Try this soup! Passatelli are a classic specialty from Emila-Romagna (Italy) the region where my father comes from. My children love this soup!

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

100 g parmesan cheese, grated
100 g breadcrumbs, small
3 eggs (small ones or 2 big ones)
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1 lemon, zest only
1 1/2 liters broth, if possible homemade (beef or hen broth with celery, carrots and leek)

Steps:

  • Place the bread crumbs, Parmesan, nutmeg and the lemon zest in a large mixing bowl. Add the eggs and carefully mix together with your hands until it forms a soft dough-like consistency.
  • The mixture should be like a wet dough, barely holding together.
  • If it seems too stiff, add 1 tablespoon water or stock. If it's too soft, add more breadcrumbs and Parmesan.
  • Allow the dough to rest for approximately 20 minutes in a cool place.
  • Once ready, put the dough in a food mill or ricer. Press to create short noodles (like little worms).
  • Bring the meat stock to a boil and add the pasta. Once the passatelli have risen to the surface, they are ready to eat.
  • Serve immediately.

I would have liked the soup to be a bit thicker, but overall it was very good.
