Cooking tips

Potatoes should be cut in advance and washed before and after cooking, so they do not stick together, cook quickly, and cool quickly.

You can use homemade mayonnaise to dress okroshka.

Instead of Dijon mustard, you can use 1 level teaspoon of Russian mustard.

Kvass should not be too sweet or too sour.

Okroshka is best served chilled.
