It has evolved over time, with each housewife adding her personal touch through ingredients and spices, but the essence remains the same: a rich soup, full of flavor and health. Today, I will share my favorite recipe, adapted to my family's tastes. Preparing veal soup 1. Washing and preparing the meat Start by washing the veal goulash well under a stream of cold water. It is important to remove any impurities to achieve a clean and fresh taste. After washing the meat, cut it into cubes of about 3-4 cm. 2. Boiling the meat In a large pot, add the meat to 3-4 liters of water and bring it to a boil over medium heat. Once the water starts to boil, reduce the heat and let it simmer gently. It is important to add hot water along the way, as veal takes relatively long to boil and the water will decrease. 3. Adding the vegetables When the meat is almost cooked (about 1-1.5 hours), add the diced parsnip, potato, and onion. These vegetables will add sweetness and flavor to the soup, making it even more comforting. Let it simmer for 5-10 minutes. 4. Adding the Mexican mix After the vegetables have started to soften, add the Mexican mix (carrots, peas, corn). This will bring a note of freshness and a splash of color to the soup. Let it boil for a few minutes. 5. Adding the tomatoes and borscht Next, add the tomato paste and borscht. These ingredients are essential to give the soup a pleasant acidity and fresh taste. Let it boil for a few moments and don’t forget to taste to adjust the salt to your liking. 6. Preparing the homemade noodles Homemade noodles are a true culinary treasure. If you haven’t prepared the noodles the night before, now is the time to do it. Mix the 2 eggs with a pinch of salt and gradually add flour until you get a smooth dough. Roll out the dough and cut it into thin strips. Let them dry a little before adding them to the soup. 7. Finishing the soup Add the noodles to the soup and let them boil for 5-7 minutes until they soften. Finally, add the chopped parsley for an extra flavor and fresh appearance. 8. Serving Veal soup is served hot, accompanied by a spoonful of sour cream for a creamy and rich taste. You can also add a few slices of hot pepper for a touch of spice if you wish. Useful tips - Homemade noodles: If you have little time, you can buy noodles from the store, but nothing compares to fresh ones. Making them is simple and worth the effort! - Veal soup can be frozen: If you have leftovers, don’t hesitate to freeze it. You can enjoy it later on a busy day. - Vegetarian version: If you want to adapt the recipe, you can use various vegetables and vegetable broth instead of veal. Nutritional benefits Veal soup is not only delicious but also healthy. It contains quality proteins from meat, vitamins, and minerals from vegetables, making it a good source of essential nutrients. Additionally, it is low in calories compared to other heavier dishes, having approximately 150-200 calories per serving, depending on the ingredients used. Frequently asked questions 1. Can I use other types of meat? Yes, you can replace the veal with chicken or pork, but the boiling time may vary. 2. How can I enhance the flavor of the soup? Adding herbs such as thyme or lovage during boiling can provide an even richer flavor. 3. Is veal soup suitable for children? Absolutely! It is a healthy dish full of nutrients, ideal for the whole family. 4. What can I accompany the soup with? Fresh bread or croutons will perfectly complement the soup. Also, a glass of white wine or fresh lemonade could be the ideal accompaniment. Veal soup with homemade noodles is not just a meal, but an experience that brings people together. Whether you enjoy it with loved ones or treat yourself, each spoonful will bring you a sense of well-being and comfort. So let’s get cooking and enjoy every moment spent in the kitchen!
