Okroshka is a favorite product of many, especially when the thermometer outside the window shows a temperature above + 28 ° C in the morning. Then you don't want to think about food at all, but we need strength for the whole day. Then okroshka is the real salvation. There is no one basic recipe for it. Each chef and hostess has her own time-tested and favorite recipe. It is prepared with kvass, mineral water, broth, whey, kefir, etc. Today I will share a recipe for a cold soup - okroshka with sausage in water and sour cream. This cold summer soup is prepared very quickly and easily. The technological process is somewhat reminiscent of the preparation of the Olivier salad. But here all prepared products are still filled with a liquid base, from which okroshka turns out to be rich and satisfying. Before starting cooking, I will share some useful cooking tips.
- The most high-calorie okroshka is obtained with mayonnaise. Use low-fat mayonnaise or sour cream to reduce calories.
- Okroshka in mayonnaise is not stored for long, so make it in a small amount.
- You can put the chopped vegetables in a saucepan and keep them in the refrigerator. And before serving, put a portion of vegetables in a plate, season with mayonnaise, mix and dilute with liquid.
- Boil water for okroshka in advance so that it has time to cool in the refrigerator. Instead of boiled water, you can take mineral water.
- If there is no need to limit yourself in food and calories, then in addition to milk sausage, you can add ham or smoked sausage to okroshka.
- The liquid in okroshka should be sour. Citric acid, lemon juice, or vinegar will do this well.
- Cook potatoes for okroshka "in their uniforms" so that they do not boil during cooking.
- Mustard, horseradish or pepper will add pungency and piquancy to okroshka.
