Mushroom soup with buckwheat
4 servings
45 minutes
The main secret of this simple soup is to cook it in season and use good wild mushrooms. You can add birch or aspen mushrooms to the broth - they will give a rich flavor, but be sure to add at least one boletus, just for the flavor. Otherwise, simple home cooking should be so laconic: carrots fried with onions, buckwheat and dill. And no garlic and, God forbid, mustard or horseradish - the natural subtle mushroom spirit is good on its own, it is better to leave it without any extraneous ingredients . Recipe from Rusiko Shamatava, chef of the Dzhondzholi restaurants.
