Green bean soup
Description
A hearty first course. Green beans are very healthy: they are rich in vitamin C, as well as fiber that aids digestion. They are usually prepared as a side dish or sometimes used in salads. In Slovakia, every housewife prepares green bean soup. Please note that you will need 1.5 liters of water (if you prefer a thinner soup, you may need to add more). For preparing green bean soup, traditional paprika—ground red pepper popular in Hungary and Slovakia—is also used. It adds a delicate aroma and a slightly spicy flavor. Here is the recipe. Serve the soup hot.
