\u00c8 primavera, e le galline si sono rimesse a deporre le uova. Abitando in un piccolo paese, molte famiglie intorno a noi hanno il pollaio e cos\u00ec, in questo periodo dell\u2019anno, capita spesso che qualcuno ci regali delle uova fresche. Pertanto mi \u00e8 tornato in mente una cosa che mi raccontava mia madre: da bambina sua mamma preparava un liquore a base di uova, che veniva usato come cura ricostituente di primavera per i bambini ed i convalescenti. Mia mamma si ricorda ancora la preparazione, ma non le dosi, per cui ho fatto un po\u2019 di ricerca sull\u2019Internet e sono riuscita a trovare la ricetta. Eccola qui:<\/strong><\/p>\n

It\u2019s spring, and the chickens have begun to lay eggs again. Living in a little village, lots of families around us have chicken pens, so it often happens that during this period someone makes us a present of fresh eggs. This brings to mind something that my mother used to tell me: when she was a child her mother used to prepare an egg based liqueur that was used as a strengthening tonic in the spring for children and convalescents . My mother still remembers how it\u2019s made, but not the quantities, so I did a bit of research on the internet and I managed to find the recipe. Here it is:<\/p>\n

\n\n\n\n\n
Ingredienti<\/strong><\/td>\nIngredients<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
6 uova fresche biologiche e intere
succo di 10-12 limoni
1\/2 litro di Vin Santo o Marsala
500 grammi di zucchero<\/strong> <\/td>\n		6 organic fresh eggs, whole <\/p>\n

juice of 10-12 lemons
1\/2 litre of Vin Santo or Marsala
500 grams of sugar<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table><\/div>\n

N.B. Vin Santo<\/strong> and Marsala<\/strong> are both dessert wines, Vin Santo (lit. Holy Wine) is from Tuscany, while Marsala is from the town of the same name in Sicily. You can use sweet Sherry as a substitute.<\/p>\n

Preparazione <\/strong>(Method):<\/p>\n

Carefully wash and dry the eggs, then put them, whole, in a large glass container in a single layer. Pour the lemon juice over the eggs so that they are completely covered. Cover the container and leave it to rest in a dark cool place. After about 10 days the egg shells will have dissolved. If a thin layer of mould has formed on the top, don\u2019t worry, simply skim it off, it\u2019s not poisonous! Pour the egg and lemon mixture in a mixing bowl and whisk it well, then strain it, first through a course mesh strainer, and then a a finer one, being careful not to waste too much of any remaining egg shell (this is an important source of calcium). Add the Vin Santo or Marsala together with the sugar and mix well until the sugar has dissolved, and then bottle the mixture. <\/p>\n

Drink a small glass of your Cura Ricostituente di Primavera<\/strong> before main meals, or as you like it. <\/p>\n

Auguri!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
