About this dish
Escudella i carn d'olla, or shorter escudella, is a traditional Catalan and Valencian soup made with meat and vegetables. Francesc Eiximenis wrote in the 14th century that it was eaten every day by Catalan people. It is characterized by the use of a pilota, a very big meatball spiced with garlic and parsley; it also contains vegetables as celery, cabbage, carrots, etc. depending on the season. Additionally, bones, sausages called botifarra, and other types of meat, can be used.
