Cold beetroot soup with tops - a classic step-by-step recipe with photos of preparation in Belarusian. Soup with beet tops

Beetroot with tops can be created in late spring or summer, when early beets with juicy, appetizing tops are already available. Such cold soup It will not only be refreshing, but also healthy, it can be created in literally half an hour, but it is advisable to cool the beetroot broth with lemon in the refrigerator or add ice to it.

Since it is not customary to add to beetroot soup meat products, then you can add satiety to the dish if you add several boiled chicken eggs to it. Beetroot soup is best served with sour cream in a sauceboat - everyone will add as much sour cream to the plate as they want, or they will eat the dish without adding it. Don’t forget about fresh herbs, which spring and summer are so rich in: fresh dill, parsley, green onions, etc.

So get ready necessary ingredients and let's start cooking! Boil potatoes in their skins (about 20-25 minutes) and chicken eggs (about 12-15 minutes) in advance, then sharply cool these products in ice water.

Peel the beets, rinse in water and cut into quarters - this will cook the vegetable faster and the broth will acquire a beautiful burgundy color. Boil the beets for about 20 minutes. You can add a little granulated sugar to the water.

Remove the beet pieces, but do not pour out the broth. Squeeze lemon juice into it lemon wedges, leaving a few of them for decoration. Stir the broth and place it in the cold.

Rinse the cut beet tops thoroughly, pour boiling water over them and leave for 10 minutes.

Then remove and cut, move the cut into a deep container: a bowl or pan.

Rinse fresh cucumbers, cut off the tails from them and grate them on a fine grater into a container. Wash the green onions and dill, chop and add the chopped pieces to a bowl.

Peel the potatoes and chicken eggs, rinse and grate together with the beet slices on a fine grater into a container.

Season with salt and pour in the cooled beetroot broth. Mix everything carefully and refrigerate for about 30 minutes.

Then pour the prepared cold beetroot soup with tops into deep plates or bowls, garnish with lemon slices. In hot weather, you can even add a couple of ice cubes to each plate.

Have a nice day!

Decoction percenteat, add salt (you can add a tablespoon of sugar, but usually beet broth already has a certain sweetnessIt’s better to do without sugar..), cool and place in the refrigerator for further cooling.
