Italian Penicillin: Pastina Soup

🌟 Tips for the Perfect Pastina

• Use good-quality broth — it’s the base of the soup, so flavor matters.
• If you prefer vegetarian, swap chicken broth for vegetable broth.
• Add tiny bits of cooked chicken or vegetables for extra heartiness.
• The soup thickens as it sits, so add a splash of broth or water when reheating.

🏡 A Bowl Full of Memories

For many Italians (and Italian-Americans), Pastina Soup is nostalgia at its finest. It’s the taste of home, the scent of comfort, and the reminder that food made with love truly can heal.

So next time you’re feeling tired, run-down, or simply need a warm, soothing meal, skip the medicine cabinet and reach for your stockpot instead. A bowl of Italian Penicillin might just be the cure you need — for your body and your soul.
