I don’t understand how masterful it is, but it’s very tasty

By chance poured 2 tablespoons of beets

Hello everyone! I’m not a professional cook, but as for “Ukrainian” borscht, I recognize it as such only if it must contain beans and 2, or even three types of beets (reddish, sweet and fodder). And without these ingredients, the soup has no right to be called “Ukrainian” borscht. And one more thing - frying not in vegetable oil, but in lard, with cracklings.

Real Ukrainian borscht with beets boiled until white. The color of beets in borscht, and especially the coloring of potatoes, is not acceptable. In villages, this is a sign of a bad housewife. The color comes from tomato juice. You have a version of borscht from western Ukraine, which is based on Polish barshchik or a similar beetroot soup.

Beloved borscht. I cooked it with the freshest tomatoes, they were sour, so I didn’t add more acid. I chose pork and beef for the broth. The borscht turned out to be very tasty.

I've prepared it and just have to try it.

Thank you! It turned out to be a very tasty borscht!

Very tasty. I recommend

Naturally not 3 hours. All processes are parallelized while the meat is being cooked. A maximum of a couple of hours from placing a pot of water on the stove until serving

But they forgot the cloves. Stick a few cloves into a small onion, and after making it, throw away the onion.

so for yourself, recipe. Where are the tomatoes instead of tomato paste, where is the crushed garlic with lard? What’s especially alarming is that the cabbage is cooked for 5 minutes, it’s for bunnies or something.

Yes, in fact, he... Only beets (beets), still in small strips, and carrots - not necessarily, they give extra sweetness... Well, and instead of tomato paste, still a preparation for borscht, from tomatoes and lettuce peppers, well and you can grind it with lard at the end..)

Ukrainian borsch

In general, a real gift for both soul and body. Almost everyone is hesitant to take on making Ukrainian borscht because of the cooking time and the huge number of subtleties that need to be taken into account. We hasten to reassure you: our version of Ukrainian borscht is quite simple to make, so even those who are taking their first steps to the culinary elite can handle it.

Good day! In the second half of the recipe it says that you need onions for frying. But it is not listed in the list of goods in part 2. How much is needed?

Roxana, judging by the recipe, 1.7-2 liters of broth will be useful for you, but it all depends on your ideas about the thickness of borscht)

Please tell me, if I already have ready-made broth, how many liters. do I need for the indicated amount of vegetables? I'm afraid I'll make a mistake with the proportions) Thank you

In different regions of Ukraine, borscht varies greatly. This version is similar to the one prepared in Western regions. I’m from Kharkov, and here another version of borscht is widespread, which differs fundamentally in the way beets are made; they are sautéed in fat and added to the bubbling meat broth first, cooked until completely discolored, and only later are other ingredients added. Such borscht turns out not red-violet, but orange-red; potatoes do not turn pink. In addition, broths are most commonly made from pork or mixed, for example pork + homemade chicken. In the Poltava and Chernihiv regions there are options with goose, and from time to time ingredients unusual for non-lenten borscht “slip through”, from beans to zucchini and apples

Zima Sanfilippo, and also on the degree of readiness of the frying, in other words, on your expectations and on the quality of the goods.

Thanks for the recipe. The borscht came out good! One thing that I had to change was that I did the frying for 15 minutes rather than 5. I think it depends on the stove and the concentration of the ingredients.

I will definitely try to cook borscht according to your recipe. Looks really appetizing in the photo. Thank you very much.

Thank you very much for the recipe! The only thing is that I replaced pork lard with goose lard. The borscht came out good! I added the recipe to my book for future reference.

I made some borscht (we love it so much!), took a photo, but I was timid to show it off - it’s a very well-known dish... it seems like good people didn’t shut it down.
and here now on the blog there is a call - let's exchange recipes for well-known dishes! So I took the plunge. Moreover, I cook it slightly differently, in Krivoy Rog, my mother taught me this way: as many housewives as there are, there are so many recipes for borscht... and even though the recipe differs slightly from the usual one, it is still – well, very tasty! try it, you won’t regret it.. we will need:
a piece of meat (pork, veal or beef), but certainly with a bone!
- about 1-1.5 kg. 1 beetroot
1 carrot
1 or 2 onions

Ukrainian borscht: step-by-step recipe for making and tips for housewives

Greetings to all our dear subscribers and ordinary readers! Now at “Own House” we are preparing Ukrainian borscht. It’s worth mentioning a little here - almost all chefs love to break spears, proving that their recipe for a Ukrainian dish is the most realistic. But in fact, every region has its own recipe for making it, just as every housewife can have her own - the most faithful and tried one. Therefore, our article provides a step-by-step recipe with photos and 5 options from other regions of the country.

Usually, borscht is prepared with meat: beef or pork. My husband remembers how his grandmother from the Ukrainian hinterland constantly prepared a very tasty, rich rooster broth for the arrival of guests. But we haven’t yet acquired poultry in our house, so I went to the market and bought pork ribs. So let's get started!

This capital recipe differs in its energy-intensive and labor-intensive action. Its production takes 3 days. The dish is prepared using beet kvass with rye bread. Along with the cabbage, crushed sour apples are also added to the broth. But, although the whole development of production requires so much time and effort, the result is worth it and will certainly delight with its taste the one who dares to prepare this dish.

Poltava borscht with dumplings is the pinnacle of culinary art. It is prepared in goose broth and at the end they add dumplings made from choux pastry, which turn out very tasty and airy. Find out the recipe to add it to your favorite dishes.

Real Transcarpathian borscht according to an old recipe will certainly please your family. For this dish, housewives bake beets in the oven.

At the same time, all the beneficial substances in the root vegetable are preserved, and the borscht comes out a rich red color.

On smoked meats

Previously, we added smoked meats to pea soup, but in borscht - maybe you haven’t seen anything like that yet. In this recipe, the highlight will be not only smoked meat, but also fragrant mushrooms and sauerkraut. Try to cook this borscht, which came to us from the western regions of Ukraine.

Anyone who has never been to Odessa does not understand what real Odessa borscht is. It is there that they prepare everything that is truly authentic and certainly Ukrainian. One of the criteria is to cook with beef.

Feel the smell of Deribasovskaya and try to cook with us the way they cook it in Odessa. This borscht just begs to be served with donuts and sour cream.

Useful tips

Our hidden ingredient - lard with garlic and salt - does not necessarily need to be added to a common pan. I place it on the table separately so that anyone can put it on their plate or spread it on bread.
Pounded lard with garlic is called “grout” in Ukraine because it is ground in a mortar and pestle. It must be without meat and certainly mature.
To prevent the beets from losing their color, add acid. This could be vinegar or apple acid. But I prefer juice from squeezed lemon. If you have tomato juice, then you don’t need to add any acid.
For greater acidity, you can add a little brine from canned tomatoes to sautéed vegetables. Then additional boric acid will be unnecessary here, but it is better to focus on your own taste.
If you want to cook a tasty broth, place the meat in cool water. If the meat is juicy, then roast it.
Some boil beets separately in their skins. But in this case, the borscht should not be boiled for a long time, otherwise the color that the beets give will evaporate.
Young cabbage does not like to be cooked for a long time. It just needs to boil.

Conclusion

Now we have prepared Ukrainian borscht with meat. We saw how many different options there are for making it. And maybe they even wanted to cook one of them.

Surely, it is not in vain that they say that 100 housewives from a similar borscht set will cook 100 borschts with different tastes. Why is this so? Please share your ideas on this topic. Let the smell of a real Ukrainian dish fill your home with peace and joy.
