Stracciatella is a traditional Italian dish with variations ranging from soups to desserts. The name originates from the Italian word "straccia," meaning "shreds," referring to its signature texture. In its soup form, stracciatella is made by whisking eggs, Parmesan cheese, and sometimes semolina into hot broth, creating delicate strands. This comforting recipe is high in protein from the eggs and provides calcium from the cheese, but it can be rich in sodium depending on the broth used. Stracciatella can also refer to a gelato flavor, featuring a creamy vanilla base with fine chocolate shavings mixed throughout. While gelato is lower in fat compared to ice cream, stracciatella gelato is still calorie-dense and should be enjoyed in moderation. Both versions of stracciatella highlight Italian culinary artistry, offering a delicious treat or warming dish with varying levels of nutritional indulgence.
