Passatelli In Stock Recipes

Steps:

• Mix 3 eggs in a ceramic bowl. Add nutmeg and lemon zest. Beat this mixture with a wire whip. Add the cheese and the bread crumbs. Add salt to taste. *This consistency should be the same as a potato puree. If it comes out too hard, add some broth to soften it and if it comes out too soft, add some more bread crumbs. Heat the broth. While boiling, strain the dough using a strainer with large holes (3/8 of an inch diameter) directly into the boiling broth and lower the flame to avoid breakage which can occur from water that is boiling very rapidly. If you wish to save any leftovers, take a flat dish and sprinkle it with some bread crumbs and a pinch of flour. Place the Passatelli on it, cover with plastic wrap and freeze immediately.

Steps:

• Place the bread crumbs, Parmesan, nutmeg, and a pinch of salt in a large mixing bowl. Add the eggs and carefully mix together with your hands until it forms a soft dough-like consistency. Allow the dough to rest for approximately 20 minutes in a cool place. Once ready, place through a potato ricer to create short noodle-style pasta shapes.
• Bring the chicken stock to a boil. Add the pasta to the chicken stock. Once the passatelli have risen to the surface, they are ready to eat. Serve with a fresh tomato and basil sauce

Steps:

• Mix 3 eggs in a ceramic bowl. Add nutmeg and lemon zest. Beat this mixture with a wire whip. Add the cheese and the bread crumbs (see Cook's Note). Add salt to taste. Heat the broth. While boiling, strain the dough using a strainer with large holes (3/8 of an inch diameter) directly into the boiling broth and lower the flame to avoid breakage which can occur from water that is boiling very rapidly. If you wish to save any leftovers, take a flat dish and sprinkle it with some bread crumbs and a pinch of flour. Place the Passatelli on it, cover with plastic wrap and freeze immediately.

Steps:

• Beat eggs, lemon zest, salt, and nutmeg with an electric blender until foamy. Add Grana Padano cheese and bread crumbs and mix with your hands into an compact, yet soft dough. Cover and allow dough to rest in a cool place for at least 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, bring chicken broth to a boil in a large pot over high heat.
• Use a potato ricer to mash dough directly into the broth, forming small "snakes" about 2 to 3 inches in length. Use a sharp knife to cut passatelli directly from the bottom of the potato ricer so they drop into the water. Cook until passatelli float to the surface, about 5 minutes. Immediately scoop them out with a slotted spoon and drain.
• Transfer passatelli to soup bowls and serve with hot chicken broth.

Steps:

• In a bowl, whisk together the bread crumbs, cheese, pepper, nutmeg and 1/2 teaspoon salt. In another bowl, whisk the eggs, then stir them into the crumb mixture until just combined. Set aside.
• In a deep, wide soup pot, bring the broth just to a simmer and season with salt. Pass the dough through a potato ricer or passatelli maker into the broth and cook 1 minute. Ladle into bowls.
