How Kissel Can Be Taken

By Rebekah Alford


Kissel is a type of soup that can either be taken through drinking or eating. The soup mostly taken as desert. It was first taken in Russia. There was famine in Russia and some people had starved to death. An old man in the city then came up with an idea of how to make food from the little grain that had remained and some fruit juice.

If it is made using less thickening starch it can be drunk. They made two wooden holes bowls and placed them in the ground. When the foreigners came, that was introduced to them. Thereafter the foreigners were interested in what the Russians did. They lifted the siege and left with it. This made them conclude that they were fed directly from the earth.

Prunes are used to prepare the sweet juice. To prevent them from tasting weird, strawberries are used. Bilberries are also a major and common ingredient because they are relatively cheap and readily found. They do not grow in a specific area. They are collected from bushes, forests and bare lands. There are other types of soup containing milk others vanilla. Thick ones are taken using spoons.

The ready made kissel is preferred by most people, because it can be easy to prepare and needs less time when preparing. It s does not require collecting fruits, mashing starch and mixing them. This makes it possible for anyone to prepare since it requires little skill. Strawberry flavored kissel is mixed with potato starch flour and boiled in water. It will only need one to read the recipe to excellently prepare. The ready made types contain some notes on the tin or paper that explains how they are cooked.

They are served in different ways. They can be served when hot or cold. Kissel can be taken with a number of foods such as spaghetti, rice or corn. Mostly it is served after meals. It is known to be rich in vitamins and starch. Growing children, youths and the sick are urged to make it part of their diet.

If well prepared, it can last for two or three days. The meal is eaten mostly by the whites who take it with a variety of foods such as spaghetti, rice and wheat products. In Africa and South America, this soup is not common at all. It is rarely available in shops but can be found in supermarkets. The ready made soup is expensive thus a little percentage of the population can afford it.

Preservation can be done through freezing. Kissel should be well preserved to reduce its chances of going stale. They are always stored in metallic tins or plastic bags. This helps to reduce the amount of oxygen that gets into contact with the soup.

Kissel is a popular option among people who earn little income. This is because it is cheap and takes less time to prepare compared to the ordinary soups made out of meat and other vegetables. Its availability is as well a major contributory factor when it comes to explaining the popularity of kissel.
