Stir the grated cheese into the eggs, and as the broth is boiling, briskly stir the egg mixture into it; the egg will cook in long filaments. Serve immediately. Serves four. x Note: stracciatella, like a great many other recipes, invites improvisation. You may want to shred a few tender lettuce leaves, and stir them in immediately after the egg has set. x source: Kyle Phillips WebWeaver, The Mining Company's Italian Cuisine http://italianfood.miningco.com x -End Recipe Export- -Begin Recipe Export- QBook version 1.00.14 x Title: vegetarian chopped " liver " Keywords: appetizers, vegetarian x 3 tbsp oil 1/2 lb mushrooms, chopped 1 sm onion, chopped 1 c walnuts, chopped pepper and salt to taste 1 tbsp water x Saute mushrooms and onion for 8 minutes.
