I would devour this regardless. With some crusty garlic bread!10/10 ❤
I am totally addicted to your recipes. They are ALWAYS wonderful! Thank you❤
10! 10! All the way!,,😋😋😋😋looks gooood,
I made this immediately!!!! It’s raining all day so this was the perfect rainy fall day comfort food. I have to agree with your taste tester that some broccoli would be amazing in this
Almost to 1M people, please this guy made me a hero dad to my girls, let’s get him there!!!
Great recipe; I’ve made this before, alternating either spinach or kale and for my son (per his request) I also add in some rotisserie chicken when it’s almost done; he loves his chicken and swears it makes this soup perfect 😃 thanks for posting this great recipe (it really is perfect the way you made it imo)!
Thanks for the recipe.
In regards to the "trees” – that’s what my sons called broccoli and cauliflower were tress with snow.
Agree with James, the Italian sausage inside the tortellini would be great.
Amazing! We're just coming into proper Spring here in New Zealand, this is the perfect time for this dish over here.
What a great time! You guys have fun and teach us along the way.
The 'meat mashers' are also available in the $$ Dollar stores for $! to $1.50.
I don't think I've ever liked the idea of sausage tortellini soup until just now. Thank you – I will definitely try this.
That’s a 10 for me. I’ve made it nearly the same way and it’s scrumptious
i watch for the ratings and james' rationalizations lololol hysterical and cute as hell
I like how he matches the chair in the background 😋
looks like a winner..will replace meat w/ mrngst farms links ..
Tough grader this kid! That soup looks like a 10 to me!
He’s the best dad. Spend every second with ur kids, they grow and leave faster than the grass. 🤙🏼
Love it! 👍
I was really hoping he'd give his Dad a rating of 1 to 10. 😅
It's getting cooler-ish in SoCal. Well, what we call "fall & winter". The climate amounts to no more than a hoodie or light jacket for me anyway. But this time of year, I hit up Costco's Chicken Noodle soup and Chili when I get lazy and don't feel like make any soups on the stove or crock pot. But I'll save this one and keep it around. I try not to do heavy cream recipes due to the fat content and I know you mentioned it can be left out but where's the fun in that? I'll make it and give some away so I don't scarf it all down by my lonesome since I just cook for me.
Thank you.
I made this soup today. And it is delicious.! 🧑🍳One thing different was I made a roux separately using some butter and the broth.
Always love the taste tester's commentary!! And this looks fantastic, just in time for the start of soup season.
It looks delicious 😋
Thanks for sharing another great recipe. Would a sage sausage like a Jimmy Dean's be appropriate for this type of recipe? I'm trying to clear some out of my freezer. Thanks!
it's kind of interesting, for decades we had directions like brown the meat. It was expected that you were going to cook the meat but it wouldn't necessarily be browned fully. It wouldn't have that sear that you see a lot of people trying to get now. At some point, really with the rise of the internet cook, we've extended the meaning of things so far as to mean the most accurate depiction of meanings and we've lost…past knowledge but also just past common sense cooking. It's almost this robotic adherence to structure. It's interesting…it's odd but interesting.
Yea, he's matching the living room chair once again. Ooops … just realized this video was taken late last year and published today.
I was getting Marco Pierre White vibes when you were talking about the browning or not browning of the sausage. When he talks about cooking, he’s very often loose in what you should do, or how exactly it should be done.

Flat wooden spoon = flatula
I make a similar soup (excluding the tomato paste and wine but include spinach or kale) all the time as it’s one of our favorites. To make things easier I just purchase spicy Italian sausages (4 pack) and remove the filling from the casings. To get things started, I break the sausage meat into pieces by hand as I add them to the pot. Whichever recipe, it’s a great fall and winter soup!
Aldi sells a really great ground sausage. I got my meat masher at Dollar Tree, it's the same thing sold elsewhere for more money. BTW, a skinny spatula, the type used to scrape the last of the mayo or mustard out of the jar, is great for getting all of your tomato paste out of the can or bowl!
One of the things I like best about your channel is that you get right into the recipe! There's no "introductory" bit with music, animations or photos. Please keep doing it your way!

James is a true food critic after all these years of testing. He is on his way to be a first class chef! Thanks, James
James for the win!
There is no better Dad rating from a teenage son than "He gets the job done."
Almost to 1 million! Congrats.
Ive been making a similar recipe for about ten years since i made it in cooking class back in highschool.
The only difference was no cream or wine, diced tomatoes instead of paste.m and hamburger instead of sausage.
Hands down my top 3 soups, right next to zuppa tuscana 😋
Been awhile since i made it last and this video reminded me, I think ill try it with sausage next time. Thanks!
Also, ive always cooked my meats good before adding them into anything, until an extremely underrated cook on YouTube mentioned that he had a life changing chili that made first place in a chili contest and learned from the cooks that one of their secrets was to add everything all at once instead of browning the meat seprate from the rest of the operation. Just add everything and cook in the pot, does something good to the flavor and texture/consistency.
Since I've learned this, ive already gotten a "this is the best you've made it yet" 😊
So its definitely a good and underrated method. 🎉
Thanks for sharing! Perfect as the weather is getting colder. Can't wait to make this!
I almost always brown stuff when I cook, but it's important to remember that not everything needs it. Sometimes more delicate vegetables or herbs are what I'm wanting to accentuate in a recipe. As such, I don't brown anything too aggressively as that is a very full bodied flavour that can easily overpower more subtle things.
No right or wrong amount but rather it is about what you're making and which ingredients you wanna highlight! Thanks for clarifying that for people
Why does the chair keep changing?!?! It’s insanity!!!!!
