Treat your ingredients with care...

  • Lamb or beef — For the best flavor and tenderness, choose quality cuts of meat with some marbling. Trim off excess fat before cooking for a leaner soup.

Tips & Tricks

  • For a richer flavor, you can brown the meat before simmering it in the water.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables like leeks or celery for additional flavor and texture.
  • Serve the Sodd soup with a dollop of sour cream or a sprinkle of grated cheese for added creaminess.

Serving advice

Serve the Norwegian Sodd soup piping hot in individual bowls. Accompany it with freshly baked flatbread or crusty bread for a complete and satisfying meal.

Presentation advice

Garnish each bowl of Sodd soup with a sprig of fresh parsley to add a pop of color. Serve it in rustic ceramic bowls or traditional Norwegian wooden bowls for an authentic touch.
