Sometimes our joy at the sight of bright ruby borscht is premature: the hue remains literally until the first boiling.

Afterwards the beautiful color changes to orange at best.

In order to avoid such a situation, you just need to remember a couple of tricks, says chef Yulia Arkhipova , an expert on culinary issues for the online publication BelNovosti.

What do they consist of?

A little sweetness never hurts

You've probably heard that some housewives add sugar to borscht. This solution may seem a bit strange, but it's quite reasonable.

First of all, sugar plays a role in preserving the desired shade. The second task of the product is to maintain the balance of taste: it balances the sourness.

Vinegar

Some housewives are in no hurry to add vinegar, as they are afraid of the appearance of a characteristic unpleasant taste. But when using a small amount of the component, you can not even worry about it.

On the contrary, the borscht will only become tastier and brighter.
