Potatoes will remain hard: here's a common mistake that ruins rassolnik
A rich and vibrant dish that is perfect for winter can be hopelessly ruined.
The chefs explained which mistake leads to an unpleasant result and gave two options for solving it.
Rassolnik will ruin the potatoes, which remain hard even after long cooking. One mistake leads to this result.
Pickled cucumbers, which contain a lot of acid, are added to rassolnik. Sometimes spinach, sorrel and other similar ingredients are also added to this dish.
It is because of the acid that the potatoes seem hard even after prolonged cooking. It seems that they are raw.
There are two ways to solve this problem. The potatoes are boiled separately and then added to the soup. Or the cucumbers are added when the vegetables are cooked.
In this case, the rassolnik will be very tasty, and the potatoes will not disappoint with their hardness. The same rule applies to other ingredients that contain acid.
