My russian grandmother used to make a soup pronounced "Cheveyal" or "Shevel". It was made from these green leaves that were sour/bitter. I want to know what these leaves/plant are. I thought it was Sorrel but its not. Any ideas. Its a very popular village soup that russians and ukranians make?
What is the name of a cold russian soup made from bitter or sour leaves?
sorrel is an herb. try wiki's here they do have some list of soup cold or hot from russia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_cui...
Reply:Russian щавель (schavel') is sorrel :-) You can look in a Russian-English dictionary.
