      You could halve the onion and let it soak in some water for a few minutes..It does reduce the tearing effect to some extent.

      Peel & slice in half then rinse your onion halves with cold running water then cut to desired lengths. Great video Natasha 😉

    Ms. Natasha
    Your recipe is a very elegant way to serve one of the most delicious soups. It use to be my mother's too.
    To those that are asking about cabbage and meet or something else, or addressing your recipe with criticism; please, be kind, show some civism and education, especially, respect for another woman in this planet.
    Be grateful that you are just a few that God himself has given the privilege of having this wonderful Borsch Soup. Millions of people in the world have to look for food in the trash can, and they treasure their findings.
    Dear Natasha Madam, May the sun shine warm upon your face; the rains fall soft upon your fields and until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of His hand. "May the wind be always at your back."

    I love this. I put grated beets, carrots and one cabbage, one sweet onion and grated apple. And celery. I season with salt and apple cider vinegar and black pepper powder, and when the soup is almost ready I add some finely sliced pickled cucumber. This is quite typical way of doing this legendary Russian soup in Finland❤️. And sour cream, never majo😄

I used parsley to garnish, as didn’t have the dill. We will have leftovers so tomorrow or next day we’ll have it again and I’ll try a dollop of mayo then. Thanks, Natasha for this wonderful recipe! 😊

    To chop onions without crying, you can freeze them for a few minutes beforehand. I don’t particularly like this method, but if it doesn’t bother you, it works.
    Keep you knife VERY SHARP. Give your knife a few passes on a sharpening steel before cutting an onion. If your knife needs a real sharpening (the steel doesn’t exactly sharpen a blade, it just smooths it), then keep some sharpening stones in the kitchen. A dull knife will crush the onion’s cells and explode them, sending the toxic aroma everywhere, including into your eyes. A sharp knife will slice through them and make less of a problem.
    Other than that, here’s how to cut onions without crying:
    Leave the root on. If you cut the root off, the onion bleeds rapidly and irritates your eyes. This is why so many people have a hard time cutting onions. They think “I’m not going to eat the root, so I’ll just cut it off” and then the onion punishes the poor victim with a ruthless assault on the eyes having no consideration for their ignorance.
    Cut the onion straight in half and put the cut side of each half down right away.
    Rinse the cut-exposed onion under cold water for a few seconds and give it a sort of scrubbing with your thumbs. It should start to lose a little slippery-ness.
    Pull the skin off of the onion and cut off the onion’s spiky hairdo. Don’t do this before or it’s a pain sometimes.
    On the sides of the onion, still placed cut side down, cut strips to your desired fineness completely through and move in towards the center where the root is still intact. Stop once you reach the root and repeat this on the other side.
    Press those two sides together and give them one cut all the way through with the flat of the knife level to the board. Chop it perpendicular to your desired fineness.
    When cutting the center of the onion, cut strips across the onion to the desired fineness. Get as close to the root as you can without slicing through it. It can be seen distinctly from the onion itself where the root ends and the onion begins. Then chop it perpendicular to desired fineness. Continue until you reach the root still being careful not to cut it.
    Discard the root and look tear-free at your beautifully chopped onions.
    Here’s even a third method if you’re feeling adventurous. You can cut the root off right away, you just need to cut it out on a cone shape. Stab your knife into the onion a few millimeters from the root. Try to angle the knife almost like you’re trying to stab through to its hairdo. Then twist the onion around the knife cutting the root out on a cone. If you removed the whole thing in one piece, it won’t irritate your eyes as much. If you stabbed the root, it will. This method is a bit difficult to do properly because as said earlier, you can see the root when the onion is cut in half, but with this method you’re working completely blind. Then just cut as described above.

    No tearing with onions, try a sharp knife. I always sharpen my knives before chopping onions. It works every time. Tearing is caused when you smash the onion.

    • @Polina-lw2xw
      @Polina-lw2xw 3 роки тому +1

      tearing is caused when you look at the onion for a long time which is what you do while you chop it. If you don't then you might get your fingers or even your hand

    This looks absolutely delicious. When I saw you were adding potatoes, I knew it was going to be authentic. Don't 'hate' me, but since I only cook for one, would sub canned beets for fresh. I know, I know. Have you ever made it with bacon and caraway seeds? And...how did you NOT get any beet juice spots on your blouse? LOL Thanks for another wonderful recipe, Natasha. (:

    There's no "t" at the end of "borsch" lol. Other than that, looks delicious. You can also use the stems and leaves off of the beets to add to the flavor. Also instead of grating/mincing the beets you can just dice them. And instead of ketchup, I would just de-seed the tomatoes and dice them. It'll taste much better with fresh tomatoes as well as fresh carrots (instead of bell peppers and beans). Sautéed for 15 min or after the onions are caramelized. As for the seasoning I just use fresh dill weed, Italian parsley, bay leaves (put in 15 min before it's done), peppercorns, and salt to taste. Glad to see that sourcream at the end!

Мне нравится Ваш позитив и Вы готовите с любовью. Хочу поделиться с Вами простыми и тем не менее вкусными салатами. Куриную печень 250 грамм обжарить на подсолнечном масле, затем переложить ее в салатницу, добавить 150 грамм вареной фасоли, , маринованный лук ( одну луковицу нарезать полукольцами и замариновать в течении нескольких часов в кипятке с уксусом и сахаром ) добавить малосольный огурец и все это заправить майонезом ( посолить, поперчить по вкусу ). Вот другой салат. Берем один большой баклажан и нарезаем его соломкой, затем обжариваем в подсолнечном масле, четыре вареных яйца так же нарезаем соломкой, добавляем маринованный лук, соль и заправляем майонезом. По желанию можно добавить еще грибы и зелень. Извините, что поделилась с Вами рецептами. Большой привет Вашей маме, у нее замечательная дочь ! С любовью Людмила
