Famous Russian Soup Recipes

Russian soups are very popular and they are usually served in the afternoon. Borscht is very famous and this is a beet soup. Mixed meat soup and vegetable soup are also well loved and these soups are often topped with a dollop of sour cream.

Meat, potatoes, and cabbage are amongst the most common ingredients in Russian soup recipes. Fish is also used. Chicken soup recipes are popular in Russia and "kuryniy soup" is a delicious Russian chicken soup, which is served with rye bread. This chicken soup recipe is made with vegetable broth and contains chicken meat as well as vegetables and fresh herbs.

Mushroom soup is also a Russian favorite and this is made with fresh mushrooms. The water in which the mushrooms are cooked is changed several times during the cooking process. There is a tasty chilled soup called "okroshka" which is great when the weather is hot. It is garnished with dill and sour cream and is usually made from sausages or some type of meat.

Borscht - The Most Famous Russian Soup

Borscht is perhaps the most famous soup from the Soviet Union and it is bright red in color. It contains beets, potatoes, onion, garlic, cabbage, carrots, dill and more. This soup might not soup particularly appetizing but it has an incredible flavor. Like most Russian soups, it is traditionally adorned with a dollop of sour cream before serving.

Recipe for Mixed Meat Soup

This Russian soup recipe makes two quarts of soup. Beef, kidney, ham, and hot dogs are used for the meat content and onions, olives, tomatoes, capers and more are added for texture and flavor. Serve this soup with a dollop of sour cream, in the typical Russian style.

If you want to substitute any of the meats, that is fine. Perhaps you are a fan of chicken soup recipes, in which case you can use chicken instead of the hot dogs or kidney.

Like a lot of other Russian soup recipes, this one is best when you make it a day in advance, chill it overnight in the refrigerator and then warm it up and serve it the following day, because this lets the flavors combine better and the soup will have a superior taste.

You will need:


2 1/2 lbs beef chuck on the bone
2 tablespoons butter
1/4 lbs hotdogs, in 1/4 inch slices
1 veal kidney
1 tablespoon capers
2 chopped onions
1/4 lb ham, in 1/2 inch cubes
6 cups water
4 oz pickled mushrooms
6 tablespoons flour
2 bay leaves
2 julienned dill pickles
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 cup chopped, pitted black olives
2 peeled, chopped fresh tomatoes
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1/2 sliced lemon

How to make it:

Boil the beef chuck in the water for an hour and a half to make a juicy, rich broth. Remove and discard the beef bones. Slice the kidney and dredge it in the flour. Saute it in the butter with the onions. Stir the hot dogs, ham, onions, and kidney into the beef broth. Cook for twenty minutes, then add the other ingredients and cook for fifteen minutes more. Serve hot.
