  • Let's start making the sour shchi — a recipe I found in my grandmother's old cookbook. You can cut the meat into pieces and set it to cook for about an hour and a half. You can also boil the beef in one whole piece and cut it afterward, but I always cut the meat raw — it cuts down the cooking time. Cut the potatoes into cubes and add them to the broth. Let them cook for five to seven minutes. Now add the sauerkraut and cook for another ten minutes. Grate the carrots on the coarse side of a grater and dice the onion. Sauté the onion in vegetable oil, then add the carrots. Stir the sautéed vegetables into the soup. Right away, drop in the bay leaf, grated parsley root, parsnip, and ground black pepper. Add salt if needed. Keep cooking the soup until the potatoes are completely tender.
