I am not sure which was the original source, but here are several of the sites PLUS a few from the Netherlands which do not vary much from the recipe recounted below. I have added a few of my own enhancements at this site (such as the slivered onion and option for tilapia) which I think improve the basic recipe. I inferred some of the improvements by using Google translate and the Dutch recipe sites.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/around-the-world-in-eighty-dishes.blogspot.com\/2012\/06\/mosterdsoep-traditional-dutch-mustard.html\">Around the World in 80 Dishes<\/a> :: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ah.nl\/allerhande\/recept\/R-R141140\/mosterdsoep\">AllerHande<\/a> :: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.smulweb.nl\/recepten\/637353\/Mosterdsoep\">Smulweb<\/a> :: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.okokorecepten.nl\/recept\/soep\/mosterdsoep\/\">Okoko Recepten<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Eet Smakelijk!<\/p>\n<p>Mustard Soup &#8211; &#8220;Mosterdsoep&#8221; &#8211; sounds pretty ludicrous.
