Preparation
- Step 1
Bring a small pot of water to a boil. Lower the eggs into the water, and reduce the heat to keep the water at a gentle boil for 10 minutes. Drain the water, and put the eggs back in the pot, shaking them against the sides to crack the shells. Add enough cool water and ice to cover the eggs, and cool them completely.
- Step 2
Bring the chicken stock to a boil in a saucepan, and add the pasta and, if needed, the salt. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally so the pasta doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan.
- Step 3
Cut the spinach coarsely, and add it to the saucepan. Bring the mixture back to a boil, reduce the heat to low and boil gently for 2 minutes. Stir in the pepper.
- Step 4
Shell the eggs, and cut them into ¼-inch pieces. Divide them among six soup bowls, and ladle the hot soup on top. Serve immediately.
