We enjoyed. An excellent combination of seasonings. Used sweet Italian sausages. Did cut back on the garlic as I only had five cloves. Found the five cloves made for a lovely garlicy flavor. Also added most of the two tablespoons of flat leaf parsley when stirring in the butter leaving just a touch for sprinkling the top. Served in bowls along with crusty rolls. Thank you for sharing this delicious recipe Umberle.
