About Držková polievka

This Slovak držková polievka comes from the mother of Varecha contributor moznodobremoznozle. Beef tripe gives the soup its distinctive texture, while paprika contributes a warm red colour.

Onion, garlic, caraway, black pepper and marjoram form the savoury seasoning. Chilli adds heat to the substantial soup, with flour providing a thicker consistency.

Red-onion rings and parsley brighten the surface. Fresh bread accompanies the bowl, alongside the ribbons of tripe and the richly seasoned broth characteristic of this family preparation.
