Stracciatella Soup
Stracciatella Soup is an Italian egg-drop classic where whisked eggs, Parmigiano-Reggiano, pecorino, and semolina stream into seasoned chicken broth to form delicate, tender ribbons. Light yet comforting, it balances savory depth with hints of nutmeg, parsley, and a touch of heat, perfect for a cozy dinner starter or a simple, satisfying meal in under half an hour.

While stirring the simmering broth, slowly pour the egg mixture into the pot. Bring the mixture back to a simmer. The liquid will look slightly cloudy at first and will clear as the broth heats.
