Polish Easter Soup

sourdough starter

🥗Healthier: rye flour + water

💰Cheaper: store-bought sourdough

Rye flour + water can create a similar sour flavor.

smoked sausage

🥗Healthier: turkey sausage

💰Cheaper: pork sausage

Turkey sausage reduces fat while maintaining flavor.

heavy cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess.

fresh dill

🥗Healthier: dried dill

💰Cheaper: parsley

Dried dill is more shelf-stable, while parsley is a common substitute.

Put 6 cups of water in a pot and add 1 pound of kielbasa.

Cook the kielbasa for a while to let the flavor come out into the water.

Add chopped onion to the pot.

Add 1.5 pounds of diced potatoes to the pot.

Cook for about 20 minutes until potatoes are tender.

Remove the kielbasa and slice it into spoon-sized pieces.

Return the sliced kielbasa to the pot with the potatoes and onions.

Mix 3 tablespoons of flour with sour cream in a bowl to create a thickening agent.

Add the sour cream and flour mixture to the pot and stir to thicken the soup.

Serve the soup in bowls and add two halves of hard-boiled eggs to each bowl.
