The Sardinian soup s’erbuzzu is brothy and bold, but it’s still fresh and light thanks to handfuls of fresh herbs. More than a dozen, actually. And when the cooks at Christopher Kimball’s Milk Street came across it, they knew it would be a satisfying weeknight meal. The soup includes fregola, little balls of pasta that add substance. To make the recipe easier for an American home cook, they pared it down to what had the most impact. That's parsley for grassiness, tarragon for sweet anise…
