I decided one day to try a recepie from another part of the
world. Due to my limited knowledge of cooking it had to be
easy. I got this recepie off www.scandcook.com after
watching the guy make it on TV. This makes a lot of beet
soup so I recommend you half the quantity for just 2 people.
If you are a vegetarian, you can skip the "goose stock". You
can also add a little Worchestershire sauce for flavor.
Whenever I'm hungry, I raid the fridge and have some. It
tastes good both hot & cold.

Here is the recepie :


Svalbard Beet Soup

2 tablespoons olive oil
2 red onions, chopped
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 pounds beets, peeled and cut into 1-inch dice
2 bay leaves
2 carrots, chopped
5 cups Goose Stock
1 teaspoon chili powder, or more to taste
2 to 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Fine sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup sour cream or yogurt


In a medium pot, heat the oil over medium heat. Sauté the
onions and garlic until soft and light brown, 4 to 5 minutes.
Add the beets, bay leaves, carrots, and stock and bring to a
boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 35 to 40 minutes, until
the beets are soft. Remove the bay leaves. Transfer the soup
to a blender, in batches if necessary, and puree until smooth.

Return the soup to the pot and reheat. Season with the chili
powder, lemon juice, and salt and pepper.

Pour the soup into bowls. Add a tablespoon of sour cream to
each bowl, and serve.

Nono. don't avoid goose stock. Åsa-Tor is a carnivore, and he wants
you to be his friend. How can you invite him into your house if you
can't offer him meat?

Hence the reason you should keep Svalbard Beet Soup (minus the goose
stock) ready in your fridge. It may not be a dead animal, but its the
next best thing.

Doing so automatically makes the dish a non-vegetarian dish. Genuine
Worcester sauce contains, at the very least, anchovies. Anything that
once had eyes is not a vegetable.

Oh, they do, but they totally avoid potato chips and concentrate on jerky
