East European Milk Soup Recipe?!


Question: East European Milk Soup Recipe?
When I was a child my mother made a soup of warmed milk, and dropped egg whites mixed with sugar into it like dumplings. It was sweet & very simple. Can anyone help? It was so delicious!

"Nothing" Soup (Zupa Nic)

Ingridients:

4 eggs, separated
1/3 cup sugar
1 quart milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
Dash of cinnamon or nutmeg (optional)

Directions:

Beat egg yolks with 3 tablespoons of the sugar until very fluffy.
With clean beaters, beat the egg whites until frothy.
Gradually beat in the remaining sugar.
Continue beating until stiff, not dry, peaks form.
Heat milk over medium heat in a deep 10 inch skillet or 5 or 6 quart dutch oven just until a skin forms on top, about 3 minutes.
Drop beaten egg whites by rounded spoonfuls into hot milk.
Cook until the egg white kisses are set and firm to the touch, about 5 minutes.
Remove kisses with a slotted spoon to waxed or absorbent paper.
Stirring constantly, gradually add hot milk to egg yolks.
Strain into a heavy saucepan.
Add vanilla extract and salt.
Cook and stir over medium low heat about 3 minutes, until thickened, and soup coats a spoon.
Serve soup with 2 or 3 meringues in each portion.
Sprinkle with cinnamon, if desired.
Serve hot or cold.

Or try this recipe from my country. It's very similar if not the same.

?nenokle (Floating Islands)

1 l milk
8 Tbsp + 1 tsp sugar
1 bag vanilla sugar
7 eggs
a pinch of salt
2 Tbsp flour


Reserve 200 ml milk for later. Beat egg whites with 1 Tbsp sugar and a pinch of salt. Boil milk and then take full tablespoons of beaten egg whites and cook in milk on low heat for about 10-20 seconds on both sides. Place cooked islands in a large bowl.

Beat egg yolks with 7 tablespoons of sugar and flour and remaining 200 ml milk. Slowly pour into the warm milk and continue to cook, stirring continuously, until it thickens. Pour over islands. Serve chilled.
