Thanks to the successful combination of various ingredients, borscht almost always turns out delicious, even if the soup only vaguely resembles the classic recipe.
Therefore, it is worth taking note of the tricks that make the dish unforgettable and interesting.
What 3 secrets of delicious borscht are known to experienced cooks
"Correct" bone
It is known that the most delicious and rich broth is obtained if we prepare it based on a bone. But not all animal products are equally good.
Experienced cooks speak positively of the so-called sugar bone. It produces an ideal broth.
Proper cutting of beets
In most cases, beets are not cut because a grater seems like an easier way to shred them. However, the color is not as deep and vibrant.
Experienced cooks recommend finely chopping the beetroot. It is stewed in a small amount of water using sugar and tomato paste as "color fixers".
Apple cider vinegar
Few housewives know about this trick, but it will give the borsch a special flavor and will definitely not let the beets lose their color.
Apple cider vinegar is added in small quantities directly into the pot with borscht at the stage when the potatoes are already completely cooked.
