Traditional Żurek with white sausage and egg – notes

Żurek is a soup that I most willingly make and eat in late autumn and winter. I really like it when it’s “rich”. With bacon, white sausage, onion, and eggs. It usually turns out very thick and hearty. This time I made it without onion, hoping that my children had already gotten used to it. Well, unfortunately. They still don’t want to eat anything that contains onion. I’ll have to wait a bit longer. But there was more soup for me and my husband. It certainly won’t go to waste!

How to make Żurek with egg and sausage – tips

First, I fry the diced bacon, and if I have them, I add smoked ribs to it. Then I add diced potatoes and water – I cook until tender. I add the sour rye starter for żurek after the potatoes are cooked, and then I also add the previously cooked white sausage, diced or sliced thinner. I season the soup to taste and add a little marjoram. On the plates, I add a hard-boiled egg to each serving.

There’s so much goodness in żurek that it constitutes a whole dinner for me – after eating a bowl, I’m unable to eat a second course.

Żurek with sausage recipe

Today I have a dinner recipe for the whole family. Because this soup has so much good in it that it constitutes both the first and second course :) A very thick soup with a distinct flavor contains so much goodness that while eating, you constantly fish out delicious morsels with a spoon. A piece of fried bacon, a delicious Polish white sausage, an egg - simply divine :) Such hearty soups are an ideal meal on autumn and winter days - when it's cold, the soup will perfectly warm us up. In addition, thanks to a large number of additions, it will provide us with a lot of energy. I love this soup for its unique taste, and when I make it, it's always a big pot :)

How to make żurek with white sausage?

I have specially prepared a detailed recipe for you, which I described step by step, so that you have no doubts during preparation. Remember that I don't force you to add all the extras - like bacon, for example, but the soup is tastier with it. I, in turn, don't add a lot of onion because my children don't like it. But you can easily use, for example, two onions - fry them until golden brown and add them to the soup - it will be delicious. If you want to impress your family or guests, you can serve żurek in bread :) Just hollow out small loaves of bread and pour the soup into them. That's how you serve it and collect applause :) I use the żurek recipe often and highly recommend it to you. And if you have a meat-eater at home, I am convinced that such żurek with sausage and bacon will surely appeal to him :) Be sure to check it out!

Żurek with sausage for Easter

This żurek will also be perfect for Easter - here everyone is divided into lovers of żurek and white borscht. I don't see any relatively strong difference between these soups and I recommend żurek with white sausage and egg for the holidays :)

And I encourage all soup lovers to try my other soup recipes for the whole family.
