Radish – thank so much for the link to your Schav recipe! I had seen a lot of references to that soup in various hunts for sorrel recipes, but I had no idea what it really was. Now, thanks to your lovely photos, I’ve got a great picture and a good recipe to try.

And yes, it’s ironic sometimes how something goes from being a weed to being gourmet. As my mom says, what goes around, comes around. I’m so glad you were able to find sorrel!

I cannot even begin to tell you just how much I love sorrel. I guess, I love it enough to grow it on my rooftop and make schav with it! In fact, I made it recently – here’s a link…

I think it’s amusing that something that is practically a weed and was historically a peasant food (and in Russia it was one of the cheapest greens) – is now rare, pricey and ‘gourmet’…
