Bread Gnocchi In Broth
Bread Gnocchi In Broth
(Gnocchi di Pane In Brodo)
 
 
Ingredients:
 
For the Vegetable Stock:
2 celery sticks, chopped
2 carrots, chopped
1 leek, trimmed and chopped
1 onion, chopped
Salt

For the Gnocchi:
4 oz (120 grams) breadcrumbs
2 oz (50 grams) Parmigiano cheese, freshly grated (plus extra for serving)
2 eggs
1 small fresh chive, chopped
Salt and pepper
 
Directions:
 
Prepare the Vegetable Stock:
Place all the vegetables in a saucepan.
 
Pour in 2 and 1/2 pints (1.5 liters) water, season with salt and bring to a boil.

Lower the heat and simmer for about 45 minutes.

Prepare the Gnocchi:
Mix together the breadcrumbs, Parmigiano cheese, eggs and half the chive in a bowl and season with salt and pepper. The mixture should be thick enough so, if necessary, add more breadcrumbs.

Shape the mixture into 1/2-inch (1-cm) balls.

Cut into short lengths and slightly flatten the middle with your finger.

Strain the vegetable stock into a clean pan and return to the heat.

Add the bread gnocchi to the stock. When they float to the surface they are ready.

Ladle into a soup tureen, sprinkle with the remaining chive and serve with Parmigiano cheese on the side. Serves 4.
 
That's it!
