Spelt-Vegetable Soup
Healthy, because
Even smarter
Green spelt is spelt harvested unripe. The grain scores with B-vitamins, which strengthen our nerves. The dead trumpets, also known as autumn trumpets, score points with their abundance of secondary plant substances and low calories.
The death trumpet is related to the chanterelle, so you can also replace it with fresh chanterelles. If it is not the mushroom season, you can use dried or frozen products.
