The Soupe de chalet is one of the great culinary specialties of the Fribourg region. Contrary to popular belief, it is not made from leftovers. The vegetables are usually carefully selected from the local market, while the milk, cream, and cheese come from the village dairy. The recipe varies from family to family—there isn’t just one version of chalet soup, but many. This delicious dish is perfect for a cozy dinner on a chilly winter evening, yet it can be enjoyed in any season.
A little tip for enjoying it: cut some cheese into the bowls and pour the soup over it. You can also cook a piece of bacon in the soup for a variation.
