How To Cook: |
|
|
1. In a small bowl, beat the eggs until they are just blended; then mix in the cheese, parsley, nutmeg and salt. Bring the chicken stock to a bubbling boil in a heavy 2- to 3-quart saucepan over high heat.
|
2. Pour in the egg mixture, stirring gently and constantly with a whisk, and simmer, still stirring, for 2 or 3 minutes.
|
3. The egg-and-cheese mixture will form tiny flakes in the stock. Taste for seasoning, then ladle the soup into a tureen or individual soup bowls and serve it at once.
