This takes some time, but is well worth the effort. I use a food processor. It is a hearty soup, great on a cold winter night. Serve hot, topped with soured cream.

Chilled Beetroot Soup

Recipe by: Rosemary

Jarred beetroot are great for this recipe, making it ready in minutes. You can save the juice, freeze it and add it in place of the chilled water or ice. Try serving with a dollop of soured cream.

My mother was one of the best cooks I ever knew. When she made stews we mostly found dumplings in them. Add any fresh herbs you like to the dry ingredients.

This lentil soup recipe is based on a traditional Hungarian recipe which uses paprika for flavour. We eat it on New Years day to symbolise good financial fortune for the coming year.

Hungarian mushroom soup

Recipe by: HAMM

Reviews(2)

My family loves soup and this is one of their favourites. It has lots of flavour and is fairly quick to make. It's primarily a mushroom soup but derives a lot of its flavour from other ingredients.

Julia's pickle soup

Recipe by: yoolka

Be the first to review it!

I know what you think - can't possibly be edible. Believe me - it is beautiful. This is a Polish dish, a soup made of sour cucumbers, or pickles. You can buy a jar of them thinly sliced in Polish shops but if there is none in your area you can just slice pickles. I usually just make the soup from the vegetables and that's it but you can throw a chicken stock cube in as well to make it more tasty if you want.

Russian Cabbage Borscht

Recipe by: Puma

Reviews(1)

An elderly lady residing in Turkey served this to a friend of ours while he was in that country several years ago. She has since passed away, but her recipe lives on. It is the best Borscht recipe I've ever enjoyed. Serve topped with soured cream, extra dill and chopped fresh tomatoes.
