SLOVAK CHRISTMAS EVE MUSHROOM SOUP



Slovak Christmas Eve Mushroom Soup image

This was passed down from generation to generation. I don't have a recipe for this soup, but I will try to esitmate the portions. It is a sour soup but it is delicious. People either love it or not. My neice never liked it and now she loves it, can't wait till Christmas Eve. My grandmother used to use mushrooms my grandfather and dad would pick up in the woods. I believe they called them sheephead. My grandmother would then clean them and hang them to dry. We can't find the mushrooms for sale and are afraid to go and look for them in the woods. We don't know the good from the bad.

SLOVAK CHRISTMAS MUSHROOM SOUP



Slovak Christmas Mushroom Soup image

This is a family tradition to be made on Christmas Eve. If you love sauerkraut, you'll love this soup. Tart and delicious. Simple to make and smells heavenly. It can be very hard to find cans of straight sauerkraut juice, which is probably why it's such a coveted recipe and we only get it once a year. (if we're lucky enough to find the juice) This soup is supposed to bring you good luck for the upcoming new year! Happy cooking! *note: this is a handed down recipe and therefore I don't always have exact measurements, what is listed below is how my aunt and I made the recipe*

SLOVAK CHRISTMAS EVE BOBALKY



Slovak Christmas Eve Bobalky image

This recipe came from my grandmother to my mother and me. I always had a hard time finding the finely ground poppy seed that looks black. The stores here have poppy seed but it is not finely ground and it is grey in color. I even tried to re grind it in the food processor to no avail. I decided to try the Solo brand poppy seed. It worked out wonderful and I didn't have to cook it. I also use the frozen rolls instead of baking the braided bread. It tastes the same
