| 1. Make the Meatballs: | 2. Place the bread in a bowl and pour the milk over it. Let it soak for 5 minutes. | 3. While the bread soaks, saute the garlic in the olive oil until translucent. | 4. Add the garlic in oil, the ground turkey, the egg yolk, the parsley, and salt and pepper to the bowl. Use a fork to gently mix together--the less you handle the meat, the lighter the meatballs will be. | 5. Divide mixture into 12 equal parts and form into balls. | 6. Bring broth to a simmer and gently drop in the meatballs. Simmer 5-10 minutes, just until cooked through. Remove from the broth with a slotted spoon and set aside; keep warm. | 7. Make the Soup: | 8. Return the broth to a boil and add the orzo. Cook for 10 minutes. | 9. When orzo is almost done, add the spinach and return the meatballs to the soup. Add parsley. | 10. For the Stracciatella: | 11. Break the egg into a small bowl, add the water, and stir briefly. Stir in the grated parmigiano cheese. | 12. Quickly stir the soup, then drizzle in this egg-cheese mixture slowly so that the heat of the soup will quickly form the mixture into cooked strands. | 13. To Serve: | 14. Season soup to taste with salt and pepper. | 15. Ladle into warmed bowls and serve immediately. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
