When cold and flu season are upon us, this recipe always brings comfort when you are feeling a bit under the weather, or just want something that warms your tummy, but is not too heavy. Traditional stracciatella does not have the chicken or rice in it, but it adds a bit a substance when you want something light, but filling.
