60 minutes
Pancake noodle soup (Minestra di frittata) is a delicate and aromatic dish of Italian cuisine that combines the rich flavor of homemade broth with the exquisite texture of pancake noodles. This traditional recipe has roots in rural Italian cooking where housewives used simple ingredients to create nourishing and comforting meals. Thin pancakes rolled into tubes and cut absorb the hot broth, becoming soft while retaining their shape. The flavor of the dish is harmonious: creamy notes of milk and eggs are complemented by the freshness of herbs and the spiciness of black pepper. The soup is perfect for cozy family lunches and holidays, providing warmth and richness in every spoonful. Served hot and garnished with green onions, it becomes a true culinary revelation for lovers of simple yet refined tastes.
