La Rousse Gastronomique: minestra - a vegetable soup; minestrina - a lighter soup; minestrone - mixed vegetable soup containing rice or pasta. LRG also says variety of veg/type of pasta varies from region to region, as does whether it is served with grated cheese (separately) or pesto. The average canned/restaurant minestrone is an insult to soup, thin and tasteless.

Do we trust the French on Italian dishes? They probably have an ulterior motive :)

Probably not, given that we've been annoying them for a thousand years, but LRG has been known to be reliable.
