You can also include either or all: shredded cooked chicken, ham, bologna, boiled potatoes, mustard, vinegar. Grate or chop everything, mix and chill. Thank you for watching ♥

      I am not sure... he refuses to eat now... He is a strong man, he lived such an incredible life. He is 96. He went through world war II, and went through so much, you have no idea! My father once interviewed him for a radio program here in Canada. I couldn't believe what he went through. But sadly, now, he remembers nothing and is in a wheelchair...

    I believe that this soup was created out of necessity. Think about when and where too. The area was poor and needed to make something substantial to fill their bellies So they used what they had. ( or didn’t have like heat). Necessity is the mother of invention!!

    • @SassyMashaVlogs
      @SassyMashaVlogs  Před 5 lety +200

      Elle Groover, absolutely agree with you. I have noticed many traditional dishes are just a bunch of seasonal ingredients from local areas mixed together. 😊 Our grandma's are the real pioneers and chefs!

    • @rsoubiea

      @frogradar Před 5 lety +14

      Like ratatoullie and basically the majority of soups. My mother calls turnip soup "peasant" soup because it's just common found veg at the time like turnips, potatoes and salt.

    • @nilouyarm4501
      @nilouyarm4501 Před 5 lety +9

      this is excellent for the summer. It reduces the heat of the body and all the ingredients are refreshing and light and that's what is needed in hot summers, not heavy, oily etc. In other words, it reduces Pitta, the fire element. So try it in the hot summer days and enjoy it.

    • @elunaa.7011
      @elunaa.7011 Před 5 lety +12

      steeoked I get that, I guess it's just that I've seen in her past videos how she can get so emotionally down and lonely and she's so sensitive. I just wonder and hope she's ok during long stretches of silence. I know she posts ASMR vids more frequently but those are her work, and say nothing about how her heart is. Sometimes I even feel like when I watch her ASMR vids I can tell how she is because I see joy or sadness in her eyes. For example, in her metal elements video she seems sad, but in her We Shell Relax video she seems genuinely happy. Wow I am really over thinking this....dear brain, please shut up.

    • @steeoked
      @steeoked Před 5 lety +6

      Eluna A. Thats sweet! I bet she really appriciates such caring fans ❤ i guess what im trying to say is that, just bc she doesnt upload alot of content here, doesnt mean she is sad or having a hard time. She might just b doing other things. But i also understand that you get worried bc this is basically all the connection we have with her and its natural to become worried when that connection is changed. I guess im a little less over thinking... But then again, the world needs both kinds! :)

    • @elunaa.7011
      @elunaa.7011 Před 5 lety +14

      steeoked Yep. I agree. It's funny because she has no idea who I am but I feel so intimately connected to her. I've fallen asleep with her for so many nights, and she helped me through a rough divorce. I guess I consider her a friend.

      Zofia Anna there is a Russian soup called holodniy borsht (cold borsht), and it is exactly what you describe it to be. Very similar ingredients to this--the egg, the cucumber, radish, and dill, as well as a pink broth due to the beets. And of course--a dollop of sour cream on top.

    What a coincidence i just saw a recipe for Okroshka i a german magazin. i was very suprised but excited to see such a typical but rather unknown russian recipe. usually everybody just knows about pelmeni or borsh.

    Oh man, i love your cooking videos... your own recipes, ASMR or otherwise. It's especially interesting when you make Russian food, you got me hooked on dressed herring! Thank you!
