A classic from the waterside that has it all: Normally, the Hamburg eel soup is cooked quite elaborately from bones and served with rich ingredients such as meat, flour dumplings and sometimes a piece of eel. This version is much lighter.

The parsley root soothes an upset stomach with its essential oils and supports the immune system with its vitamin C content. Beta-carotene from carrots is a precursor of vitamin A and is important for vision and skin.

Despite its name, the Hamburg eel soup is "real" both with and without eel. For although the first recipe handed down contained freshwater fish, there have always been variations without it. However, the sweet baked fruit is indispensable!
