Good evening, Steemit! :)

Today I will tell you about one of the traditional dishes in Russian cuisine this is the famous cold soup — okroshka.
Okroshka like almost everything. Every housewife prepares it in their own way, but no family, wherever in the hot summer day didn't cook the okroshka.


This cold soup has more than a hundred different recipes. But there is one classic recipe of okroshka.


INGREDIENTS:

bunch of greens – about 100 grams;
boiled potatoes - 5-6 pieces of medium size;
5 boiled eggs;
two tablespoons fat sour cream;
4 fresh cucumber medium size;
about 300 grams of ham;
0.5 liters of boiled cold water
tablespoon of vinegar;
salt and ground black pepper.


Cooking process:


Greens is a mixture of parsley, dill and green onions. Tear greens into small pieces with your hands, so it will give a less bitter juice.
Chop the potatoes, cucumbers, eggs and ham.
Put all cooked food in a ceramic tureen or another pot. Add the sour cream, salt, pour water first and pour half a tablespoon of vinegar. Then try the soup to taste, and gradually add vinegar to taste until the desired acid. At the end put in the fridge.


This is the classic recipe of okroshka can be made more spicy and unusual taste. To do this, instead of ham, add to the soup chopped pork barbecue.
Remember this way of cooking cold soup, in case you have cold meat from the picnic. In the okroshka it would be appropriate, and vinegar make meat softer.
Bon appetit!
