This was great! I had a tube of liverwurst lying around that needed to get eaten up and I couldn't face another boring cold liverwurst sandwich. This recipe was very easy, super fast, and tasted delicious. Even my liverwurst hating DH ate some. Thanks! I will be making this again.

Not that good! I ate the Bohemian Restaurant soup in Omaha for years. Google it.,way better, just a little more work.??

Thank You so much for this recipe. I doubled it and the flavor is just the way I remembered it. I once tried making it with fresh liver and it was not at all good. I will definitely make it again.

So delicious for so little effort. I used the yolk and some chopped green onion, as I had no chives. I also used chicken broth instead of beef, we like it lighter, and threw in a bay leaf and some peppercorns while bringing it up to a simmer, just to add a little more flavor. I made the entire recipe and this was two servings for us.

Words fail me. This Leberklosse Suppe is Wonderful!! I usually buy it from a German Butcher not too far from my house and this is so much better. I actually took a small container to the woman who owns the Butcher shop and she asked for the recipe, she was impressed and my husband who hates liver liked the recipe, too. Whole Foods in my neighborhood sells Turkey Liverwurst and I am going to try making the Klosse with that, too.
