Many people like to treat their families to borscht from time to time, forgetting that this dish in its classic version is quite unhealthy.
Fatty meat broth along with fried vegetables and vinegar does not correspond to the principles of healthy eating.
However, experts believe that the popular dish can be made much healthier.
What tricks will help with this?
Less fat
Don't add a piece of butter to make the soup tastier. Try to cook lean borscht or soup based on dietary meats.
You can prepare borscht without frying or add a limited amount of vegetable oil.
Celery and ginger
These components are not included in the classic recipe, but there is no reason not to include them. Celery and ginger are considered to be among the most useful products.
Giving up vinegar
Some people think that you can't make real borscht without vinegar. But this is a misconception. Its role can be perfectly fulfilled by tomato paste or lemon juice, which are much healthier.
