How to Make Acquacotta
Instructions
- In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and sauté until they become soft and translucent.
- Pour in the diced tomatoes and their juices, and simmer for about 10 minutes until the mixture thickens.
- Add the vegetable broth to the pot and season with salt and black pepper. Bring the soup to a gentle boil.
- Carefully crack each egg into the simmering broth, one at a time. Allow them to poach until the whites are set, but the yolks remain runny, about 4-5 minutes.
- Place a slice of stale bread at the bottom of each serving bowl.
- Carefully ladle the soup over the bread, making sure to distribute the eggs evenly.
- Sprinkle Pecorino Romano cheese on top of each bowl, and garnish with fresh basil leaves.
- Serve your Acquacotta hot and enjoy the rich, comforting flavors of this traditional Tuscan dish.
