Method

  1. Steam the potato slices (prepared in the previous video) until tender.
  2. Cut the onion into wedges, including the stem (nothing wasted).
  3. In a pot, sauté the onion in a drizzle of olive oil until softened.
  4. Add the washed potato scraps (peels and trimmings), broth, marjoram, oregano, salt, and pepper. Cook for 10-12 minutes.
  5. Meanwhile, in a separate pan, sauté a Tropea onion cut into rings in oil with a pinch of salt until slightly crunchy. Set aside.
  6. In the same pan, toast the stale olive bread with a drizzle of olive oil until aromatic.
  7. Blend the soup with an immersion blender until smooth and creamy.
  8. To serve, place some sautéed Tropea onion, a potato rose, a piece of pecorino cheese, and toasted bread on a plate. Pour the creamy soup around and finish with a drizzle of olive oil.
