This is one of the classic dishes of the Italian winter. The pastina in brodo vegetale is not only nutritious, but is suitable for small children or for a light dinner that warms you during the cold winters.
The homemade vegetable broth is very easy to prepare and, if made with flavorful vegetables, has a truly unique taste. Also suitable for risotto, it can be prepared in quantity and then be frozen. The suggestion is to fill the molds for ice and, once frozen, transfer the cubes in plastic bags for food. In this way, the ice will not ruin the flavor of the broth.
