About Zurek

Żurek is a traditional Polish soup known for its distinctive sour flavor, created from fermented rye flour. Typically served warm, it features ingredients such as boiled eggs, white sausage (kiełbasa), potatoes, and sometimes bacon or mushrooms, depending on regional variations. The soup is often enriched with aromatic spices like marjoram and garlic. Żurek is high in protein due to the sausage and eggs, while the rye fermentation offers beneficial probiotics that promote gut health. The inclusion of vegetables like potatoes adds vitamins and minerals, though the dish can be calorie-dense depending on portion size and the addition of fatty meats. Żurek is often enjoyed as a hearty, comforting meal, especially during colder months or festive occasions.
