The meat, simmered for an extended period, imparts its rich flavour to the broth, creating an exceptionally aromatic dish. In autumn, when the weather is often unfavourable, such dishes are ideal. Rib soup is a hearty and nutritious meal that can be enhanced with seasonal vegetables for an even better taste.

Recipe for rib soup

Rib soup is a genuine classic, perfect for the autumn season. It's hearty, delicious, and brimming with aromas that provide energy on cold days. This dish will undoubtedly become a favourite among your household, regardless of the occasion.

Ingredients:                                              

  • About 500 grams of pork ribs,
  • 4 medium potatoes,
  • 2 carrots,
  • 1 parsley root,
  • 1/4 of a celery root,
  • 1 onion,
  • 2 garlic cloves,
  • 2 bay leaves,
  • 4-5 allspice berries,
  • Salt and pepper to taste,
  • A bunch of parsley for garnish,
  • 1 tablespoon of oil (for sautéing)

Autumn is a time when we crave warming and nutritious dishes, and rib soup fits the bill perfectly. The meat from the ribs imparts a unique taste and aroma, while the addition of vegetables makes the dish healthy and full of nutritional value. Preparing this soup allows you to have full control over the ingredients, enabling you to tailor its flavour to your preferences.

Preparation:                      

  1. Cut the ribs into smaller pieces, then sauté them in a tablespoon of oil until they turn a golden colour.
  2. In a large pot, boil about 1.5 litres of water, add the sautéed ribs, then add bay leaves, allspice berries, and chopped onion.
  3. Simmer the mixture on low heat for about 40 minutes so that the broth gains depth of flavour.
  4. Meanwhile, peel the carrots, parsley, celery, and potatoes, cut them into pieces, and after 40 minutes, add the vegetables to the pot.
  5. Cook for another 20 minutes until the vegetables are soft.
  6. Finally, season the soup with salt and pepper, and before serving, garnish with chopped parsley.

Additional Tips:      

  • You can enrich the soup with other vegetables, such as leeks or cabbage, for added texture and flavour.
  • If you prefer a more intense taste, consider adding a teaspoon of smoked paprika or a few peppercorns for a hint of spiciness.
