An easy, quick and absolutely delicious soup is made from the sister sausage.
Roni Lehti
This is the chef Risto Mikkolan In the sister sausage soup, in addition to the sausage, root vegetables also play a big role.
Usually, most of the roots in soups are potatoes, but Mikkola recommends turning the arrangement the other way around: lots of carrots, fennel, celery and parsnips, less potatoes. This way you get more flavor in the soup than before.
– Roots give the broth a much richer taste.
In terms of ripening, it is important at what stage you put the root vegetables in the soup. Lettuce requires the longest time, followed by celery, carrot and potato.
But one is always first in the pot.
– Onion. It gives a great flavor to the broth. Add the raw onion blocks to the boiling broth.
When the soup is ready, Mikkola finishes it off with a generous handful of chopped herbs.
Contrary to what you might think, the name of the sister sausage does not come from the chef’s sausage-obsessed sister.
The name comes from the Swedish word siskonkorv, which comes from the Old German word sausischen, which in turn comes from the French word saucisse.
French saucisse is the general name for food sausage. So that’s where our name sister sausage comes from.
