Hearty vegetable soup with carrots and potatoes served in a white bowl, accompanied by a slice of bread on a wooden table.

It is an amazing polish soup , largely unknown in the West United States.

    • Recommendations

    It takes about 35 min to finish. Cucumbers in brine are the key ingredient in here. DO NOT buy American brands. Find Arabic brands like “Mid-east” or “Beit Hashita” or of course if you can get polish then you pimping ‘. You can add more brine from cucumbers to make it a bit more sour. I prefer that. Maggi seasoning is an european version of soy sauce, most of american markets carry it.
