Lettuce Soup with Fontina Gratin

This delicious soup features leeks, potatoes, and lettuce and is topped with a cheesy, crunchy Fontina cheese gratin. It’s a perfect winter weekend dish. Check out the recipe here - lidiasitaly.com/recipes/lettu...

Just made it and loved it. How simple. I used kale and escarole and added cannelloni beans , blended Fontina with Manchego, and added a dash of Vegeta for added oomph. I wasn't ready for how well the bread absorbed the broth making this much thicker. Wonderful!

[@1voiceCriesOut]

Never knew you could cook lettuces. Looks delicious.

[@anjiharrell6175]

I am just as much obsessed with this recipe as I am with Lidia’s refrigerator. ❤️

[@hollysweetland297]

I like Lydia's hair color on her. She looks great. So clean in her kitchen always. Nice bread on the soup😁

[@kathleenhardwick7650]

My Grandpa from Puglia used to make this for me When the first harvest of lettuces was almost over. What a beautiful memory.

[@kattrakee]

Finding a use for the not so perfect parts of the vegetable- that’s the way I cook!

[@TT-di4qz]

Me too!

[@reformerx667]

Haha... little bit of oil, little bit of butter... glug glug glug. This is an awesome recipe. Will have to make it next time I order the food in. Lydia, my Portobello mushrooms and cod have arrived. I am making your fish with mushrooms and onions for lunch tomorrow! Got some nice fennel to go with it.

[@christinakulick8096]

Have I told you lately how much I love watching you cook!

[@JS-xn3dq]

You’re the best, Lidia! Love your recipes. The one I’ve made the most often is the garlicky white bean soup (I have one of your books!).

[@ElizabethKlimas]

omg I did not know that you can make a soup from 🥬 lettuce, I ❤️💝Italian home cooking, delicious, I ❤️ the soup’s dishes, beautiful - love everything 💝💝💝 I will try to make this soup next time but I am very bad cook & can hardly compete for any good meal made by me. I am still working on making omelet in one piece. Worked all my life & dinned at work.☹️

[@Peggy69]

[@alexanderhughes9822]

I record all of your episodes and then I had to change my cable box and lost all of the episodes. I remembered this one and am so glad I found it! I don't recall there being another type of lettuce soup recipe and so now I can make it! Yes!

[@hensleyshobbies-doug7761]

[@mikebrady2073]

Tasty.

[@user-kl7zr1of5c]

Какая вы классная

[@Mistjoiedevie]

Does Lidia have any restaurants with these recipes and a delivery service because I can't tell you how much I wish I had a delicious meal like this for dinner. I love leeks and cheese. And lettuce soup I used to make it every spring but since have been quite ill so my home cooking time is down to making one dinner a week if I am lucky.

[@fatimatocuisine6544]

Goooooood

[@caspianblue4141]

👌🏻 Bellissimo delizioso!!

[@elizabethshaw734]

I live in the state with the highest grocery prices in the nation and they are going up everywhere and have gotten far worse here. That leek for this soup would cost me $9.99 and that would be the starting price! I don't buy $10 leeks as I am disabled but just letting people know.:-)

[@tigersaylor4256]

Thank you

[@gilbertmoreno4638]

Thought she used iceberg lettuce not. Looks delisioso.

[@susnorth40]

Tip. Cut the leek length wise and wash it under the tap. Saves on dishes.

[@susanbrinson9281]

Yummo!❤️

[@phillipsmom6252]

Yummy

[@cindywhitaker2821]

I had an Italian god mother. You remind me so much of her! You could be her twin! (I know I misspelled). Best to you darling

[@user-kd8vn9zp6r]

[@1voiceCriesOut]

I can't do the mushy bread🙃...but I'll do the cheese top😊

[@corryjookit7818]

Mmm to Lidyia. Wnderful fun with you.

[@meriemkb9352]

I love you lidia 💐 💐

[@olsenlibra623]

🍲+🍞+🧀=Mmm-MMM, This look perfectly delicious to have on a cold winter's day!!! But I have a question: do you normally supposed to discard bay leaves, or are they actually edible? They seem to get lost once you put them in the greens.

[@msr1116]

I have never known anyone to eat bay leaves, particularly the dried ones, which release flavor but don't soften to the point of being able to break down in the stomach. They run the risk of perforating the colon. My mom used bay leaves quite often and would always remove it from the food before serving.

[@LidiaBastianich]

Yes, usually the bay leaves are removed from the cooked recipe- they are too tough to eat, but impart a lot of flavor in cooking with them.

[@olsenlibra623]

@@LidiaBastianich Wow.. Thank You, Ms Lidia!

[@MsBruinboy]

I would be on 600lbs show if I ate all this delicious food you cook. Ugh!

[@phillipsmom6252]

Nothing she cooked here will make you fat. She used lots of healthy vegetables. If you’re so worried about it, leave out the bread and cheese.

[@denbrick2]

😊👏

[@DML_81]

I wonder if the lettuce makes the soup taste bitter? Can anyone let me know? I've literally NEVER cooked lettuce (and that's a big feat, since I'm a Chef, myself)!

[@MingayGamay]

[@LBStirlo]

So same concept as French onion with the bread and the cheese

[@shridharnadkarni5846]

you are a fantastic cook/chef,lidia but you have a tendency/propensity for overusing oil,regards

[@janethall2289]

Sand would be on the outside not on the inner leaves - wash the leekks first not after cutting

Where is Your "our" grandma, I hope that she was fine
