Cozy Up with this Dutch Classic: Groentesoep Met Balletjes, with Ham and Cheese Tigerbread Bun (includes complimentary surprise dessert).

Groentesoep met Balletjes is Dutch for vegetable soup with little balls (the little balls are ground chicken mixed with ground pork). This soup begins with a rich, slow-simmered bone broth—crafted from organic chicken bones and fresh aromatics—bringing you a warming base full of collagen, minerals, and deep umami flavor. Floating in this nourishing broth are the delicate homemade meatballs, seasoned with a hint of nutmeg and curry, and brimming with protein and comforting spice.

A colorful mix of organic vegetables like leek, celery, carrot, and green onions adds texture, flavor, and a powerful dose of vitamins and antioxidants. Vermicelli noodles round out the bowl. Light yet sustaining, this soup is a celebration of clean, homestyle Dutch cooking that supports immunity, gut health, and overall well-being.

On the side, a Dutch Sourdough Tigerbread bun delivers the perfect crunch. Baked with a signature rice flour topping that creates its beautiful tiger-striped crust, this bun is crisp on the outside and soft within—stuffed with warm, melty cheese and ham. When I made these a couple of weeks ago, our son Shane couldn’t stop eating them. They disappeared straight off the tray—proof of just how irresistible they are. Sourdough’s natural fermentation brings added depth of flavor while supporting digestion and blood sugar balance.

High in protein, rich in nutrients, and crafted with organic ingredients wherever possible, this meal is a comforting embrace in edible form—a nourishing taste of the Netherlands, made with love from Ragna’s Table.
