Bärlauch suppe – Wood Garlic soup, and little information about this delicacy.
It’s springtime in Austria, and one sure sign of it is liverwort starting to bloom, and tender wood garlic leaves pushing through forest soil.

There are so many Cream of Asparagus Soup recipes but I have always stayed with the good old one,but today I desired to try something new!

Finnish Spinach Soup and Feta Börek – Pinaattikeitto
Spinach soup is one of my favorite soups. It is served in Finnish schools as lunch, usually with meat-filled pies and hard-boiled eggs. I have lots of vegetarian friends, and they ask me for recipes.
