A Recipe for
Szerb Bableves (Serbian Bean Soup)
"Public and private food in America has become eatable, here and there extremely good. Only the fried potatoes go unchanged, as deadly as before." |
| Luigi Barzini, 'O America' (1977) |
Tarragon: Only the leaves are used of the tarragon plant which are available either fresh or dried. A favorite in French foods, tarragon’s aromatic, licorice-like flavor makes a great addition to chicken, fish, eggs, butter, vinegars, and soups. |
I envy people who drink -- at least they know what to blame everything on. |

Soak beans in 1 quart cold water the night before you plan to make
soup. Next day, drain beans and put aside.
Put 2 quarts water in a large soup pot and in it cook bones and
vegetables with salt over low heat for 2 hours. Strain and save
liquid.
Put drained beans into the reserved liquid; add enough water to
bring the amount back to 2 quarts. Cook covered over low heat till
beans are done.
Make little dumplings and put aside.
Melt the lard in a frying pan. Wilt onion in it, then mix in the
flour and cook over very low heat till the mixture is light brown.
Remove from heat and mix in mashed garlic and paprika. Whip in 1/2
cup cold water. Add to the almost ready bean soup and cook the soup
over very low heat for at least 10 minutes longer.
Note: this southern Hungarian dish probably appears in Serbian
cookbooks as a Serbian dish, where it is hopefully titled "Hungarian
Bean Soup".
