Glossary S
Deutsch: Suppe
Soup is a primarily liquid food, generally served warm or hot (but may be cool or cold), that is made by combining ingredients of meat or vegetables with stock, or water. Hot soups are additionally characterized by boiling solid ingredients in liquids in a pot until the flavors are extracted, forming a broth. Soups are similar to stews, and in some cases there may not be a clear distinction between the two; however, soups generally have more liquid (broth) than stews.
Sour milk refers to one of Mongolia's dairy products. Sour milk is made from raw milk or cooked milk. To make this product, the milk is kept at about sixty-four degrees Fahrenheit in jars and allowed to ferment for about two (2) days. The milk appears to form chucks. When making sour milk from cooked milk, the milk is boiled first and needs to sit a while longer until it gets slightly sour.
