Ingredients

  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and flour to make a smooth batter.
  2. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and pour a ladleful of batter into the pan, swirling to coat the bottom evenly. Cook the crepe for about 1-2 minutes on each side until lightly golden. Repeat with the remaining batter to make 12 crepes.
  3. Roll up each crepe and slice them into thin strips to form the "scrippelle."
  4. In a separate pot, bring the chicken broth to a simmer and add the "scrippelle" strips. Cook for 5-7 minutes until the crepes are heated through.
  5. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Serve the Scrippelle 'mbusse hot in bowls, with extra Parmesan cheese on the side if desired.
