Ok a bit of a Halloween twist on the name of a traditional hearty Hungarian stew that is bursting with flavour because of the paprika. You can easily transform it into a stew by adding a little more flour and a less stock. Serve it with spaetzle, which are wonderful Eastern European dumpling-like noodles. We love them homemade, but you can also purchase them dried.
The first time I ate this soup was when I was invited to Maria's house many years ago (long before we became Relish business partners). I have tweeked it over the years to create a warm and comforting soup made with a minimum of ingredients. It's sure to become a family favourite.
This soup is going to make you love green peas. It's often something we have in the freezer and it's a great way to use up things we already have. In honour of Earth Day 2024, we've created this bright green spring inspired plant-based soup but you can easily adapt it if you don't a few of the special ingredients in your pantry.
Speciality mushrooms have become the norm in grocery stores and market stands. Ideally use a variety of different types, but if you only have white or brown available, that is fine too.
Cabbage rolls take so much time to construct, so this soup incorporates all the best components of the dish but comes together quickly. Just like cabbage rolls, we like to top each bowl with a dollop of sour cream and serve a slice of toasted rye bread.
