    I love sausage in soups. But here’s the problem. Almost every soup recipe I come across will use the sausage to add flavor to the soup. That’s a great intention, but (in my opinion) it’s actually a total fail. If you boil it for any extended period of time, all the flavor will go into the broth. And then you’re left with flavorless sausage. This Instant Pot sausage potato and kale soup delivers!

    Check out the recipe below to see how to retain the crispiness of the sausage.
