Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 c fine dry bread crumbs
2 1/2 c parmigiano reggian finely grated
3 large eggs
2 qt chicken stock
1 c parsley leaves
extra parm for serving

Steps:

  • 1. Mix the bread crumbs, Parmigiano, and eggs together. If it's too sticky add more bread crumbs if it is crumbly add a little water. Let the dough rest for 15 minutes.
  • 2. Place stock in a large pot and bring it to a boil. The best way to form the Passatelli is to put the dough through a meat grinder with large whole. Can be rolled by hand. You even make it into little balls.
  • 3. Drop the Passatelli into the boiling stock and cook until the Passatelli floats to the top. Turn off heat and let the Passatelli sit in the stock for two hours. Warm it up and throw in the Parsley and garnish with extra Parmigiano
