Directions
Slovak Christmas Eve Mushroom Soup, 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 , First generation American born Slovak here Yes, this indeed this is one of the courses served during a traditional Christmas Eve (Vilija) dinner that starts when the youngest kid in the family spots the first star in the evening In Slovak it is called hubova ma?anka ) It is actually a simpler version of kapustnica My grandmother and mother made it when we were kids and growing up I loved it and still make every so often for my family at Christmas to keep the traditions alive Everybody loves it, but one usually has to be raised eating it or like a more sour soup Since Christmas Eve is a day of fast from meat and dairy, you never would never put any meat or sour cream in it The dishes of the Vilija Dinner each have a specific symbolic meaning for those of the Byzantine Catholic/Orthodox faith Sauerkraut juice is sour so I think anyone would get the symbolism of what we experience during our life of faith et al So CHRISTOS RADAJETSJA! SLAVITE JEHO! (Christ is born! Glorify Him!), I want to make a version of the Christmas soup made with, rice, kraut juice, keilbasa, and mushrooms Any body got such a receipt ?
