ITALIAN STRACCIATELLA SOUP

Steps:

• In a medium to large pot bring the broth to a boil.
• In a small bowl beat together the eggs then add the parmesan cheese, and nutmeg (if desired). Beat until well combined. If you don't like nutmeg then a sprinkling of lemon zest before serving is also favourite with Romans.
• Add the egg mixture to the boiling broth in a slow steady stream while mixing with a whisk, let cook for about 3-4 minutes. Once the mixture boils again*, give it another whisk and then serve. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley or more parmesan cheese if desired.

STRACCIATELLA ALLA ROMANA (ROMAN EGG DROP SOUP)

Steps:

• Set a large Dutch oven or soup pot over medium-high heat. Add oil. When it shimmers, add the onions and a generous pinch of salt. Reduce heat to medium. Stirring occasionally, cook onions for 10 to 15 minutes until tender. It's fine if they start to take on a little color.
• In a large measuring cup or medium bowl with a spout, thoroughly whisk together the eggs, ½ cup grated Parmesan, nutmeg, black pepper, and a generous pinch of salt.
• When onions are tender, add Parmesan rind and stock to pot. Increase heat to high and bring to a boil. Reduce to a strong simmer. While gently whisking soup with one hand, pour egg mixture into pot in a thin stream with the other. Once all of the egg mixture has been added, turn off the heat. Remove Parmesan rind. Taste and adjust for salt.
• Ladle soup into bowls and serve immediately, garnished with Parmesan, black pepper, and parsley.
