Ukha and fish borscht from a tin can: soups not deservedly forgotten

Admin

Recently we recalled that in the 80s and 90s, our mother cooked fish soups once a week. It was lucky if the fish was caught by hand. And if not, then our soup was made from canned sprat in tomato sauce or saury in oil.

Ukha and fish borscht from a can: not deservedly forgotten soups - recipes of thrifty Soviet mothers

Why did you forget these recipes? Tasty and relatively inexpensive. But the main thing is fast!

Someone will say that canned food is not a budget pleasure now. Yes, there is. And for the soup you don't need to buy a jar for 80-150 rubles. A sprat from the Traffic Light or a bullhead from Fix-price will also do.

And one more thing, who did not prepare such a soup for you advice: this first one cannot be stored and reheated. Cooked and ate immediately!

Soup with canned fish in oil

Ingredients:

1 jar of fish in oil (saury, sardine, mackerel, etc.)
3 pcs. potatoes
carrot
onion
0.5 cups rice
Bay leaf
black peppercorns
salt
vegetable oil
greens

How to cook:

1. Boil 1.5-2.5 liters of water. Peel and dice the potatoes and put them in boiling water.

2. Rinse the rice and put it in a saucepan.

3. Chop the carrots and onions, sauté in vegetable oil and put them in the soup too.

4. At this point, the potatoes and rice are almost ready. It means fish time. Just open the jar and put all the contents in the soup.

5. Season with salt to taste, toss in the peppercorns and bay leaf.

6. The soup is ready when the rice and potatoes are done. Serve with herbs.

Soup with canned fish in butter, creamy (with curds)

In principle, this is the same soup as above, only with some nuances.

How to cook:

  1. Carrots do not need to be grated or fried - they are cut into slices, slices or even flowers. Cooked with potatoes and isom. The latter should be taken slightly less than in the main recipe.
  2. Replace onions with green onions and simmer them a little in vegetable oil.
  3. In boiling broth, already with potatoes and rice, dissolve 1-2 melted cheese curds grated on a grater, such as "Friendship", "For soup", "Onion".

Soup with canned fish in tomato

Again, this soup differs from the very first in our selection only in the choice of a can of fish. Here she is in tomato sauce. It can be both sprat in tomato sauce and gobies, mackerel, sardine in tomato sauce or even fish balls.

You can diversify the soup with half rings of sweet red pepper, beans instead of rice or barley, dill or celery.

By the way, if you use canned fish instead of meat, you can get very original first courses.

Pickle with sprat in tomato and pearl barley

For example, pickle with sprat in tomato. Have you tried it? And the hodgepodge?

Our mother even cooked borsch with that sprat. Which was unusual and strange, even in the hungry nineties. But although we were picky, we ate everything with gusto.

Now sometimes I remember such soups with some kind of warmth and I cook it for my family as a memory, and it's delicious, what is already here.
