(Vinegar can be purchased from Ditmers in Los Altos, or ordered online. )", "Once lentils and potatoes are tender add one cut up Polska Kielbasa sausage for taste. One can also mash some of the potatoes a little which adds a little more body to the soup, but do so before adding the sausage. Another tip is to add a few sauteed diced onion until brown and top off soup. We make German crepes with apple sauce with this soup.
