Buchler is a popular Buryat dish. It is prepared in different ways, there are recipes without adding potatoes, but I have potatoes added to the soup. For me, it turns out much tastier. Neither sour cream nor mayonnaise is added to the soup, but you can add it if desired. And also put pepper or adjika - to enhance the taste.

For cooking, it is better to use filtered or bottled water that is neutral to taste. If you use tap water, keep in mind that it can give the dish an unpleasant characteristic taste.

So that the mucous membrane of the eyes is not irritated when slicing onions, rinse the onion and knife with cold water. The cutting board will not absorb the unpleasant onion smell if you rub it with a piece of lemon before slicing.

Root vegetables are best washed with a brush or a hard sponge under running water.
