This hearty and comforting soup is a perfect example of Finnish home cooking.

The soup is easy to make and even tastes better reheated, so make a big pot at once!

Ingredients (4 servings):
2 - 3 carrots
300 g (10.5 oz) rutabaga
100 g (3.5 oz) celeriac
1 1/2 l (6 cups) water
2 meat or vegetable bouillon cubes
8 allspice berries
6 - 8 potatoes
1/2 leek
500 g (1 lb) siskonmakkarat (fresh pork sausages)
3 sprigs parsley
Salt (to taste)
Instructions:
Prepare the vegetables: Wash, peel, and cube the carrots, rutabaga, and celeriac.
Cook the broth: Bring the water to a boil in a large pot. Add the bouillon cubes, vegetables, and allspice berries. Cover and simmer for about 15 minutes, until the vegetables are tender.
Add the potatoes and leek: Wash, peel, and cube the potatoes. Wash and thinly slice the leek. Add the potatoes and leek to the soup. Continue simmering for about 15 minutes, until the potatoes are tender.
Add the siskonmakkarat: Remove the siskonmakkarat from their casings and squeeze them into small balls directly into the soup. Bring the soup to a boil and simmer for about 5 minutes, until the siskonmakkarat are cooked through and float to the surface.
Season and serve: Finely chop the parsley and add it to the soup. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt as needed. Serve hot with fresh bread.
