Many housewives prepare borscht with potatoes, beets and other vegetables.
But just one ingredient can ruin the taste of this dish.
Chef Yulia Arkhipova told what is best not to add to borscht.
Extra ingredient
Experienced cooks advise not to add potatoes to borscht.
Thanks to this ingredient, the dish will be quite filling.
But because of the potatoes, the broth may turn out cloudy, and the taste of the other ingredients will simply be “lost.”
Therefore, excluding potatoes will add richness to the dish. It is worth preparing borscht without potatoes using the classic technology.
What other ingredients are best not to add?
Bay leaf should be used with caution. This spice is very insidious and can irrevocably spoil the taste of the dish.
Therefore, it is better to choose it in sheet form rather than powder form.
In this case, after 10 or 15 minutes after adding the bay leaf, it is advisable to remove it from the pan. Otherwise, the dish will be bitter.
Cloves are not suitable for borscht. They will give the soup a spicy and slightly sour taste.
Earlier, the chef explained how to make jellied meat transparent.
