What to cook with sorrel? The very first thing that immediately comes to mind is borsch with sorrel, eggs and sour cream. Yes, this is an undeniably tasty dish, but not the only one where sorrel plays a major role. Vegetable light salads are no less tasty and healthy with it. The main thing is to know when to stop using it. Fresh sorrel is much healthier than in the first hot dish. Useful substances are not digested, evaporated and volatilized from it. And most importantly, sorrel is the record holder for the content of a large amount of vitamin C, which is so lacking in spring, and it is preserved in full in fresh salad. Therefore, the use of such a salad is a real salvation of the body from vitamin deficiency.
Now is the time when the first fresh vegetables and greens are asking for the tongue. And there is nothing better than eating a plate of nutritious salad with the savory sourness of "meadow apple", as sometimes called leaf sorrel, in the evening. There are many options for making salads with this herb, there are more than enough possibilities. Additional foods depend on the tastes of those for whom the dish is intended. Today I propose to cook a salad of sorrel, cabbage, cucumbers and radishes.
