Description

A hearty first course. You can prepare the broth in advance—I find it convenient to use a multicooker for this. You can use beef or lean pork, as well as chicken. By the way, you may skip adding meat to the solyanka and just use ham or sausage instead. I hope this idea will come in handy. Serve with fresh herbs and sour cream.
