Description

The word 'solyanka' is as pleasing to the Russian ear as it is ambiguous. Some people make mixed solyanka with mushrooms, others with olives, some with capers, and some with pickles; there are even those who completely deny the use of cabbage in the recipe. One thing is for sure: you cannot make meat solyanka without meat. The more varieties or types of meat you gather in this incredibly hearty soup, the tastier it will be. Here, it’s not so much about knowing the measure, but about creating harmony: this recipe involves six different types of meat, ranging from beef to smoked sausages, all of which complement each other beautifully.
