Suppengrün - Soup Greens
Every cuisine has a mix of vegetables it uses to create delicately flavored soups and stocks. In Germany, the traditional vegetables are carrots, leeks and onions. They call this combination "Suppengrün" or soup greens. German root vegetables are used more often than more delicate ones because they are cold-climate vegetables.
