Borsch is a national Ukrainian dish that has long gone beyond the borders of this state. Wherever they cook it! Moreover, each housewife will have it different and in a special way unique. This is because you can endlessly experiment with it. Do you want to have both the first and the second course at the same time? Cook borsch with meatballs and serve the same donuts with garlic or regular boiled potatoes... Do you want to cook beetroot hodgepodge? Do not be greedy and put a lot of different sausages and smoked meats in the pan. Do you like to cook something unusual? Make borscht with beans and prunes.

Just look at how many names borscht has! He is both Kuban and Divskoy (as the monks of the Divnogorsk monastery called him), and Norwegian and Siberian. In general, there is a lot of flight for fantasy.

Ingredients:

  • beets - 1 large root vegetable,
  • carrots - 1 pc.,
  • onions - 1 head,
  • tomato sauce- 1 tablespoon,
  • vinegar - 4 teaspoons,
  • garlic - 2 cloves,
  • a piece of fresh or salted bacon,
  • salt, seasonings - to taste.

Cooking process:

Although only salt, black ground pepper, lavrushka and garlic are put into the traditional borscht, my hand, no, no, reaches for the store's “poisonous” spices. They are like a drug, adding at least once to a dish, it is impossible to stop, so little by little, but add it to other dishes. I think this is not only my misfortune, many other housewives are "addicted" to such seasonings. I just want to say: "Let's unite in circles according to interests, or rather, according to the types of frequently used additives!" But something pulled me into the wrong steppe ... So, back to the borscht, which we will cook in ceramic pots. If there are none, take a cast iron. Well, if there is neither one nor the other, you just have to swallow saliva and silently envy.

We clean the vegetables, wash and start. Heat up the frying pan. Throw finely chopped bacon into it and fry it over high heat. We need to get fat. Salce will not keep you waiting for a long time, therefore, literally in a minute, they will float in your frying pan. pork fat crispy pieces.


To them we put beets and carrots grated on a coarse grater, chopped onions.


Stir and simmer vegetables over low heat, covered for 20 minutes. Then add tomato sauce, salt and seasonings to them.


Mix again and keep on the stove for another 5-7 minutes. If you skip this step and immediately put the ingredients in the pots, the borscht will turn out to be not so rich, aromatic and rich.

Place the resulting beetroot mass in pots. Fill up to the top with water.


We will definitely try. If there is not enough salt, add salt. Pour 2 teaspoons of vinegar into each container, close the lids and put in a cold oven.

I love borscht with sourness, so for me vinegar is almost the main component in borscht, except for beets, of course. You see for yourself. You can not add it at all or replace it with any brine. We simmer our pots of soup in the oven at 190 degrees for 1.5 hours.


20 minutes before shutdown oven squeeze one clove of garlic into each.


Ready borsch serve directly in pots.


Firstly, it is more effective this way, and secondly, you will have to wash less dishes after dinner. Enjoy your beet meal!

Red borscht is ours the National dish and pride! Red borscht is a Ukrainian dish, but Russia also fell in love with it so much that for many, many years it began to consider it its own dish. Our compatriots abroad also do not forget their traditions and cuisine and are happy to cook borscht and treat them to their foreign friends and relatives. I must say that many people really like our borscht, many are simply surprised how all these ingredients can be mixed together in the form of a soup. But surely no one remains indifferent. I will give an example of borscht prepared according to the old custom, say, according to the old technology, in a pot. Previously, of course, this dish was cooked in the oven, but we will cook it the way modern city conditions allow us - in the oven. In the oven, of course, in a different way, somehow more natural or something. Yes, what can I say, in the past, cooking methods were more environmentally friendly, and this significantly affected the quality of food. Now we are more and more striving for those old recipes and, probably, that is why we love dishes baked in pots in the oven, a modern stove so much. So borscht can be cooked the way our great-grandmothers cooked it. Borsch was cooked in a cauldron with a lid in the oven, and if there was no lid, then they covered the ceramic pot with dough. We will cook just such a borscht today. So let's get started.

To cook red borscht in the oven in a pot, you will need:

brisket with bone - 500 g
beans - 100 g
potatoes - 200 g
carrots - 200 g
red beets - 200 g
garlic - 2 cloves
onion - 1 pc.
white cabbage - 200 g
tomato paste - 50 g
lard - 50 g
spices, bay leaves, salt, black pepper - to taste
vegetable oil for frying
greens, hot peppers, green onions- for decoration

1. Boil the meat, add salt, spices, bay leaf, pepper to the broth.
2. While the meat is cooking, chop the vegetables. Diced potatoes, carrots and beets - straws. Finely chop the onion. Finely chop the cabbage.
3. Fry the beets in vegetable oil for 15 minutes. Then put them in a ceramic pot.
4. Finely chop the bacon and add to the pan. Add chopped garlic and fry until garlic aroma appears. Then add onions and carrots. Fry a little together, stirring for about 10 minutes. Also put in a pot.
5. Add potatoes and beans to the pot. The beans must already be prepared, that is, we have already soaked them overnight.
6. Add cabbage and pour over all vegetables with broth, put meat on top. Add tomato paste and mix everything.
7. Heat the oven to 180 degrees. At this time, prepare the lid from the dough. Unleavened dough from half a glass of flour and a couple of tablespoons of water. Knead a little dough, add a little more water if needed. Knead this dough until smooth, until it stops sticking to your hands. Roll out the dough and cover the pot with borscht.
8. Put the pot in the oven for an hour.

In our distant childhood, my brother and I always spent winter holidays with my grandmother in the village.
Everything was covered with a thick layer of snow, and the boys and I drove all day on homemade ice skates and played hockey on a frozen lake right in the middle of the vegetable gardens.
And then they ran into the house. Frozen, with red cheeks. In the hallway, they took off their boots, covered with snow, and fur coats, and ran to the upper room, where grandmother, with a long-handled stag, took out a pot of freshly boiled borscht from the oven.

It was the best and the most delicious borsch in the world.
The grandmother has long been dead. But I have that pot in which my grandmother cooked borscht for me and my brother then, many years ago ...
And today at the Bachelor's dinner grandmother's borscht. Cooked in grandma's pot.

We need the most common set of products for borscht:
- brisket with bone - 400-500 g;
- cabbage, beets, carrots, onions, potatoes, garlic, beans;
- a small piece of bacon;
- tomato paste, vegetable oil, salt, allspice, bay leaf
- greens, hot peppers, green onions for serving

First we cook meat broth... I add a little salt to it and add a few peas of allspice at the end

In fact, the whole value of this dish is in a ceramic pot. In it my grandmother cooked borscht when I was still very young. Hundreds and thousands of times it was put into the oven and taken out. With borsch, stewed potatoes, soup ...
The grandmother has been dead for a long time. But now, every time I take this pot out of the cupboard to cook something in the oven, I remember her. Her and her childhood

But back to borscht. While the broth finishes boiling, cut the beets into large strips

And simmer it for a short time with the addition of broth. Enough 10-15 minutes.
After that, we transfer the beets to the pot.

Cut the bacon into small pieces, squeeze 1-2 cloves of garlic onto it. Stir ...

And in a frying pan, on a slow fire. When the lard has released a little fat, add finely chopped onions and carrots to the pan. We don't keep it on fire for a long time - just a few minutes. And we also add to our pot

We clean and dice the potatoes, add the pre-soaked beans and cabbage .. Yes, I only like borscht with beans. I simply do not perceive the other. But that's my personal taste.

Mix everything, add tomato paste and fill with broth with pieces of meat

Now you need to make a lid for the pot. We take half a glass of flour and add a little water, knead the dough.
Knead it until it is homogeneous and does not stop sticking to your hands.

Roll out the dough into a pancake and cover the pot with it, squeezing the neck tightly. The dough should not be very thin, otherwise it may crack in the oven and allow air to enter the pot.

After that, we place the pot in the oven, preheated to 180 degrees.
Now the borscht will simmer in a pot, covered with dough for 40-60 minutes. You can even longer, you don't have to worry, the vegetables will not boil over.

We get it out. As soon as I stirred the pot, a crack appeared on the baked dough lid.

We open. And enjoy the aroma. Let it not be in the oven. But real grandma's borscht. In grandma's pot

Serve with donuts, grated garlic, hot pepper and green onions.

Bon Appetit!
