Soupe all'Imperatrice is made from breast of fowl, eggs, salt, pepper, ground rice, nutmeg, clear stock.

The breast is pounded and combined with a teaspoon of ground rice, an egg yolk, salt, pepper and a small amount of nutmeg. After running the mixture through a sieve, quenelles are formed and combined with the stock to make a soup.
