Polish rassolnik ogurkova zupa
8 servings
120 minutes
Polish rassolnik differs from the usual one in its dressing - when the soup is almost ready, you need to mix sour cream and flour, pour in the broth, stir and add to the pan. It is best to take salted barrel cucumbers - they will give the soup the necessary sourness.
