an old finnish recipe, grandmother's sausage soup with rye bread

sausage

💰Cheaper: ground meat

Chicken sausage is lower in fat, while ground meat can be more economical.

vegetable broth

🥗Healthier: homemade broth

💰Cheaper: water + bouillon

Homemade broth is fresher, while bouillon is a cost-effective alternative.

Add 2 tablespoons of yeast and 200 ml of wheat flour; mix together and leave to swell for 15 minutes.

Add 1 egg, 100 ml of wheat flour, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 300 ml of rye flour; mix together into a dough, adding more rye flour if necessary.

Divide the dough into 2 parts and roll out into rounds.

Place on a sheet of baking paper and make a hole in the middle; prick with a fork.

Cover the bread and leave to rise for 30 minutes.

Bake at 250 degrees for 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a pot, add 1 tablespoon of butter and 1 chopped onion; sauté until softened.
