How to cook sorrel bone soup recipe. How to quickly and tasty cook sorrel soup

25.11.2023 Restaurant notes

Sorrel soup is a delicious vitamin-rich first course that begins to be prepared with the appearance of spring greens. It nourishes and refreshes in the summer heat, replenishes vitamin reserves and helps diversify our diet. It is also supplemented with nettle leaves, spinach and other herbs. Of course, you can cook it from canned or frozen sorrel in winter. But you must agree that the taste of fresh young vegetation is much brighter, healthier and tastier.

Sorrel soup includes green borscht and cabbage soup. But the range of green soups is much richer. In addition to vegetables, completely different cereals are added to it. For example, rice, which works well with herbs and a boiled egg.

To prepare this dish, you can use both forest (wild) sorrel and garden sorrel. But homemade is still better, it is more tender, softer and not so sour. Choose small, young leaves. Large and mature leaves (mid-summer) become tough, dense and fibrous, and can spoil the impression of the dish. It is better to cook the collected sorrel immediately, because... it quickly begins to deteriorate.

In the last article we shared. Today we will look at several recipes for sorrel soup: rich with pork, lighter with chicken, and completely without meat in vegetable broth, with or without frying, with the addition of nettles, spinach and rice. Everyone will be able to choose for themselves what they like best and prepare their own amazingly delicious spring dish!

Soup, cabbage soup, borscht - this dish with sorrel is called differently. But this does not make it any less tasty and healthy. This rich pork ribs dish can satisfy the whole family! I immediately have a pleasant memory of my childhood in the village and my beloved grandmother, who prepared it this way! What associations do you have?

If you want to speed up the process of making soup, then use chicken instead of pork.

2. Peel and wash the vegetables. Chop the onion and carrots into very small cubes. Fry in a frying pan in vegetable oil.


Place chopped potatoes, fried potatoes, and rice into a saucepan with broth and cook until tender (20 minutes).


3. Boil the eggs and cool them.

4. We free the greens from unnecessary parts: spinach and sorrel from the stems (we don’t throw them away, they may still be useful to us), green onions from the roots. Soak with water for 5-7 minutes to completely remove dirt. We wash it several times.

We put everything together and chop it into very thin strips.


5. Take the cooked meat out of the pan, cut it into medium cubes and return it back to the soup.


6. Add greens, mix and taste.


If the dish lacks sourness, take the remaining stalks of spinach and sorrel, squeeze out a little lemon juice, add a spoonful of broth and blend everything together with a blender. Pour the resulting mixture into a saucepan, passing through a sieve.


Let it sit for a couple of minutes and it's ready.

7. Pour some soup into a plate. Three whole boiled peeled eggs on a fine grater. Add a teaspoon of sour cream.

Recipe for light sorrel soup with eggs

This soup is full of greens that smell like spring! Let's cook it without meat in vegetable broth with celery, which is one of the best seasonings for broths. Let's use a great combination of fresh herbs with rice and eggs.

This soup is great not only hot, but also cold. What could be more pleasant after a hot spring or summer working day?!


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wq9-f5fWgm4

To prepare we will need:

  • Sorrel – 2 bunches
  • Spinach – 1 bunch
  • Green onions, parsley - a bunch each
  • Eggs – 5 pcs.
  • Rice – 4 tbsp.
  • Vegetable broth – 4 l.
  • Juice of half a lemon
  • Sour cream – 1 tbsp.

For the vegetable broth:

  • Onions – 1 pc.
  • Celery – 1 stalk
  • Salt – 1 tsp.

1. Boil eggs hard.

Add a little salt to the water so that the eggs do not crack during the cooking process and the shells can be removed better.

2. Make vegetable broth. To do this, place a stalk of celery in boiling salted water. Grind the onion into a pulp on a grater. But it’s better to do this in a special device or on a blender.


Place it in a saucepan with celery.

3. Peel the potatoes, cut into cubes and add to the broth. After boiling, add rice. Cook for another 15-20 minutes.

4. Finely chop the washed greens: spinach, sorrel, green onions and parsley.


Don't forget that the taste of a dish largely depends on the quality of the ingredients. Therefore, we choose only fresh greens.

5. When the potatoes are cooked, remove the celery from the pan, which has already done its job. Add green mixture to the soup. We wait until it boils and remove from heat.

6. Peel the eggs, grate them on a coarse grater and add them to the pan.


Taste the soup and add more salt if necessary.

7. Squeeze the juice of half a lemon.


Mix well.

To prevent lemon seeds from getting into the soup, squeeze the juice into a cup or ladle, and then pour it into the pan so that the seeds remain in it.

The soup is completely ready. All that remains is to decorate with a sprig of parsley, add a spoonful of sour cream and enjoy.

Later, a lot of oxalic acid accumulates in them. In small quantities it is harmless and is quite easily eliminated from the body. But high doses can provoke the formation of kidney stones and joint problems. So spring and early summer is the time when you need to take advantage of the moment, because this plant contains a lot of useful vitamins and minerals that we so need after a long winter.

A nice bonus from this early green is that it has low calorie content (21–22 kcal per 100 g), and the acids that it contains are able to break down fats and remove them from the body.

I don't think it's worth wasting time. Choose a recipe, run to the garden or to the market for greens and get not only the benefits, but also the pleasure of a delicious spring dish. will be a great addition to it.

How long to cook sorrel in soup

Before you start choosing recipes, pay attention to some tips that are important to know to make sorrel soup tasty and healthy:

  • Use young leaves for cooking. As they grow, they not only accumulate oxalic acid, but also become tough and fibrous.
  • For soup, you need to cut them crosswise, not lengthwise, then they will be soft.
  • Any acid prevents the potatoes from becoming soft, so sorrel should be added only when the potatoes are completely cooked.
  • The leaves are considered ready the moment they change color; if you want to boil the soup a little more, do it for no more than 5 minutes. This way you will preserve the taste of sorrel and maximize its beneficial qualities.

Traditionally, this dish is prepared using chicken broth and adding an egg. And you season it exclusively with sour cream. But besides this, there are many other variations that you will learn about right now.

Let's start with the simplest preparation. Stock up on everything you need, it is advisable to take young sorrel leaves. These are the ones that make the most delicious stew. But be careful, because this plant contains quite a large amount of acid, which can cause urolithiasis and gastritis.

Therefore, if you have indications for such ailments, then it is better to refuse or add such greens in limited quantities. And everyone else has nothing to fear.

Now, as for the main favorite, take it in any form, it can be fresh leaves, frozen or even canned.

But in the classic version, the meat is taken mainly from chicken and the result is a rich broth, which is already very tasty in itself.

We will need:

  • Drinking water - 3.5 -4 l
  • Fresh sorrel – 240 g
  • Chicken (or its parts, breast, legs) - 380 g
  • Rice - 160 g
  • Potatoes - 4-5 pcs.
  • Onion - 1 head
  • Chicken egg - 2 pcs.
  • Green onions – 100 g
  • Greens - a bunch
  • Salt - 2 tsp
  • Spices - 2 tsp


Stages:

1. Prepare chicken broth the day before. Do not forget to remove the foam from the surface so that it turns out transparent, like glass. Next, cool it and chop the meat into small pieces with a sharp knife.


2. Carefully remove all specks and debris from the leaves. Rinse them under running water. If you notice any rot, discard them; they are not suitable for food.


3. It is advisable to then let the feathers dry, shake them in a colander or wipe them with paper napkins. Then chop it into strip-like pieces.


4. Now, with the potatoes, first do the peeling procedure, and then, like any soup, chop them into cubes.


5. Chop the onion head into small pieces. Many housewives prefer to fry the onion in a frying pan with vegetable oil, and only then use it. I do not recommend doing this if you are preparing an exceptionally healthy dish. But sometimes you can resort to this method.


6. Now follow these instructions and add the potatoes and onions to the broth.

Place it in cold liquid; this action will help ensure that the soup is clear.


7. The next step is washed and sorted rice. Cook for about 40 minutes until the potato pieces are soft, maybe 20 minutes is enough for you, depending on the type of potato. Either way, cook over medium heat and stir.


8. Next, add the sorrel. And just before turning it off, add salt, add spices and pepper, if desired.

Do you want to make this creation unforgettable? Then break one chicken egg into a mug and beat with a fork, and then at the very end of cooking, pour this mixture in a stream, stirring all the liquid in the pan.


9. Don’t forget about green onions, chopped finely and neatly. Keep the sorrel as a guide; if it has darkened, then you can turn off the stove, it usually does not cook for long, 3-5 minutes after boiling will be enough.

You don’t have to cook at all, but turn it off immediately after boiling to preserve all the vitamins.


10. After all, so to speak, in conclusion, it is recommended to cover the pan with a lid and hold such a delicacy on a hot stove to stand and simmer.

Boil and peel the chicken eggs; they should be hard-boiled, not soft-boiled. Chop in any way, finely or coarsely.

Interesting! Eggs can be presented here in different ways, cut into quarters, halves, and even chopped into small cubes. Experiment, because this is what makes this potion look cool!


11. And such a lovely plate with sorrel soup and chicken is waiting for everyone for lunch. Place a spoonful of sour cream in each dish and garnish with dill or parsley. Eat for your health!
