Stracciatella (Easy Italian Soup Addition Using Eggs)
Report
A traditional Italian addition to chicken soup made with eggs, cheese and semolina or breadcrumbs.
Share:
Ingredients
- 2 egg
- 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 Italian parsley chopped, a sprinkle, fresh
Instructions
- Beat the eggs in a small bowl and add the breadcrumbs/semolina
- Next, add the Parmigiano cheese, salt, pepper and parsley, if using, and mix well.
- 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.
- Serve immediately.
Notes
- Please note that the measurements for the egg/breadcrumb (or semolina)/cheese ingredients are not critical. I never measure them, but I do use equal amounts of crumbs and cheese. Sometimes it's thicker, and sometimes more runny, but it always tastes great.
- Parsley is not a typical addition, but it can be added for more flavor and color.
