Mushroom Stew - Tips and Tricks
• Stew - this is not a vegetable puree, and so Bole is not a hodgepodge. Digestion of vegetables is not allowed, the pieces should look good. To do this, you must clearly follow the recipe and never lay all the ingredients at the same time.
• If mushrooms are gathered in the forest, pre-boiling is required. In the old days, to determine the toxicity, an onion head was added to the pot. It was believed that if it turned dark or turned blue, a bad mushroom was caught. If the bulb remains transparent and natural color, then the product can be eaten.
• The acid contained in tomatoes inhibits the preparation of stews. If there is no time and you need to get the dish faster, then it is better to lay the tomatoes at the very end. The same goes for pasta or tomato juice.
• The stew will be more fragrant if you add a few peas of pepper and a clove asterisk when stewing in a cauldron. Only when serving, these spices should be removed.
• You can stew vegetable stew not only with tomato, but also with sour cream or cream. Mushrooms with dairy products are perfectly combined and become only tastier.
