Frequently asked questions

Do the rosehips need to be cleaned?
Yes. The original uses washed and cleaned rosehips, and since the soup is strained after boiling, the seed hairs are kept out of the finished soup.
What is served with it?
The soup is served with browned cubes of white bread, which give a crisp texture to the sweet, mild soup.
