Therefore, you should always remember the important options for improving the taste of this dish..
Our magazine’s cooking expert, chef Yulia Arkhipova, told us about the tricks that will help you achieve what you want.
How to improve the taste of borscht?
Work on the broth
As it turns out, the hardest part is making a decent broth. In this case, the borscht itself turns out rich and aromatic.
Therefore, experienced cooks often use different types of meat to improve the quality of borscht.
Minimum potatoes
Many people put too many potatoes, forgetting that this ‘clogs’ the taste. Therefore, try to add less potatoes.
Don’t forget about greens
This additive will make the soup incredibly appetizing. You can add classic greens – parsley, dill, green onions.
Lard
This is the most important additive that will make the borscht perfect. The product is crushed together with garlic cloves using a mortar and added to the finished borscht.
