Pastina is a comfort food soup I grew up on my mom making for me. It’s perfect for cold days like rain or snow, and I was craving it but didn’t feel like using the stove (lol..) so here’s an easy recipe I made as a desperate lazy college student. It’s good!

Steps

1

Put pastina in rice cooker and full with stock to half cup line
2

Add salt and pepper, turn on the cooker
3

Whisk egg with cheese in a separate bowl
4

When the cooker switches to warm, add the whisked egg and cheese
5

Cover and let sit for about 5 min
6

Because of the nature of the rice cooker, you’ll need to add extra broth until the pastina is covered, some thickness is ok though
7

Done! If you want, sprinkle more cheese on top and serve, but it’s not really necessary as it’s delicious on it’s own.
