Barszcz:
2 quarts stock
2 cups sour
cream
2 or 3 tbsps
freshly grated
horseradish or prepared horseradish
2 or 3 tbsps
vinegar
Salt to taste
Heat stock.
Beat cream until
smooth. Add a little hot stock to cream, stirring constantly. Add cream
to broth, add horseradish and vinegar. Stir. Season to taste. Sourness
depends on individual taste. Originally, zur, the sour liquid from
fermented
rye bread was used. This can be obtained prepared and bottled. However,
it is more convenient to use 1 or 2 tbsps of lemon juice or vinegar.
Another
method to make barszcz sour is to use citric acid (sour salt) or juice
from dill pickles.
