Many people know that borscht should be a little sour, but everything is good in moderation.
If the acidity of the borscht literally makes your teeth ache, then the situation requires our control.
Sometimes it is possible to identify a problem at the cooking stage, which will significantly simplify the task of correcting the situation, noted Yulia Arkhipova, an expert in the field of cooking for the online publication BelNovosti.
What secrets will help save sour borscht?
Add carrots
It is known that this vegetable is very sweet and tasty, so it will not spoil the borsch. You can simply boil the carrots together with the other ingredients whole, and then remove them.
Or you can simply add it as an additional ingredient, after grating it and frying it separately.
Sugar
This is the simplest and most logical way to solve the problem. You just need to initially assess the sourness of the borscht. If the soup is not very sour, then you can get by with just one pinch of sugar.
If the acidity is noticeable, you can add 0.5-1 teaspoon.
