Polish Sausage (Kielbasa) Soup

"You can use from 1-3 pounds of sausage depending on your tastes. I love dipping buttered rye bread in the soup - must be my Polish genes."

  1. This was a great recipe. I used leftover kielbasa from Easter dinner. Next time if I use leftover kielbasa, I would wait to add until last, so it won't be overcooked. Also, we love carrots, so I'd add more of them. Will definitely be making this again.
     
  2. Outstanding soup! I make a fair amount of soups and will admit many of them are above average. I will also admit none of them are better than this. I used a cup or two more of beef broth but other than that followed the recipe. Can't wait to make it again.
     
  3. This was amazing! My Husband, who is Polish, gave his compliments to the chef! He said it reminded him of a soup he used to eat when he was little. Anyway, I followed the directions to a T and the soup came out great! Thanks!
     
  4. My family is Polish also and this soup caught my eye immediately. Made exactly as written and enjoyed every bite! I used Eckrich smoked sausage, a bag of cole slaw mix so I didnt have to shred cabbage, matchstick sliced carrots and yukon gold potatoes. Couldnt find any fresh dill at the grocery store so I omitted it but would have been a nice topping. Definitely had the rye bread (no caraway seeds though) and butter ready to dip in my soup. A new favorite to add to my soup recipes! Made and reviewed for the Alphabet tag game.
     
  5. This was delicious. The next day I added a large can of diced tomatoes. It was wonderful. Good comfort food at it best.
