Christmas Soup
Ingredients
- 1kg of organic sauerkraut
- 2l of water
- handful of lentils (for good luck)
- handful of dried forest mushrooms
- 3 frozen porcini (optional)
- 6 dried plums
- 3 bay leaves
- 1tsp of vegetable salt
Preparation
After this we made a roux from 1tsp of olive oil and 2Tbs of flour
We added a cup of water to it, stirred well and thickened the soup with it
Then we mixed together 2Tbs of flour with 1l of full fat milk
After we whisked this mixture really well we slowly added it to the soup while stirring it
This is important! We added 1/2l of single cream to it and stirred for about 10 minutes
We cooked it on a low heat while regularly stirring for about 1 hour
It depends on the quality of the sauerkraut whether you need to season the soup or not
