Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Why is it called Italian Wedding Soup?
A: The name refers to the “marriage” of flavors between meat and greens — not an actual wedding.

Q: Can I make the meatballs in advance?
A: Yes. Roll and refrigerate them for up to 24 hours, or freeze and cook later.

Q: Can I skip browning the meatballs?
A: Yes, you can add them directly to the broth, but browning adds extra flavor.

Q: What pasta works best?
A: Acini di pepe is classic, but ditalini, orzo, or tiny shells also work.
