Peasant soup zatirukha

Very simple, quick to prepare, delicious and satisfying soup! Soup with an interesting name "zatirukha" has its own history. It is believed that this dish originated at the beginning of the 15th century, when peasants cooked various kinds of vegetable stews, and to make them more satisfying and nutritious, they added flour to them. The name of this soup slips into one fairy tale, where it is told that one woman worked in a rich family – baked bread. And I returned home after kneading bread dough with unwashed hands, at home I soaked the remains of the dough from my hands in water to use it to make soup to feed my children. Maybe this is just a fiction, but the bottom line is that the soup "zatirukha" uses flour crumbs, which, indeed, makes the dish more satisfying and nutritious.
