In Northern Indiana where I was brought up there was a little Polish lady that made this soup one time after Easter. I don’t know what the real name is…something I couldn’t say even if I could remember I would guess. Needless to say, it’s been on my mind to find the recipe and see if the recipe lives up to the memory. There are a couple similar recipes posted, but not quite like the one I found written down in chicken scratch. I haven’t tried to make this one yet, but when I do I’m hoping it’s as good as my memory of that one bowl of soup a looong time ago. The recipe I have doesn’t include serving amount so I’m guessing to get this on ‘zaar!
Ingredients: [‘bacon’, ‘hard-boiled eggs’, ‘polish sausage’, ‘ham’, ‘water’, ‘horseradish’]
Quantity of Ingredients: [“1 lb bacon”,”3 dozen large hard-boiled eggs, sliced “,”1 lb Polish sausage, sliced “,”1 lb ham, cubed “,” water, as needed “,” freshly-grated horseradish, for garnish (You can Substitute Tabasco Sauce if your really donu0027t like horseradish)”]
Number of Servings: 6
Steps: [‘Fry the bacon and cut it into 1″ pieces.’, ‘Slice the eggs and sausage.’, ‘Cut up the ham into 1/2″ cubes.’, ‘Put everything into a large pot and cover with hot water.’, ‘Bring to a boil. Simmer until the egg yolks are well dissolved.’, ‘Serve with horseradish to suit your taste.’, “*Note: The chicken scratch says something about rye bread — guessing it’s a good addition to the meal?”]
