Here's a recipe for 'Solianka' soup with dill pickle, pickle juice and a bunch of hearty stuff. They might make it differently in Tartarstan though (home of Tartar sauce, I presume): http://soup.allrecipes.com/AZ/SoliankaRussianBeefSoup.asp From other recipes for Solyanka (or however it's spelt/spelled) the common factors are beef broth, pickles, olives, capers, onions, garlic and some kind of meat-- other winter veggies are fair game. And a dollop of sour cream. Best regards, Spehro Pefhany -- "it's the network..."

She had chopped the vegetables so finely that I didn't notice the pickles until she showed me the jar she took them from (I couldn't understand her description of "spiced cucumbers" :-). I don't know how she made it, since I had put her son, my step-grandson, to work with me raking a ton or so of oak leaves from my six 100+-foot trees. Even a lovely season like autumn has its price.

You mean Labskaus? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Labskaus Here in Bremen/Germany we usually leave away the fish and use just Corned Beef (the brazilian Corned Beef is just fine). And sometimes, you find diced pickles in it. Tastes even better, then. regards Henning -- henning paul home: http://www.geocities.com/hennichodernich PM: henningpaul(a)gmx.de , ICQ: 111044613 |
