What Exactly Is Stracciatella?
Stracciatella is an Italian soup made from chicken broth and beaten eggs, which is typically mixed with Parmesan cheese, parsley, and other seasonings. The egg mixture is stirred into hot broth, creating thin strands or shreds of cooked egg that float in the soup. It is commonly served as a first course in Italian cuisine. Stracciatella can also refer to a type of gelato that contains shreds or flakes of chocolate.
