Erbe in cucina - Ricetta: Stracciatella

Recipe: Stracciatella (Egg Soup)
Souper Sundays

January 18, 2010

I was on my way home during a cold morning, and I really needed a hot meal.
More: hot and nourishing. And tasty too, of course.
Uhm, maybe with an aromatic fresh herb from my garden...

I remembered Stracciatella, a traditional italian egg soup that I often eated as a child, when my mother served me with very small puffs. When I was a child, I admit that the puffs were the most exciting part of the dinner, but now this hot soup was all that I needed.

Stracciatella (Egg Soup)

Ingredients
Serves two:
750ml beef broth
2 eggs
1 bunch of parsley
2 tbsp durum wheat flour
30g grated parmesan
black pepper

Directions
Bring the broth to a boil.
Beat the eggs with durum flour and parmesan, then pour into the broth and cook them.
Add minced parsley and freshly ground black pepper.
