	How about a polish soup that was white and made from milk? No meat or veggies of any kind. Anybody know that one? My Grandmother used to make it and haven't had it in years.

	I never liked it.

	Thanks for the recipe. One question what's dg mean. I never heard that term before. Also have you heard of a recipe that has potato noodles, bacon and onions in it and it's kind of like a real thick soup? Another one my grandmother used to make.

	dg means deco gram, deco from greek meaning 10, so going back to (x grade math calss?), 1 kilogram = 100 dg = 1000g or 10dg = 100g oh i love that soup , all milk soups for that matter. A variation to the above recipe, is to add an egg, for a more rich in taste and color lumps of dumplings. also does anyone also like a rice milk soup , made with italian (calrose) rice???

	I tkink You're talking about milk soup called 'lane kluski'. 1 egg flour (not sure how many spoons) water You need to mix egg, flour and water - stir it very well. Add it slowly to boiling milk and keep it boiling for few minutes. Unfortunately I'm not sure about proportions - You need to try few times to get perfekt ' lane kluski '. Smacznego

	WE have a very large family POLISH and GERMAN heritage. In order to strech out the food dollars when we were growing up we had milk soup often,in fact i would swear we had a recipe for any kind of soup! Here is how we make it even today. 1 gallon whole milk 1 gallon water salt to taste approx 1/2 cup to 3/4 cup uncooked white rice any size uncoked noodles 12 to 16 oz bag good heavy soup pot and top heavy woodwn spoon stove heat is on high mix and boil both water and milk until thick and creamy stirring constantly making certain bottom of the pot doesn't burn, start off with the top on the pot.later when the milk is boiling you can take the top off of the pot ,There appears a thick layer on the top of the soup and milk also looks thicker, at this time make sure the heat is on high and add the rice, let that cook until 3/4 done then add noodles,then you can reduce the heat to let the rice and noodles continue to cook fully. soup is done and ready to eat! I like to stay very close to the stove area when this is cooking, try not to let the soup boil over onto the stove , this may sound like alot of work but it is not! well worth the minimal effort to cook! Understand when I make this soup today it is made in a very large quanity, will last for several days in the refridge (if not eaten before)! Is great to eat when you are sick or healthy! HAPPY STIRRING!

	WHOA! My grandma makes "milk soup," but I always thought it was just something weird that only her family did! She has 100% Polish blood, but it was her grandparents who were born in Poland and immigrated to the USA. My gram's recipe is almost exactly what krysia describes, but it's got an extra step. She heats up the milk in a big pot, thickens it with flour, and adds a bit of sugar and pepper. Then, she melts butter in a pan and fries slices of bread in the butter until it's lightly toasted. The butter is dumped into the soup, and the toast is pulled into bite-sized pieces and put into the soup.

	My mother used to make it with Bay leaves for flavor.

	I just got done talking to my Mom and that's it. Thanks so much. My Busia has been gone for many years, but just recently we went to Olive Garden to have lunch. On the menu they have this Zupa soup. It's white soup with pototaes and sausages. It reminded me so much of the soup Busis used to make that I had to look into it. All my Mom could remember was the look of the herb and the name of either chav or chev. How exciting this is. Now I just need to find the receipe. Thanks again for first piece of my puzzle.

	Milk soups are an excellent way to use up the preceding day's leftover noodles or any kind of pasta, cooked rice, buckwheat or barley groats. To 2 pint hot milk add 1-3 cups of any of the above, and let your diners either salt or sweeten it to taste. A pat of butter may be added. If there's nothing leftover from the day before, into the boiling milk pour egg-batter in a thin strema to make lane kluski: 1 egg beaten with a heaped tablespoon flour a pinch of salt and just enough liquid (boiling water or milk) to get a nice pourable batter. Cook several minutes and serve as above.

	and what about soup of milk brought to simmer with egg yolks and sugar, and when hot and ready, with eggwhites beaten until stiff boiled on top? called "Nothing soup" but I am told it is also known in the american cuisine...

	Guest: but I am told it is also known in the american cuisine... Well I live in the US and have never heard this on this side of th epond or any other for that matter. The only soup I know of that you drop eggs into is eggdrop soup. Chicken broth brought to a boil and eggs beatten then stirred into. Yum. I think it might be taken from the Chinese cuisine.

	Milk soup? Noting easier :) You need milk, eggs, flour and salt (you can also add sugar at the end if you want) so... boil milk mix 2-3 eggs (I prefer 3), add salt (not so much) and flour (about 3 spoons?) smooth cannot be so thick! and cannot be so watery if it's so thick - add a little bit of milk (or water but milk is better) if it's so watery - add more flour When milk start to boil add the smooth (stirring all time) pull pot off te burner wait a minute until the soup thicken you can add sugar if you want :) that's traditional polish milk soup :) sorry for my mistakes...

	Hello, Mom used to make what we called milk rice soup. We would play in the snow and cold of northern michigan all day and then come in to supper. Hot milk rice soup with spaetzle or drop noodles and a touch of cinnamon. Sweet dreams.

	to guest, the milk soup you described milk, egg yolks, with egg whites added when milk and egg yolks are simmered sounds exactly like the milk soup that my Oma used to make for me when i was a little girl. was delicous. thank you so much. was looking for this recipe for ages. Barbw.

	My mom made a very delicious soup that we just called rice soup. It was white in color and I remember the pepper sprinkled on top. Now that mom is gone, I am wishing I had captured more of her daily recipes. Do you have the receipe your mom used? Ours was not fancy in any way and I don't believe it had an egg in it. Thanks.

cook-a Mar 31, 09, 23:19 #34
	I took care of two kids whose parents came from Poland and the mom used to make a sweetened cereal for breakfast. It was mostly milk, but I don't remember how she made it. Would this have been it?

	For Easter, my Polish grandmother made milk soup. It was milk, heated in a large pot, but somewhat soured with vinegar. A stick of butter/margarine was melted into the soup. I don't know if she added flour, salt, sugar or eggs. After my grandmother passed, my parents just heated up milk and butter. At the table we each add traditional ingredients to the soup: cooked, cooled bacon bits; cooked, cooled polish sausage slices; hard boiled egg slices and my dad added horseradish. Not all Poles seem to have milk soup among their cooking traditions. Does anyone know where it originated? What town/s or region/s?

	jkmillar: Does anyone know where it originated? What town/s or region/s? Interesting history http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milchsuppe Geschichtliche Bedeutung hatte Milchsuppe im Ersten Kappelerkrieg. Dort wurde sie 1529 als Versöhnungsessen zum Friedensschluss des Ersten Kappeler Landfriedens verwendet. Dieses Ereignis ist als Kappeler Milchsuppe bekannt geworden. Dabei steuerten die reformierten Zürcher das Brot und die katholischen Innerschweizer die Milch bei. Zum Gedenken an diesen Tag wurde der Milchsuppenstein bei Ebertswil am Albis auf der Grenze der beiden Kantone Zug und Zürich gesetzt. Milk soup was used in the first Kappeler war. There it was eaten in 1529 as a conciliation meal. The reformed citizen of Zurich gave the bread and the catholic Swiss gave the milk. :) http://www.marions-kochbuch.de/rezept/1357.htm

	jkmillar: For Easter, my Polish grandmother made milk soup. You must have confused “Żurek wielkanocny” with milk soup. Żurek wielkanocny is a sour rye-meal soup and it's traditionally served for Easter, you do add all of the above; bacon bits, sausage slices, hard boiled egg slices and horseradish if you like. There's as many variation of this dish as villages in Poland I suppose. In Kraków region it's also served with mashed potatoes and bacon bits and cooked dried wild mushrooms water and all added to the soup for extra flavor. It looks like this.

	My grandmother was Lithuaian. She would make this soup many ,many, many years ago when I was sick. It took me a while but I finally found her recipe: Grate peeled raw potatoes, drain off liquid. Add enough flour to potato pulp to hold form. Salt to taste. Form into small balls. Drop into boiling water. Boil 10 minutes and remove from water. In other pot scald milk, salt to taste and add a spoonful of butter. Then add potato balls and serve. A couple of weeks ago I was sick and made this recipe - it was just as muy granny made it. She had lots of interesting recipes that she brought over from the old country - Farina Pudding; Kugelis (a potatoe pudding); cottage cheese pancakes, cottage cheese squares, potatoe meat dumplings and a casserole made with noodles, bacon, onion, and cottage (or farmers) cheese.
