Bring the broth to a boil over high heat, then add the stelline pasta. Reduce the heat to medium-high, and cook the pasta over a rolling boil until most of the broth is absorbed by the pastina and the pastina is soft. If needed, add more broth to get the just-right texture.
Remove the pastina from the heat, then add a beaten egg and whisk while adding so it incorporates without scrambling.
Add the butter, cheese, salt, and pepper, and mix until you have a creamy, porridge-like consistency.
Add additional shredded parmesan on top (optional) or chopped parsley (optional). Enjoy immediately.
