Tip

Chopping Onions

I’ve found that the best way to chop onions with no tears is to place the cutting board on top of the stove and turn the vent fan on high. —Gloria D., Courtenay, British Columbia

Hi i want to make this but it says to bake the sausage's in their castings. I got that, but it never says to take them out of the castings. Can you eat them in their castings? Help!

This was a very tasty and easy soup. I made it with a wine and garlic chicken sausage from a local Fresh Market instead of the Italian sausage, and it turned out great!! Will certainly make it again!
