Directions
This chilled meat and vegetable soup is a popular Russian dish.
It's served with ice cubes in it.
Since there's no substitute for Russian Kvass, a fermented and slightly alcoholic liquid made from grain, the ingredients in this recipe will have to do.
You may substitute 3 cup beef stock and 1 cup white wine for the apple cider.
Dice meat.
Peel and dice cucumber and eggs. Slice green onions.
Combine first 4 ingredients.
Mix together sugar, mustard, sour cream, and cider, and beat well.
Add beef mixture and chill. Serve sprinkled with dill.
Sylvia's notes: I used apple juice and leftover corned beef, and it was wonderful.
Absolutely addictive.
