Cooked Polish Keilbasa "Christmas" Soup Wed. 1/15/2014
Followed what I remember from my father-in-law cooking this every year at Christmas and added a few things from recipes I found online. turned out awesome.
Recipe
Polish Keilbasa (not polish sausage from the grocery store, actual polish Keilbasa from a polish community in Mass. )
1 cube chicken bullion.
Cubed ham (cooked)
hard boiled eggs (sliced)
horseradish (with beets if you can get it)
sauerkraut (Optional)
Put keilbasa in bottom of crockpot, cut up into 3 inch pieces. Put in Bullion cube and enough water to cover plus two or three inches. Set on high. I let this cook all day.
Layer in bowls:
Sauerkraut, ham, egg.
take keilbasa out and cut into small pieces and put into bowl. Add broth (the water the keilbasa was cooked in). add horseradish to taste.
If you can't find horseradish with beets you can smash up a small canned beet and add a little directly to the soup.
I'm so glad I learned to make this.
