Scrippelle 'mbusse Alla Teramana: Teramo-style Crepes In Broth
Scrippelle 'mbusse alla Teramana, or Teramo-Style Crepes in Broth, is a traditional dish from the Abruzzo region of Italy. This comforting and hearty soup features delicate crepes served in a rich, flavorful broth.
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1/2 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 8 cups chicken or vegetable broth
- Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, flour, milk, Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, nutmeg, salt, and pepper until smooth.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil. Pour a small ladleful of the batter into the skillet, swirling to evenly coat the bottom.
- Cook the crepe for about 1-2 minutes on each side, until lightly golden. Repeat with the remaining batter, stacking the crepes on a plate as you go.
- Roll up each crepe and slice into thin strips to form "scrippelle."
- In a large pot, bring the broth to a simmer. Add the scrippelle and let them cook for about 5 minutes until tender.
- Serve the scrippelle 'mbusse hot in bowls, garnished with chopped parsley.
