Instructions:

In a baking bowl, beat three eggs well, and after adding a little salt, stir in enough of the fine flour to make a firm dough.

Take the dough on the baking board, knead it as firmly as possible, and then weigh it or, if necessary, grate it on a grater.

The barley obtained in this way is allowed to dry, and is then sauted, with some stirring, in hearty boiling beef broth.

After it has boiled gently for five minutes, the soup is served and sprinkled with freshly grated nutmeg and chives.

The dough required for this is easier to make if you heap the flour on a baking board, make a pit in the middle, break the eggs into it, and chop everything together with a large kitchen knife (or cleaver).

It is then, as above, taken together with the hands, worked into a very firm dough, and this rubbed on the grater.

Our tip: Fresh chives are much more aromatic than dried!
