BREAKFAST SOUP AKA BACON AND EGG SOUP



Breakfast Soup Aka Bacon and Egg Soup image

This is the soup I came up with when my son issued me a challenge! He and my husband, his Dad, play golf very early in the morning....even through the winter, unless there is snow on the ground. One morning, he asked if I could come up with a breakfast soup for their next excursion. It turned out so well, we've had it numerous times since.

Number Of Ingredients 15

3/4-1 lb bacon, cut crosswise into 1/2 inch pieces
4 tablespoons bacon drippings
5 tablespoons flour
9 -10 cups water
8 chicken bouillon cubes
1/4 teaspoon white pepper
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon salt (depending upon the saltiness of the bouillon)

1/2 teaspoon instant onion flakes
4 eggs, well beaten
1/8 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
2 tablespoons dried parsley flakes
3 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
italian style breadstick (optional)

Steps:

  • In Dutch oven, cook bacon until crisp, stirring occasionally to keep pieces separate.
  • Remove and drain bacon; keep warm.
  • Discard all but 4 tablespoons of the drippings.
  • Over medium heat, stir the flour into the drippings, blending well.
  • Cook roux over medium heat for two minutes, stirring constantly.
  • Add water, bouillon cubes (or substitute 9-10 cups ready made chicken bouillon) both kinds of pepper and salt (if using).
  • Heat to boiling, stirring frequently, until slightly thickened and bouillon cubes are dissolved.
  • Add freshly grated potatoes and instant onion; simmer for ten minutes.
  • In bowl, mix eggs, nutmeg, parsley and Parmesan cheese.
  • Stir into simmering soup and continue stirring constantly for three minutes.
  • Eggs will separate into "rags"--just like the classic Italian Straciatella Soup.
  • Stir in the reserved bacon pieces and serve immediately with Italian style breadsticks, which are optional.
