Pasta in Brodo

Cook's Note


If using fresh filled pasta, just follow the cooking guidelines on the packet, again cooking in the stock instead of water. You’ll find dried filled pasta in large supermarkets or Italian delicatessens.


Variation


Sprinkle with freshly chopped flat-leaf parsley, or fresh herb of your choice, if you have some.
