Ingredients:


1 1/2 Quarts rich chicken broth

1/2 Pound escarole -- cleaned free of the tough stems, and cut into long strips

1/2 Pound ground pork

1 Teaspoon garlic minced

1 Tablespoon minced shallot

1 Tablespoon chopped parsley

1 large egg yolk

1 teaspoon salt and pepper

1 cup cooked pastine -- tossed in oil to prevent sticking

2 large eggs -- beaten
 

Preparation / Directions:


Bring the broth to a boil. Add the escarole, and simmer while you prepare the meatballs. In a small bowl, combine the pork, garlic, shallots, parsley, and the egg yolk. Season with salt and pepper. Form into 3/4-inch meat balls. Drop the meat balls into the broth and simmer until they are cooked, about 5-8 minutes. Drop in the pastine, and taste to adjust the seasonings. Turn off the heat. Begin to stir the soup in a clockwise motion and slowly drizzle in the beaten eggs, so it will form strands. Hope this helps Julie aka pumpkin:))
