Sometimes we don’t even think about the fact that certain ingredients can simply ruin a popular dish.
Sometimes we come across interesting recommendations regarding borscht.
However, not all such advice should be followed, notes Yulia Arkhipova, a culinary expert for the online publication BelNovosti.
What products would be clearly unnecessary in borscht?
Mutton
This type of meat should definitely not be used for making borsch. First of all, it is worth remembering that lamb is too fatty.
The second reason is that the meat has too strong a taste and aroma, so the borscht will lose its unique characteristics.
Vegetable oil
This point probably surprised many: almost every housewife uses vegetable oil for frying and for processing beets.
As it turns out, it is best to use ghee.
Choose your greens wisely
Only onion can be considered a universal seasoning. But parsley is added only if you cooked borscht on a beef bone.
Dill complements borscht made with pork and chicken broth.
