For a vegetarian version, omit the ham hock and bacon and use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth. Consider adding a smoked paprika to mimic the smoky flavor. Adjust the amount of water to achieve your desired soup consistency. Some prefer a thicker soup, while others like it more brothy. Snert is traditionally served with rye bread and mustard.
