How to make Stracciatella and Burrata

parmesan cheese

chicken broth

🥗Healthier: vegetable broth

💰Cheaper: water with bouillon cubes

Vegetable broth is a lighter option, while bouillon is more economical.

Heat 3 cups of chicken broth in a large pot over medium heat until simmering.

Add 1/4 chopped onion, 1 chopped carrot, and 1 chopped celery stalk; cook until softened, about 5 minutes.

Stir in 1 minced garlic clove and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Add 1 bay leaf and 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg; simmer for 10 minutes to develop flavors.

Whisk 2 eggs in a bowl until well combined.

Slowly pour the eggs into the simmering broth while stirring gently to create ribbons.

Remove from heat; stir in 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese and 1 teaspoon lemon zest.

Season with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper to taste.

Chop 1 tablespoon of fresh parsley and sprinkle over the soup before serving.
