Sorrel Soup "Velvet" Recipe
Spring has already arrived. Soon nettle chicks hatch, and then sorrel with spinach appears. It's time to cook the usual fresh and light green soup. I did not expect that a simple sorrel soup with only three ingredients could turn out to be so chic, soft, velvety, with a slight pleasant sourness. I cooked this soup regularly at the dacha last summer until I ran out of fresh sorrel, and in winter I cooked spinach with the addition of citric acid or juice. Excellent soup! Everything is simple and fast.
