How to Make Little Stuffed Hats In Broth

  1. Prepare your chicken broth: In a large saucepan, combine 6 cups of chicken broth (or use the broth from a roasted capon carcass for extra flavor). Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
  2. Season the broth: Add 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
  3. Add the cappelletti: Gently add 250g of cappelletti (about 4 cups) to the boiling broth. Stir to prevent sticking.
  4. Simmer the pasta: Reduce heat to low and simmer for 8-10 minutes, or until the cappelletti are cooked through and al dente. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
  5. Add wine and parsley: Once cooked, swirl in 1/4 cup of dry white wine and 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh parsley. Stir gently.
  6. Season and adjust: Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.
  7. Serve immediately: Ladle the hot soup into warmed bowls. Garnish generously with freshly grated Parmesan cheese (about 1/4 cup per bowl).
  8. Enjoy! This soup is best served immediately.
