Okroshka: 6 traditional recipes for okroshka with sausage

Hello, dear guests. Agree, there is nothing better in the heat than a plate filled with okroshka and sausage. Well, apart from the ice cream, of course.

Since my youth, I ate it only with kvass and did not even suspect that it could be prepared with other watery bases. And only when I got married and began to learn different recipes on how to amaze my spouse, this was a discovery for me.

By the way, okroshka for the first course and potato pancakes for the second - and you’ll have a good lunch.

So we will now look at recipes for making this cool soup using various watery bases.

And so that I don’t repeat myself, I’ll say right away - you need to boil the potatoes and eggs before you start crumbling the ingredients for this soup. Usually potatoes here are boiled in their skins, and then peeled.

By the way, the name of okroshka comes from the word “crumb”, and it has been prepared in Rus' since ancient times.

Okroshka with sausage and radish on kvass

Naturally, I will start with my own beloved method, familiar from my youth.

Boiled potatoes - 4 pcs.
Fresh cucumber - 6 pcs.
Radishes - 10 pcs.
Boiled eggs - 4 pcs.
Sausage - 300 gr.
Dill and green onions - a bunch each
Mustard - 3 teaspoons
Okroshechny kvass – 1.5 l
Garlic - optional

If you don’t have okroshka kvass, replace it with bread kvass and add a little horseradish.

1. Cut boiled potatoes, cucumber, sausage, and radishes into cubes. In boiled eggs, separate the whites from the yolks and chop them too.

2. Place it all in one bowl and stir.

3. The dressing is ready, put it in the refrigerator.

4. Mash the yolks with a fork, add mustard and stir.

5. Transfer to a separate container and also into the refrigerator.

6. Chop the greens and mix.

7. Remember very little so that the greens release their juice, and also into the refrigerator.

All this can be stored in the refrigerator for a number of days. If necessary.

8. To serve, first put the egg yolk on a plate, pour a little kvass and mix well.

9. Next - dressing and herbs, and add as much kvass as necessary.

10. And, like the “icing on the cake,” add sour cream.

Yum-yum is ready, enjoy.

Now you can try it.

I'll stop there for now. There are many methods, and not only with sausage. Okroshka is also prepared with other meat products. So to speak, the most complex recipes, although not by much.

There are also not enough such recipes, and I will certainly write about this again, but in another article.

Step-by-step recipe with photos

I now suggest preparing okroshka with sausage in water according to the traditional recipe.

For the dish, use ordinary filtered water. I really like the huge amount of sour cream in okroshka, so there’s no need to skimp on it, but if you’re a mayonnaise fan, add that to okroshka too. Let's take the most delicious boiled sausage for the recipe, and also add a traditional set of ingredients - the freshest cucumbers, potatoes, chicken eggs, the freshest fragrant herbs. Okroshka should be served chilled.

So, prepare all the necessary ingredients according to the list. In advance you need to boil chicken eggs and potatoes.

Peel the boiled potato tubers, then cut them into small cubes and place in a deep bowl.

Wash and dry the freshest cucumbers, cut off the stems on both sides, check that there is no bitterness in the cucumbers. Cut the cucumbers into small cubes and add to the potatoes.

Cut the sausage into small cubes, similar to the other ingredients. Add the sausage to the container with the remaining ingredients.

Peel the boiled chicken eggs, separate the whites from the yolks. Cut the whites into cubes and add to a common container.

Place the yolks separately, grind, add finely chopped dill and green onions. Throw in a pinch of salt, grind the greens and yolks, and if desired, add a little mustard.

Add the yolks and herbs to the remaining ingredients. Add sour cream, salt and ground pepper to the container.

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.

3 medium-sized new cucumbers
3 potatoes
10 radishes

Cook the eggs separately from the potatoes! This is both hygienic and allows you to salt the water for the eggs so that they don’t burst or leak. The finished eggs and potatoes are cut into chilled cubes.

Finely chop the cucumbers, thinly slice the radishes, and chop the sausage into cubes.

Finely chop the greens and mix all the ingredients in a deep bowl, adding horseradish and mustard.

If you pour kvass into the prepared mixture, the okroshka will infuse and taste better. Just before serving, add a good spoonful of sour cream.
