Stracciatella (Easy Italian Soup Addition Using Eggs)

Ingredients

  • 2 eggs
  • 3 Tbsp dried breadcrumbs ((or semolina))
  • 3 Tbsp Parmigiano Reggiano cheese ((grated))
  • ¼ tsp Kosher salt ((or sea salt))
  • ⅛ tsp black pepper ((to taste))
  • ⅛ tsp fresh Italian parsley ((chopped, a sprinkle))

Steps

  1. 1

    Beat the eggs in a small bowl and add the breadcrumbs/semolina

  2. 2

    Next, add the Parmigiano cheese, salt, pepper and parsley, if using, and mix well.

  3. 3

    The consistency will be like a runny paste. When the pastina is ready, drain the water and add it to the simmering Italian chicken soup or broth you are using. Next, pour in the stracciatella mixture, and stir it into the soup. It will immediately turn fluffy and float on top of the soup.

  4. 4

    Serve immediately.
