Okroshka is a traditional summer dish whose popularity increases during warm weather.
Preparing this soup is very simple: chopped meat and vegetable ingredients just need to be poured with cold liquid. Usually, kefir or kvass is used for this.
The speed and simplicity of preparing the dish are combined with its incredible taste.
This is very convenient: making okroshka takes little time, while the gourmet can enjoy the meal, feel full, and cool off.
But there is a way to make the soup even tastier.
There is a little-known hack that turns ordinary okroshka into a real culinary sensation.
What to Add to Okroshka
The traditional ingredient of okroshka is green onions. Usually, they are simply chopped and added to the bowl with the soup.
However, it is better not to use the onions in their “pure” form. It is better to mash them with salt.
The resulting mixture should be combined with grated garlic. In the end, you will get a spicy mixture that should be added to the okroshka.
Although the additional ingredients seem simple, the taste of the dish noticeably changes. And, of course, for the better.
Okroshka acquires an interesting sharpness that makes this dish almost festive.
