Ingredients

• 6 cups Vegetable broth
• 4 cups Fresh spinach
• 3 Large eggs
• 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 2 tablespoons Semolina flour
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Ground black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoons Nutmeg (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant but not browned.

Step 2

Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat.

Step 3

While the broth is warming, prepare the egg mixture. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, grated Parmesan cheese, semolina flour, salt, pepper, and nutmeg (if using) until well combined.

Step 4

Once the broth is simmering, stir in the fresh spinach and let it wilt for 1-2 minutes.

Step 5

Reduce the heat to low. Slowly drizzle the egg mixture into the pot while stirring the soup in a circular motion with a wooden spoon to create delicate ribbons, or 'stracciatella.'

Step 6

Let the soup cook for 2-3 minutes over low heat, just until the egg is fully set.

Step 7

Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper, if needed.

Step 8

Serve the soup hot with a drizzle of olive oil and extra grated Parmesan cheese on the side, if desired.
