Classic okroshka with sausage - 7 recipes for making classics

She is a frequent guest on the tables of representatives of all social strata of the Russian Federation - from handyman to entrepreneur. Swap the “Doctor's sausage” for ham - the cost of the dish will increase by 20-30%. And if you crumble hammon in there, it will become an order of magnitude more expensive, i.e. 10 times!

Its “budget value” also depends on one factor: a student in a dormitory will pour water acidified with vinegar into it, but an accomplished person, after grinding the meat, egg and vegetable part of the dish with mustard, horseradish and sour cream, will generously splash in an expensive variety of kvass or ayran. But everyone will be happy.

It will satisfy you in the very heat of a July afternoon, when no other dish, so to speak, “will fit”; and will remind you of summer warmth in the winter cold.

And it has long been reincarnated, along with the matryoshka doll, the balalaika and the T-34 tank, into a famous Russian brand.

His name is okroshka.

A little about the most delicious, traditional Russian okroshka

The usual okroshka, with its recipe going back centuries, consists of two main components – kvass and grated or finely chopped radish. In the 16th and 17th centuries, they began to add diced boiled turnips or scalded green peas to it. Later turnips were replaced by potatoes.

At the same time, in the houses of the nobility, the recipe included hard-boiled eggs and homemade sausage or ham. In taverns, which were analogues of not only drinking establishments, but also canteens and restaurants, they thought of introducing finely chopped cucumber into its composition. As for the greens, they were constantly added to the okroshka.

Thus, by the 19th century, the main recipes for making this dish of state cuisine had developed.

With all this, the sausage can be replaced with boiled meat - lean pork or beef, or even chicken. As in the recipe adopted in the south of Russia, in the Belgorod and Voronezh regions. There, the drink is diluted in a 1:1 ratio with strong chicken broth, and the chicken meat is cut into cubes.

In all the recipes below, eggs are hard-boiled by default. It is better to test cucumbers, if they are from your own garden, in advance - so that they do not turn out to be bitter and spoil the dish.

By “sausage” they usually mean “Tea”, “Doctor’s”, “Amateur”. It is better to cut the onion and dill and keep them separately and add them to the okroshka just before eating - mashing them with salt beforehand so that they release juice and smell.

The fact is that if you mix onions and dill with all the ingredients in advance, they can cause them to sour even in the refrigerator
