Sour Rye Soup – for Vegetarians and for Meat Eaters

Sour rye soup is a must on the Easter table. Today I’ve prepared the soup in a vegetarian variety with tofu. However, if you prefer the traditional recipe, you only have to replace the tofu with white sausage.

Preparation:

Chop the onions finely and gently fry them in clarified butter. Fill a pot with water, add the onions, bay leaves, allspice, and diced potatoes, and bring to a boil. Then add the sour soup starter and cook for about 30 minutes. Mix in diced tofu. You can also add some yogurt or cream. Prepare hard-boiled eggs, halve them and serve with the soup. You can also top it with some horseradish.
