Cooking with the Nuns

Season 8 Episode 809 | 26m 46s

Lidia attended school near the beautiful city of Trieste before coming to America and picked up many essential kitchen skills from the nuns who ran it. Inspired by the soups she had for school lunches, she prepares a Cannellini Bean and Lentil Soup, as well as a one pot meal of Sausages and Apples that can feed a hungry family.
