ABRUZZO - Pallotte Cac'e'Ove
There are so many things I could say about this recipe. It brings me way back to family holiday meals when we would visit my grandmother. She and my grandfather were the only people who knew how to make it, and it was only ever for special occasions. My mom never made it at home because she wasn't sure how to flip the crepes, I was always told it had to be done with your fingers (but I used an offset spatula and it worked great...). This soup has an Italian origin, after doing some research, I discovered it's from the Abruzzo region of Italy and its official name is Scrippelle ‘mbusse (Crepes in Broth or literally wet crepes). I've taken my grandmother's simple recipe, most likely handed down from my grandfather's side of the family. My grandmother was 100% polish, but only ever made Italian food- she would make spaghetti from scratch for Thanksgiving instead of turkey (along with this soup!). My grandfather on the other hand was Northern Italian, so that was how they cooked in their home. I've fluffed up store-bought stock by simmering it with onions, garlic, thyme, and lemon juice. I've also reduced the recipe by half. Since my family would fight over this soup, they always made copious amounts of crepes- there's proof recipe can be easily doubled if you're making it for a large crowd.
