In general, you can cook it with whey and even with milk, with mayonnaise or sour cream. Mineral water is also added to this dish, as well as mustard and horseradish for a sharp taste. There are recipes with ayran, but still kvass okroshka is the most correct.

Of course, this dish will turn out to be the most delicious on homemade kvass, which you can cook with your own hands. But the hostesses cope with the task with the help of bottled kvass from the store.

Smile! Do you know why okroshka is called that? Once upon a time there lived two creatures - Olivierka and Kwasok. They were in love with each other, but the Gods envied this and separated them. And now they only meet summer heat. And when Kwasok meets Olivia, he joyfully cries out: “Oh, baby!”

Someone does not use okroshka at all, not understanding its taste and combination of products. Everyone has their own preferences. It’s not just that okroshka is accepted by foreigners as native Russian dish. I believe that the time of its use is very important for okroshka, namely the hot period.

What could be better than cold light meal in the heat, when appetite and strength are running out? Although in my family we cook it in the winter and eat it with pleasure, requiring supplements. It is important to teach children to this dish, its benefits are undeniable.

In the classic version, the components in this dish should be equal in volume. But if your family prefers a certain product, its quantity can be increased - this will not affect the taste.

How to cut okroshka - into strips, cubes or grind food on a grater? I ate in all versions and I myself cook in different ways, depending on the situation.

If you are going to cook a small amount summer dish, which is planned to be eaten immediately, then you can grind all the components into coarse grater. At the same time, a lot of juice from their cucumbers and radishes is released, which will only improve the taste of the dish, but such okroshka cannot be stored for a long time.

Die cutting involves more long-term storage food in the refrigerator. Some housewives store only a chopped mixture of sausages, vegetables and herbs in the refrigerator, and they add dressing and kvass immediately before serving, and rightly so. Always fresh and tasty okroshka on your table!

Video recipe for delicious okroshka on kvass

Most of all I like okroshka when all the vegetables are harvested in my garden. The first cucumbers, radishes, greens - all this is fresh, crispy, with an incredible smell of freshness and summer. With such products, it turns out the most delicious.

It is also good to buy fresh potatoes on the market. It's on sale early now. Even just boil it, and season it with garlic and dill, and it will be delicious. And in combination with others fresh vegetables, yes, with kvass, it’s impossible to describe in words at all.

In general, fresh vegetables are best. Even if you buy in a store or in the market, check that the cucumbers and radishes are not soft, but sour. Well, what kind of okroshka will turn out of such vegetables ?!

Today we will cook classic version with sausage, but if you want, you can completely replace it boiled meat or chicken. Or even cook it in lean version. By the way various options cooking you can see in a special article, there. Among them are both well-known and completely unknown.

And such an important component as kvass is best done on your own. Let it brew properly, “ripen up”, then our summer cold dish will turn out to be picky, playful, smelling delicious.

Well, or if you buy it in a store, then give preference natural product live fermentation without any unnecessary additives. Of course, it costs more, but it’s better to overpay the extra 30-40 rubles than to eat later who knows what.

And if you can buy more fresh eggs with a bright yolk, then it will be the best that can be cooked at all.

Well, let's start cooking.

The classic recipe for a delicious kvass okroshka

The number of ingredients is given for a full three-liter pan. This, of course, without kvass. I love it when this summer soup is almost worth a spoon. Therefore, this three-liter pan is enough for us no more than 6 servings.

Considering that, as a rule, no one is limited to one bowl, and everyone asks for supplements, then this will just be one time for three people.

If you love this cold soup not very thick, then reduce the amount of ingredients. If the okroshchnaya mass remains the next day, then it can be stored in the refrigerator. It won't affect the taste in any way.


We will need:

  • boiled sausage - 300 gr
  • potatoes - 4 - 6 pieces (depending on size)
  • egg - 5 pcs
  • fresh cucumber - 4 pieces (small)
  • radish - 250 - 300 gr
  • green onion - bunch
  • dill - 0.5 bunch
  • parsley - 0.5 bunch
  • grated horseradish - 2 tbsp. spoons
  • mustard - 2 tbsp. spoons
  • salt - to taste
  • sour cream - for serving
  • kvass - 1.5 - 2 liters

Cooking:

Any hostess knows that the number of ingredients is a very relative concept. So, cucumbers and potatoes can be both very small and extremely large.

Therefore, in this case, the “eye” is the most basic measure. Everything should be about the same. Okroshka is good because it has a lot of things. Therefore, we put "a lot" of everything.

1. Since we are preparing a dish today using sausage, we will start with it. Buy high quality boiled sausage.

Only from quality and delicious foods you will get a quality and tasty okroshka.

The statement that they say "what's the difference, what kind of sausage, cut it anyway" is, to put it mildly, an incorrect argument. The difference in price between a cheap boiled sausage and a good one is 100 rubles per kilogram. And for 300 gr only 30 rubles. But the difference in taste will be huge. Therefore, I advise you not to save on this.

Sausage is better to take without fat. The Ostankinskaya or Doctorskaya variety is well suited, preferably in a natural casing.


Cut it into small cubes.

Sometimes cooked with semi-smoked sausage and even fried. But I believe that this is already for gourmets. Plain boiled sausage perfect for our today's dish.

2. Cut the pre-cooked and cooled potatoes into medium-sized cubes. In order for it to be easily cut, it must be thoroughly cooled. Then the cubes will be even and will not stick to each other.


If possible, cut all the ingredients to the same size. So the dish will look more aesthetically pleasing. And I also believe that the taste of the dish as a whole depends on the cutting. Therefore, I cut everything carefully so that everything looks decent and beautiful at the cooking stage.

3. Boil eggs, cool in cold water and cut into cubes. To make this easier, use an egg cutter. AT this case the cubes will turn out a little smaller than the rest in the cut, but our cold soup will look more beautiful.


There is another way where the eggs are separated into whites and yolks. Proteins are cut into cubes and yolks are ground. Thus, we make the dish thicker and richer. It turns out especially beautifully when the yolks of the eggs are a rich yellow color.


That's exactly what I did.

But today is a different recipe. The eggs I use today have ordinary yolks, so I cut them with an egg cutter.

4. Rinse the radishes thoroughly, cut off the tails and on both sides and clean as needed. As mentioned above, it is better to purchase fresh, medium-sized radishes. Such a vegetable is juicy, strong, moderate bitter-sweet taste. Just the way you need it.


Overripe specimens are already too bitter, besides, they are often empty inside, and their skin is very tough and fibrous. It is better not to use such a radish in a dish.

5. The same goes for cucumbers. It is better to take them in medium or small size. Such fruits with a thin skin, seeds have not yet formed in them, they have a sweetish fresh taste and a wonderful smell.

Cucumbers cut into cubes of a standard size, as other components were also cut.


And here is one of my girlfriends, she cuts all the cucumbers, and rubs one on a grater for a better smell and thickness of the cold soup. But this is everyone's choice. Young cucumbers and so will give everything you need.

6. Also chop the greens, if necessary, cutting off the rough stems.


Put all the ingredients after cutting into a saucepan.

7. green onion cut as usual, transfer to a bowl and sprinkle with salt. Grind with a mortar until juice appears.

I know that sometimes some housewives skip this procedure, consider it useless and unnecessary. So I must tell you that it is still needed.

If you just chop the onion and pour it into the total mass, it will just float in the soup, and taste a little when we eat. The grated onion will release juice, and this juice will nourish literally every piece cut into a tiny mass. Needless to say, this will significantly improve the taste of the dish as a whole.


Even if you doubt it, try cooking at least once. Then you will always cook only this way, and nothing else.

8. But that's not all. Add mustard and horseradish to the onion, and grind it all together. Add a spoon or two, adjust yourself. But I will say right away, even adding two tablespoons of both, you will not feel this in the dish. It won't be sharp.


But what a divine taste it will give to our cold soup! You can't even imagine.

In general, in the preparation of this tasty okroshka there are no extra steps. Everything is necessary and important! Sometimes they say - “What’s the matter, I crumbled everything, but poured it with kvass ...” I won’t argue, it will also be the same soup, but try to do it once according to the rules, as it was cooked from time immemorial, then you will feel the difference.

It is not for nothing that it has a name - classic! So, there are certain requirements for its preparation, there are also certain rules for preparation.

9. Now add the pounded mass to the general cut. Salt to taste and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes to chill the mass.


10. Now, as for kvass. In the old days, white not prepared specially for the dish. sweet kvass, it was prepared from wheat raw materials.

Or you can cook homemade bread kvass, for which there are a lot of recipes now.

And as an alternative, you can use purchased kvass, which I used today. This kvass brand "Nikola". All ingredients for its preparation are used only natural, without any preservatives, sweeteners, stabilizers and dyes. This is kvass of live fermentation, which uses raw rye and sugar.

Usually in such a drink, the fermentation process occurs due to lactic acid bacteria, and it is classified as a drink. double fermentation. That is, as a high-class drink. It may cost more than its counterparts, but the result is worth it.

In general, Nikola kvass is quite suitable for today's dish. Moreover, there is a special, not very sweet kvass for cold summer soup. Although there are other worthy varieties, the main thing when choosing is to carefully read their composition.

And of course, any of them should be cooled in advance in the refrigerator.

11. Well, now that everything is chopped and cooled, it's time to set the table. Be sure to put mustard and horseradish on the table. Although we put all this into the total mass, but someone might want to add. Also, do not forget to put sour cream, it will need to be put on everyone's plate for sure.

Of course you need bread fresh herbs. Well, you can put it on the table fresh garlic. A bite with brown bread, it will be very tasty!

12. Arrange the salad mass on plates. Do not regret, put more. And pour it with cold kvass, be sure to flavor it with sour cream. Serve immediately and enjoy!


The taste of such okroshka is simply fabulous. It is impossible to describe it in words. All ingredients are connected by a common taste, nothing stands out, everything is balanced and harmonious. When you eat, you experience real pleasure.

You savor every spoonful, and you want to prolong this pleasure. Therefore, you eat slowly, stretching the time allotted for a meal.

Boiled meat is often replaced with sausage or ham; there are recipes where dried or salted dried fish is used instead of meat. Sometimes beets, carrots, turnips or turnips are added to okroshka. All this abundance of vegetables is usually generously flavored with herbs and aromatic spices. Meat for okroshka can be pre-boiled or fried.

Ideally, okroshka should stand for half an hour before pouring kvass over it. Ready meal served with mustard, garlic, boiled eggs and rye bread.
