Rassolnik
As a child I loved only one soup, and even then, not soup, but just broth with pasta. My mother always made this dish if someone was sick, with homemade chicken, thin vermicelli - just delicious! But rassolnik, on the contrary, never liked, ate it through force, if it was impossible to avoid this "punishment". That's why in my adult life I never cooked rassolnik voluntarily, but here I wanted it so badly. Even pickled cucumbers were in the fridge. In the evening soaked the pearl soup, in the morning put everything on the fire and at lunch we were waiting for a wonderful, rich and rich soup. I think I will cook it sometimes, especially since my daughter also liked it.
Composition:
- telatin - 300 gr.
- perlovka - 0,5 tbsp.
- onion - 1 pcs.
- carrots - 1 pc.
- potatoes - 3-4 pcs.
- salted cucumbers - 2-3 pcs.
- dill, parsley
- salt, pepper
Cooking rassolnik:
Perlovka should be rinsed in advance, pour cold water and put for 8-10 hours to soak.
Cut veal into small pieces, pour cold water over it and put it on the fire.
Cut veal into small pieces, pour cold water over it and put it on the fire.
As soon as the broth boils, skim off the foam, add the soaked perlovka and simmer for about an hour until the perlovka and meat are cooked.
Simmer for about an hour, until the perlovka and meat are cooked.
Then add the finely diced onions and carrots. Some people fry the onions and carrots separately in a frying pan with sunflower oil, but I like my soups less greasy, so I add the vegetables to the broth raw.
Then add the diced potatoes and simmer until they are half cooked. Then add the pickles. The cucumbers can be diced or grated. I prefer the latter.
Only after adding the cucumbers, salt and pepper the soup (if you do it before, you can over-salt it, as the cucumbers will add their own salt), add the bay leaf.
When the soup is ready, add finely chopped herbs, simmer for 2-3 minutes and turn it off.
Add the soup to the soup.
Serve rassolnik can be served with sour cream, chopped fresh herbs or simply with aromatic bread.
Happy appetite!
Be happy!
