Nettle

I mentioned that we picnicat we cook soups - whether ear, soups, cereals and canned meat. But in the spring or early summer, this soup is sure of "green stuff". Today I suggest You to try nettle soup with cheese. Why herding? Think of the shepherds, often, but a couple of potatoes and a piece of cheese with him nothing happens, and to eat, especially hot soup, always want...

Burlatsky share – heavy. This work is akin to a spring Affairs in the country - plowing, digging earth, planting.. In both cases you need good nutritious food.

For the shipowner, who accompanied his load of merchant porridge cooked separately. Rump covered in a canvas bag and boiled in a pot of soup. The porridge was rich in meat broth.

Cook was appointed the youngest of the boatman, it was his additional load during night stops, when there was a fair wind and with a tail went sailing by day and by night.

Interested in what's cooking on ships overseas Oriental merchants, probably tried to cook their dishes, for example soup. Only adjusting the recipe to suit your needs.
