Borsch This is a national Ukrainian dish. But it is widespread not only in Ukraine, but also in other, neighboring countries. And with the same success it is prepared, as in Ukraine.

Only now, each nation has its own attitude to this dish, as well as its own recipe, according to which it is prepared.

To summarize, borscht is a soup to which beets are added. Because of this, it turns out to be a dark red color, saturated in its consistency.

Borsch belongs to the first courses, and is independent.

Borscht began to cook a very, very long time ago. Various ingredients were used for this.

Since ancient times, an ingredient called hogweed has been added to it. Apparently this is where the name came from. Since now that hogweed is not used, but beets are used.

There are so many borscht recipes! You can add both the main ingredients and additional ones, such as an egg, herbs, red pepper, and so on.

  • tomato or tomato paste

You need to start cooking with the broth.

Broth for borscht

I used to cook the broth with beef bones with meat, or with pork. I really like the broth, which is obtained precisely in the presence of a bone.

We put water for the broth, and throw a bone into it. When it boils, it is necessary to drain the water, rinse the bone, and put it on fire again. Then our broth will turn out tasty, transparent, without dirt.

I cook the broth for about an hour, or even an hour and a half, over low heat. if it's a chicken, then everything is faster.

After the broth is ready, I pull out the bone, took the meat from the bone, threw it into the broth, and you can start cooking borscht.

  2. Wash and peel the potatoes, cut into small pieces, squares.
  3. Wash the carrots, peel and grate on a coarse grater.
  4. Peel the onion, cut into cubes.
  5. Peel the beetroot and rub it on a coarse grater.
  6. The amount of vegetables depends on the volume of the pan in which you cook borscht.

First, fry the beets in a pan. Pour not a large number of vegetable oil, and put the beets. Fry lightly, then add the carrots. When it has simmered a bit, add the onion.

When all the vegetables are well cooked, add the tomato or tomato juice here.

Salt and pepper to taste.

Then add potatoes to the pan, and pour out such a dressing.

You can also add bay leaf to the broth.

Borscht "Belarusian"

Prep time: 45 minutesServings: 12

In Belarus borscht is cooked without cabbage, it turns out very tasty. Let's cook borscht chicken broth, the calorie content of such borscht is only 20 kcal per 100g!

Belarusian borscht without cabbage, the recipe of which is presented below, is undoubtedly very different in taste from our traditional borscht.

To prepare Belarusian borscht you will need:

Ingredients:

  • 500 g chicken with bones
  • 4 potatoes
  • 1 carrot
  • 2 onions
  • 1 large beetroot
  • sunflower oil for frying
  • 3 tbsp adjika
  • Bay leaf
  • 1 tbsp vinegar
  • black peppercorns
  • ground black pepper
  • fresh parsley

How to cook borscht without cabbage:

Pour the chicken bones with water and place on the stove, bringing to a boil, reduce the fire, constantly removing the scale. Cook until the meat is ready to pull away from the bones. Take out the chicken and leave the broth on the stove.

Peel potatoes, cut and lower to cook in chicken broth.

First, fry the carrots (grated) in a frying pan, then add the onions and fry for a few more minutes.

Peel the beets and grate on a borage grater.

Put the grated beets to the fried vegetables, reduce the fire and simmer until the beets are soft. Then add adjika (or fresh tomatoes), the vinegar and the pan can be removed from the heat.

Separate the chicken meat from the bones, put in the soup.

Now you need to transfer the entire contents of the pan to the pan, but before that you need to make sure that the potatoes in the soup have had time to cook, because if you add a vegetable mixture containing vinegar to an undercooked potato, it will remain solid, no matter how much it is subsequently cooked. After putting the contents of the pan into the soup, you need to let it gurgle under the lid for another 10-15 minutes.

Then salt, add the necessary spices, herbs. And be sure to then let the finished soup stand under the lid for at least 15 minutes. During this time, its taste will become more saturated. Borsch is traditionally served with sour cream.

We are trying to cook a simple recipe without cabbage with pork and learn how to cook delicious classic borscht, but without cabbage and with tomato paste.

Ingredients

Cooking process with beets and pork

Ingredients:
  • pork ribs 450-600g. (note that the more meat, the steeper and fatter the broth),
  • 4 medium potatoes,
  • 3 not very large beets,
  • 2 carrots
  • onions 2 pcs. (onion),
  • tomato 1 pc.,
  • pepper 1/2 pc. ( sweet bulgarian),
  • garlic 1-2 cloves,
  • tomato puree 40 gr.,
  • spicy roots,
  • dried spices,
  • salt and pepper to taste,
  • greens to taste
  • 1500 ml. broth.

Cooking process

Let's start with the broth:

  • wash the ribs
  • put in a saucepan
  • set to maximum fire.
As soon as it boils - remove the scale "foam", reduce the heat - to the minimum: it did not boil, but slightly seethed, add one carrot, onion and spicy parsley roots, celery.
After 40 minutes, take out the ribs and strain.
While the broth is bubbling, let's take care of the vegetables:
  • cut potatoes into chunks
  • beets and carrots - thin straws,
  • onion cut into small cubes or half rings.
Scald the tomato in boiling water and remove the skin, then cut into cubes, bell pepper straws.
For garlic, do not use a press, it is better to crush the cloves with a knife and chop finely, so it will retain more palatability and smell.

Dressing for borscht without cabbage.

The dressing recipe is simple, we start frying vegetables:
  • put the onions and carrots in the heated (refined) oil and fry for 5-7 minutes,
  • add pepper and sauté for 5 more minutes.
  • add the beets, saute everything together for 9-12 minutes.
Then add chopped tomato and tomato paste, simmer for half an hour. Now we connect all the components:
  • we return the ribs to the strained broth, let it boil and then send the potatoes.
  • 3 minutes after re-boiling, we send beetroot passivation, cook for half an hour, do not let it boil too much, just simmer.
  • remove from heat, sprinkle with chopped herbs and crushed garlic, cover the pan, set aside to infuse for 15 minutes. Serve with sour cream and black bread, grated garlic.
The cooking time of beetroot borscht without cabbage takes from one to one and a half hours.

The process of cooking borscht without cabbage with chicken

If dinner or lunch needs to be cooked even faster, then I use chicken or smoked pork belly for broth. Ingredients:
  • 1 leg or 0.5 kg. brisket,
  • carrot 1 pc.,
  • bulb 1 pc.,
  • medium beets 3 pcs.,
  • 5 tubers of potatoes,
  • couple garlic cloves,
  • 2 tomatoes
  • pepper 1 pc. (sweet Bulgarian),
  • tomato puree 30 gr.,
  • herbs, bay leaf,
  • salt, pepper to taste.
  • 2 liters of water
The principle of preparation is as described above. There are only a few small differences:
  • broth prepared with brisket does not need to be filtered,
  • it is cooked for 15-20 minutes, depending on the slicing of the brisket.
Roots can be omitted as the brisket has a pronounced aftertaste. FROM chicken meat cook for 10 minutes longer, and when the meat is cooked, it must be separated from the bones. In this case, you can add spicy roots, strain the broth. Everything else according to the original recipe. Cooking time for borscht with chicken without cabbage is 30-40 minutes for 4 persons. A few tips on how to cook amazing borscht without cabbage:
  • vinegar or lemon juice can be added to the passivation if there is not enough acidity. If there is sufficient acidity in borscht, the beetroot loses color less and boils. When the acid predominates, balance the flavor with a pinch of granulated sugar.
  • as I said above: beets can not only be sautéed, but also baked, if done in advance, this will help save time when preparing the sauté. Baked in a skin.
  • in addition, you can use any ingredients, depending on the recipe, the preferences of your household and guests. For example: zucchini, sliced, canned corn, pod or canned beans, green peas, turnips and even apples. You can also fry vegetables in lard. With beans, my household is especially fond of.
Don't skimp on using herbs dried and fresh, the latter are best added after the borscht has been removed from the heat. The roots will add flavor to the borscht. I love using ginger and celery. Below you can watch a video on cooking borscht. Cook with pleasure, surprise guests and relatives, we wish you success. Enjoy your meal!

Features of cooking borscht and taste

The density of borscht

Our borscht turns out to be of medium thickness, but if you like a thicker soup in which the spoon gets stuck, then you can put larger vegetables or add Bell pepper and fresh or sauerkraut. Instead of simple white cabbage suitable and Beijing ( leaf salad), then the taste of borscht will be more tender and delicate.

If there is nothing else at home, except for purchased frozen vegetables, then you can thicken our beet soup with them. Ready mixes are suitable for borsch: Paprikash, Lecho and Ukrainian Borsch itself.

I added half a pack of frozen vegetable mix Paprikash

By the way, you can cook soup only with frozen vegetables, throwing them into the finished broth. This option will turn out to be very dietary and suitable for those who have a stomach ache, because the vegetables will be without roasting.

If the matter is not in the stomach, but in the fact that fresh vegetables have run out at home, then it is better to add fried onions and some potatoes to the frozen one. So borscht from a purchased vegetable mixture will be tastier and more aromatic.

How to cook lean borscht

Borscht on the water or, rather, on vegetable broth can also be very tasty. Yes, it will be lighter in taste, but a large amount of fried onions (take 4-5 heads), hot spices (you can take black peppercorns or fresh vegetable pepper chili by adding it to the fry).

At the same time, thick lean borscht will be perceived as more satisfying.

I am writing to you, but I already want to eat!

How to cut vegetables

Vegetables in small cubes are more juicy, and it is more interesting to scoop up this vegetable mosaic with a false one and examine it before eating.

Our vegetable roast of carrots, beets and onions can generally be an independent dish serving as a side dish or salad. When you salt it, try it, it is very tasty.

What kind of fire to cook vegetables

On a fast, intense fire, vegetables are boiled (fried, stewed) faster and retain more useful vitamins and minerals. Therefore, it is better to fry quickly, stirring constantly (so as not to burn), and not to leave for a long time on a small fire.

Similarly, when cooking seasoned borscht, the fire must maintain a very active and rapid boil. We boiled it a little, the potatoes became soft, and the vegetables from the fry shared their juiciness with the broth - turn it off!

Why lemon juice in borscht

The sourness of the lemon juice helps the beetroot retain its color, though it doesn't lose color as much when diced. And lemon adds character to the broth, making it tastier and brighter.

If there is no lemon, you can drop vinegar or tomato puree.

What to serve with borscht

A plate of borscht with freshly chopped garlic will be very tasty. And some like to add a good spoonful of fat sour cream!

The red root crop is a tasty and very affordable product, which is why it is so often used in cooking for cooking. different dishes. One of the popular dishes made on its basis is beetroot soup, which is most often served in the form of mashed potatoes or cream, which makes the treat even more special.

All recipes for preparing such a first one are simple and uncomplicated, but still they have their own characteristics, without which delicious soup you won't.

Beetroot soup without cabbage

Ingredients

  • — 800 ml + -
  • - 1 PC. + -
  • - 1-1.2 tsp + -
  • - 2 tbsp. + -
  • - 50 ml + -
  • - 1 tbsp. + -

Spices for beetroot soup

  • Dry herbs (parsley, dill) - 1 tsp;
  • Coriander seeds - 1 tsp;
  • A mixture of freshly ground peppers (green, pink, black, white) - 1/6 tsp.

Homemade Beetroot Soup

It is recommended to make a spicy beetroot soup with special spices to make the dish unforgettably tasty and fragrant. You can use ginger root, a mixture of peppers, dry herbs and coriander as dizzying spices. After grinding the main ingredients with a blender, we get the most delicate puree soup, which, under the influence of spicy spices, will simply melt in your mouth.

  1. We put a pot of water on the fire.
  2. My beets and potatoes, peel, cut into small cubes. It is desirable that the beets be cut into cubes 1.5-2 times smaller than potatoes. This will help not to waste time on separate cooking of potatoes and beets, but will help you to cook root crops at the same time.
  3. When the water boils, put the chopped vegetables into the pan. We cook them until cooked.
  4. We heat the frying pan in oil, put the coriander seeds crushed in a mortar into it. After about a minute (when the seeds darken a little), add grated ginger to them, sauté it together with coriander for 30 seconds.
  5. At the end of the stewing of spices, turn off the stove, remove the frying pan with fragrant contents from it.
  6. As soon as the vegetables are cooked, pour the fried spices into the pan to them. Cook the soup for another 2-3 minutes.
  7. After - remove the dish from the fire, beat it with a blender.

If you don’t have a blender, you can get a pureed mass in another way: pour the broth into a separate bowl, grind the vegetables with a potato masher, then beat them with a whisk, and then gradually pour in the previously drained broth to them.

  1. We put the pan with almost ready mashed soup on the fire, add a mixture of peppers, salt, dry herbs to it. If you are using ground coriander instead of seeds, then you can add it at this stage. In this case, it is not necessary to overcook it earlier in a pan with ginger.
  2. After boiling the soup (already with spices) - continue to cook it for a few more minutes.
  3. Finally, add cream / sour cream to the dish, mix everything, turn off the fire, before the beetroot soup boils again.

If you want, then not all vegetables can be mashed completely. For piquancy and some similarity with borscht, beets can be left in the soup in the form of small pieces. But this is an amateur and therefore it is not necessary to do this at all. Cook the way you like.
