Recipe: Stracciatella (Egg soup) with parsley

Soups with aromatic herbs
January 18, 2010


ParsleyI 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.

I have always wanted to try this soup. It looks so very warming and comforting! But most of all delicious.

It sounds so easy, and good. But, what were those puffs you mentioned?
