Okroshka is a cold soup that is extremely popular in the post-Soviet space.

The dish can be prepared with kefir or kvass. Let's pay special attention to the second version of the dish.

Okroshka with kvass will be much tastier if you pour a mixture of vegetables, meat, eggs and herbs into a non-standard version of the drink.

It is desirable that the liquid component of the cold soup contains 5 additional ingredients at once.

  • salt;
  • sugar;
  • mustard;
  • sour cream;
  • mashed yolk of a boiled egg.

In other words, kvass should not only be salted. The drink should also have all possible other flavors.

A pinch of granulated sugar is needed to add a sweet note that will make the other flavors brighter.

The kvass used to make okroshka is usually unsweetened. A small amount of sugar will add a slight sweetness.

Half a teaspoon of mustard will give the dish a piquant taste.

Sour cream and yolks are needed for a more delicate consistency, a very pleasant aroma and nutritional value.

Using all of the above ingredients will guarantee that your cold soup will turn into a culinary masterpiece.
