Porcini

Ukrainian Mushroom Broth

Ukrainian Mushroom Broth is a deeply earthy, umami-rich soup traditionally made with dried forest mushrooms like porcini or boletus. Often served as a starter at Christmas Eve dinners (Sviat Vechir), this meatless broth is both hearty and aromatic. It celebrates simplicity — dried mushrooms, root vegetables, and fresh herbs — simmered into a clear, golden-brown elixir that’s comforting and soulful.
