Onions, peppers and that's it. You can have some rice, but that's a little different.

I have been adding a bit of soaked bread or semolina to meatballs for a long time. So they are gentle. Well, onion and pepper and salt.
Masha Ivanova
I only have onions, salt, pepper

Buttercup, I add finely chopped onions and eggs to the meatballs, and of course my favorite spices. According to the mood of rice. But I can just make it from one minced meat, if the soup is with rice.
Masha Ivanova
Mandraik Ludmila, oh! I forgot about the egg! Nelya speaks correctly! If your minced meat sticks together well, is dense, then you can do it without an egg. And if it turns out to be thin, then you have to fasten it with an egg.

Exactly. You can have an egg, but you can also do without it.
Mandraik Ludmila
Thank you girls! I haven't made meatballs for years. So I'll see how it is molded and if necessary add an egg .. I thought so, you can add a little oatmeal instead of semolina for tenderness, but a little.
Thank you for helping out!

Angela, of course you can go without an egg. But with an egg, the meatballs are denser and don't boil over. I usually get shit without an egg. But remembering from childhood that usually my mother cooked almost all soups with the addition of a beaten egg, and these rags in the soup always interfered with me. I myself, already in my family, could only add an egg to green borscht, but I began to add this egg to soup with meatballs.

Here I am a dead end, only now it dawned on me that you wanted to look at the consistency of minced meat, and not learn how to mold meatballs. Well, okay, it might come in handy. There seems to be a recipe there too ...

Dear ones. Once a friend told me the recipe for Ukrainian borscht, I remember that there is hot pepper in it and that borscht is being prepared for a day and a half (well, not when it's already in the pan, but the whole process in general). Maybe someone knows the recipe for such / approximately such borscht?
Svetta
Nikka, I always cook a piece of hot pepper in a saucepan of borscht. I see nothing unusual.
I have never heard of cooking borscht for a day and a half, I can't even imagine what you can do with borscht for so long.
And what is such a recipe for?

I don’t think that this long borscht will be so much different from the usual one. Often, with some complications, we attribute to dishes a special taste or properties IMHO

Sveta, as the potatoes boil for about 5 minutes. I throw it in a piece, so that later I can take out the recognizable from the plate or pan.

The earlier you add, the more spicy the broth will be. Peppers do not immediately give off all their pungency, especially when dried.
I used to add only red hot pepper powder, but everywhere: in meat, minced meat, pancakes, bread, pancakes, pancakes and even in cookies, but once the pepper ran out, it was only in the pods, I had to throw it in, the broth turns out - fire!

Daily soup-borscht is finally a delicious thing!

Maybe borscht should just be infused so much? It always tastes better for me when it's infused, on the second, third day.

If not all homemade people eat spicy, then you can dip a piece of hot pepper into a plate of hot soup. The effect will be the same as if you put the pepper in a saucepan at the end of cooking.
The main thing with pepper is not to overdo it.

As a child, I remember my dad always had a salt shaker with hot pepper. I came for lunch and rinsed the pepper in the borscht.

It looks like "Kievsky borsch" according to Pokhlebkin.

"Borscht

An indispensable part of borscht is beets. It gives it its basic flavor and color.

As a rule, borscht is cooked in meat, bone or mixed meat and bone broth. A properly prepared broth is the basis of a good borscht.

Borsch broth is usually made from brisket, less often from a thin and thick edge or curl. The bones are always pre-crushed along, and the cartilaginous parts are separated. Duration of cooking bones 4-6 hours, meat - 2-2.5 hours After the water boils, the broth continues to cook over low heat. When cooking meat and bone broth, the bones are first boiled, and then, two hours before the end of their cooking, the meat is laid and cooked until cooked, after which the meat is removed from the broth and the vegetable part of the borscht is prepared in the broth, where the meat is again laid in only 10-15 min until the borscht is fully cooked. By the end of cooking, no more than 1.5 cups of pure broth per serving should remain in the borscht, therefore, at the beginning of cooking, pour at least twice as much water as it is supposed to get broth.
A few words about the ratio of meat in borscht. Beef brisket and pork are usually laid in a 2: 1 or 1: 1 ratio. In addition, after the end of cooking the main broth, small amounts of lamb, ham, sausages, homemade sausages in finely chopped form are sometimes added to some types of borscht at the rate of 1: 4 in relation to the main borscht meat.

Borscht can also be made with goose or chicken broth (Poltava and Odessa). In this case, the addition of other meat is excluded.

The peculiarity of the preparation of the vegetable part of the borscht is the preliminary separate processing of vegetables. Beets, for example, are always stewed separately from other vegetables.Previously, it is sprinkled with vinegar (or citric acid, lemon juice is added), which is necessary to preserve the red color, put in heated fat (lard, oil) and stew until tender. Sometimes beets are baked or boiled until half cooked in a peel and only then peeled, cut and dipped in broth.

Saute finely chopped onions, carrots and parsley into strips for 15 minutes, while the vegetables should be covered with fat. Before the end of the sautéing, tomato puree or finely chopped tomatoes are added to the vegetables and sauté continues until the fat turns into the color of the tomatoes.

It is very important to consistently put vegetables in the broth - in strict dependence on the duration of their cooking. Potatoes are placed 30 minutes before the borscht is ready, cabbage - 20 minutes, cooked stewed beets - 15 minutes, browned vegetables (onions, carrots, parsley) - 15 minutes, spices - 5-8 minutes, garlic (separately from the rest of the spices) - in 2 minutes.

The main type of fat used for borscht is lard. It is pounded or ground in a mortar with garlic, onions and parsley until a smooth mass is formed and the borscht is seasoned with it 2-3 minutes until cooked.

Most borscht to give them a peculiar sour taste is prepared not only on water, but on kvass-sirovts, on sauerkraut juice and on beetroot sourdough (infusions), adding them mainly after boiling the meat into the finished broth, trying not to subject it to prolonged boiling.

The borscht, brought to readiness, is put on a very low heat of a gas stove so that it does not cool too much, and it is allowed to brew for another 20 minutes, after which it is served on the table.

Thus, borscht takes at least 3 hours to cook, and even 5-6 hours when boiling in bone broth.

Various varieties of borscht most often bear the name of the area in which they appeared: Kiev, Poltava, Lviv, Volyn, Chernihiv, Galician borscht, etc. What is the difference between them? Firstly, in the nature of the broth: bone, meat, meat and bone, from various varieties and combinations of meat (beef, pork, poultry); secondly, in the method of heat treatment of beets (stewed, baked, semi-cooked). In addition, the set of vegetables for borscht can be different. Mandatory ingredients in borscht, in addition to beets, are cabbage, carrots, potatoes, parsley, onions, tomatoes, additional - beans, apples (sour, best unripe), zucchini, turnip. Vegetables in borscht are cut into strips, with the exception of courgettes and potatoes, which are cut into cubes and large pieces, respectively. The beans are pre-boiled separately, since they are cooked for a long time - more than an hour, and they fill the borscht with it 15 minutes before being cooked. Turnips are sautéed with carrots. Apples and zucchini are not sautéed, they are laid after the rest of the vegetables as the most pressure cooker, but no later than 10 minutes before readiness.
Finally, some types of borscht are seasoned with still toasted flour to give the borscht liquid a thicker consistency. However, this is not necessary and even undesirable for a good kitchen, as it can spoil the aroma of borscht with inept toasting. But refueling borscht with sour cream after serving is required.

In the several recipes for borsch presented here, approximate norms and the range of products used are indicated. The amount of broth in the finished borscht is everywhere 1.5-1.75 liters. This means that you need to take 3 liters of water initially.

Kiev borsch

250 g beef
250 g lamb
1/4 head of cabbage
4 potatoes
1 large beet
0.5 l of beet kvass (see recipes "kvass and beet infusions for borscht")
2 tbsp. beans
2 sour apples
2-3 tomatoes
2 tbsp. spoons of butter
1 tbsp. a spoonful of finely chopped bacon
1-2 onions
1 carrot
1 parsley
1 tbsp. a spoonful of parsley
1 teaspoon of celery greens
3 bay leaves
3 allspice peas
1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper
0.5 heads of garlic
Dip the beef in boiling water, pour the beetroot kvass and boil the broth.Stew separately: 1) beets with lamb brisket, cut into small pieces; 2) tomatoes in oil; 3) onions, carrots, parsley root.

Then boil cabbage and potatoes in broth until half cooked, add stewed vegetables and cook for another 10-15 minutes, season with boiled beans, and at the very end - garlic grated with lard and chopped parsley.

If by the end of cooking the borscht is not sour enough, add another glass of beet kvass. "
"Kvass and beet infusions for borscht

The best Ukrainian borscht is cooked on beet infusions and kvass. Below are several recipes for such kvass and infusions.

Beetroot infusion is simple. Grate peeled beets, pour boiled water and put in a warm place for 3-4 days. The ratio of beets to water (by weight) is 1: 2.

Beet brewed infusion. Grate the peeled beets on a coarse grater, pour a glass of hot meat broth, add citric acid and bring to a boil over high heat. Let it brew for 30 minutes.

Beet-bread kvass. Cut 0.5 kg of black bread into slices, pour 1.5 liters of warm boiled water, put 6 pcs. peeled and chopped beets, let it brew for 2 days (in the daytime in the sun, at night in a warm place), stir frequently. On the third day, strain, after which the kvass will be ready for use in borscht.

Kvass-sirovets. To prepare this kvass for 2 liters of water, take 0.5 kg of rye flour and 10 g of yeast. 1-2 tbsp. Dissolve tablespoons of flour with yeast in warm water (about 1 - 1.5 cups) and let it ferment (sourdough). Pour the remaining flour with hot water, knead the dough until thick sour cream and put in a warm place.
Add the leaven to the dough, dilute with warm water (until the consistency of thick kvass). Top up with water as you use it (0.5 l per 1 l of liquid used). "


The cooking time can be further increased due to such techniques as defatting the broth or steeping in heat, which is more typical for cooking cabbage soup.

In the first version, after cooking the broth, it is cooled and placed in the refrigerator, the next day the floating fat is removed with a slotted spoon or filtered through a sieve. Depending on the recipe, the fat is either simply removed or added when stewing beets.
For the second option, insist for several hours and put it in the refrigerator, warm it up before serving, add herbs and sour cream.

"Shchi per diem
Cook in the same way as simple meat cabbage soup, but without potatoes. Partially lay the spices - without parsley, dill and garlic. After cooking cabbage soup, wrap it up in a warm one, and after 3-4 hours put it in the cold for one day. The next day, warm up, add spicy herbs and garlic, sour cream "

The ribs were cooked earlier in the oven from start to finish. It took longer. And then you boil it for 15-20 minutes and then bake it. Much faster. I wanted to thank you for the recipe and save it just in case. I bought ribs, I want to try a new spread.

September, Olga, there must be some recitals, and not just one or two. But why reinvent the wheel
The main thing is that the meat becomes soft, and then smear it with what the soul requires. Any baking unit will make a ruddy crust.

You can't argue with that. Make it soft, smear it with something, bake, I agree, not a problem. Just like boiling borscht, frying potatoes, baking pancakes, cookies, etc. But, is this a topic for those who are looking for their lost "wheel"? And there can be any number of options.
