Selection and preparation of ingredients
Any culinary preparation begins with the selection of all the ingredients indicated in the recipe. Then they need to be processed correctly.
Here are some tips for choosing and preparing foods for cooking fried butter in sour cream:
- Mushrooms should be young, not wormy, preferably collected in ecologically clean places.
- A slippery and sticky oil hat promotes adhesion of leaves, needles and grass. But if you wash them before cleaning, they become even more slippery, and it will be difficult to hold mushrooms, especially small ones, in your hands. Therefore, you should start cleaning the oil in a dry state, and rinse later.
- First you need to remove the top brown film on the hat with a knife from dry mushrooms, which can add some bitterness to the finished dish. Often, forest debris is removed along with this film.
- Cut off the dirty end from the legs and scrape off a thin layer. Sometimes under the hat or on the leg of the oiler there is a film protecting the spores, which also needs to be cleaned. Mushrooms processed in this way become white and clean.
- Lubricate the butter in a deep bowl and rinse several times under running cold water to remove any remaining debris and soil. Then drain and discard in a colander.
- Cleaning and waste can be thrown under the trees in the garden - under favorable conditions, it may be possible to plant mushrooms directly near the house.
- Onions are easier to cut into small pieces, if you do not cut the bottom of the bulb - so it will not fall apart when chopping.
- In order not to pinch your eyes when slicing onions, the bulb should be kept in cold water for 2-3 minutes.
- As spicy greens, you can use dill, parsley, marjoram, thyme, rosemary, oregano, Provencal herbs, green onions, based on your preferences.
- Instead of store sour cream, you can use homemade. The calorie content of the stew increases, but the taste becomes richer and softer.
Important! To prevent your hands from getting dark when cleaning the oil, it is advisable to carry out the procedure in medical gloves.
