Aha! Spurred on by the fact that Chef Mario used Chicken broth in his acquacotta, I determined to find a recipe for this water soup which, you know, used WATER!. My search paid off.
I will make this later this weeken to see how it tastes:
- 1 oz dried porcini mushrooms
- 2 med carrots cleaned and chopped
- 2 lrg celery stalk chopped
- 1 med red onion cleaned
- 1 x clove garlic peeled
- 1 1/2 lb fresh tomatoes or canned
- 1 tbl tomato paste
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 pch red pepper flakes
- 2 qt cold water
- 1/2 cup egg beaters 99% egg substitute
- 8 tbl parmesan cheese freshly grated
- 2 cup croutons
