Fish soup over a campfire
1
Our Ukrainian cuisine is a real treasure trove with a wealth of flavors and aromas. Fish dishes that reflect traditional Ukrainian cooking methods are especially popular. One such dish is ukha, which is cooked over a fire. Its special magic lies in its smoky aroma and rich taste.
In the past, ukha was an integral part of the diet of Ukrainian fishermen and loggers who spent a lot of time outdoors. Each region of Ukraine has its own version of cooking this dish, combining simple ingredients with sophisticated traditional technologies.
Variations of ukha
Everyone can add their own personal touch to ukha. It can be an exclusively fish base or, for example, with the addition of potatoes or vegetables for more volume.
Secrets of tenderness and taste
The most important thing is to choose and cook the fish correctly. For a delicate taste, you should choose fish with a lower bone content and cook it over low heat.
Ingredients tips
Use fresh fish, preferably several types, to maximize the flavor palette. It is recommended to add parsley and dill for flavor.
Small culinary nuances
To maintain the purity of the broth, make sure that the ukha does not boil too much. Use coarsely chopped vegetables that retain their shape during cooking.
