Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 c Meat, cooked
1 Cucumber
2 Eggs, hard-boiled
3 Onions, green
1 t Sugar
2 ts Dijon mustard
1/2 c Sour cream
4 c Apple cider

This chilled meat and vegetable soup is a popular
Russian dish. It's served with ice cubes in it. Since
there's no substitute for Russian Kvass, a fermented
and slightly alcoholic liquid made from grain, the
ingredients in this recipe will have to do.

You may substitute 3 c beef stock and 1 c white wine
for the apple cider.

Dice meat. Peel and dice cucumber and eggs. Slice
green onions. Combine first 4 ingredients. Mix
together sugar, mustard, sour cream, and cider, and
beat well. Add beef mixture and chill. Serve sprinkled
with dill.

Sylvia's notes: I used apple juice and leftover corned
beef, and it was wonderful. Absolutely addictive.
