My Polish(Easter) Kielbasa Soup, This is the soup we referred to as borscht It wasn’t until I was full grown that I found out it isn’t referred to as borscht by anybody else! LOL This, like all other soups, tastes better reheated When storing this soup, keep broth and potatoes in one container, kielbasa in another, and hardboiled eggs separately from both I couldn’t put number of servings because it depends on your appetite! P S I finally found 2 others, here on Zaar, who also refers to this as borscht! Yeah!, OK, so my family also calls this bosch but I suppose it is borscht But, now I see it is actually just Easter soup according to the immigrants polish cookbook and this website!!! We cook the soup with the sausage and let sit overnight The eggs are hardboilded and decorated We then put the eggs in when we sit down to eat Great traditions, keep them going , This is almost the same way I make it I learned it from my ex-husband polish grandmother The differences are:1)She slow simmers the keilbasa in water for about 1 5 hours, she then removes it, removes the skin & then slices it 2)She adds the diced potatoes to the broth & cooks until fork tender 3)She boils 12-14 eggs in a seperate pan She removes the yolk from two of the eggs & puts the yolks in a small bowl, then she adds some of the broth to the yolks & mixes well Then she adds it back to the broth She slices the whites & adds them to the soup broth She slices remaining eggs & adds that to the soup broth Then she adds the keilbasa to the soup broth She never thickened it with flour, it does get a little texture from boiling the potatoes in the broth though Other than that, this recipe is almost exactly the same The amount of vinegar you add depends on how sour you like it! you can always put the vinegar on the table & let the person add more if desired great recipe either way!
