Zuppa Della Salute
- Sea salt
- About 1 pound very small spinach leaves, well washed
- 2 to 3 large eggs, lightly beaten with a fork
- 4 thick slices day-old bread, drizzled with extra virgin olive oil
- Freshly grated pecorino Romano cheese
- Bring 3 cups water to a boil.
- Add a pinch of salt and the spinach.
- Lower the heat and simmer, uncovered, until the spinach is bright green and tender, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Taste for salt and add more as needed.
- Remember that the pecorino is salty.
- Remove from heat and pour the beaten eggs into the soup in a thin stream, whisking constantly.
- The eggs will form strands.
- Place the bread slices in shallow soup bowls.
- Ladle the soup over the top and sprinkle with pecorino.
- Let rest a moment before serving so the bread can absorb some broth.
