Passatelli in brodo

Passatelli in brodo is a specialty dish of the Emilia-Romagna region in Italy, consisting of a meat broth filled with dumplings made from cheese, bread, and eggs. This hearty soup belongs to the cucina povera (cuisine of the poor), when people used to invent new dishes with what little ingredients they had at the time. It is recommended to pair the soup with a simple red wine such as Sangiovese.
