Stracciatelle gets its name from the ragged (stracciata in Italian) appearance of the eggs in this traditional soup. Serve with crostini topped with flaked tuna, endive, scallion, and parsley.

Number Of Ingredients 5

6 cups homemade or low-sodium canned chicken stock
4 large eggs, lightly beaten
2 tablespoons fresh flat-leaf parsley, roughly chopped, plus more for garnish
2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for garnish
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan, bring the stock to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low; keep at a gentle simmer.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs and parsley. Using a fork, stir stock in a quick circular motion, creating a whirlpool; pour in the egg mixture in a steady stream. Sprinkle in cheese; season with salt and pepper. Ladle into bowls; garnish with parsley and cheese.
