Egg soup (a.k.a. Stracciatella)

Preparation: 5 mins
Cooking: 2-3 mins
    
Difficulty: Easy
    
Vegetarian

Very easily prepared soup, so easy that I am not sure it should stay in the main recipe categories, so I have decided to put it in the top tips section. Anyway, when you are desperate, in a hurry, cold, without ideas and lots of eggs in the fridge, this is the soup which will feed all the family.

SERVES 4

Ingredients:

• 3 Eggs
• 50 g (2 oz) Parmesan cheese (grated)
• 1 Round tablespoon of vegetable stock
• Pepper and nutmeg for seasoning

Directions:

Grate the Parmesan cheese.

Put the 3 eggs in the bowl.

Whisk energetically.

Add the Parmesan cheese and whisk until the mixture is well mixed.

Put 1 litre (1 ¾ pints) of water into a pan and bring it to boil. Then add the vegetable stock and give a stir.

Pour the egg and Parmesan mixture into the pan and start whisking.

Whisk for 2 minutes and then take the pan off the cooker.

Put the soup into the bowl and sprinkle with pepper and a small pinch of nutmeg. Serve and eventually season with salt according to taste.

Buon appetito!
