Khashi
Georgian Hangover Soup
Khashi is a traditional Georgian soup renowned for its restorative properties, particularly as a hangover cure. Made from beef (or sometimes lamb) head, feet, and tripe, it's simmered for hours until the meat is incredibly tender and the broth is rich and gelatinous. It's typically seasoned generously with garlic and salt, and served piping hot with lavash bread and chacha (a Georgian spirit).

👨🍳 Instrucțiuni

Thoroughly clean the beef or lamb feet, tripe, and head. If using a head, ensure it's cut into manageable pieces. Some recipes suggest soaking the tripe in lime beforehand to soften the membrane.

Place the cleaned meat parts in a large pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, then immediately skim off any foam or scum that rises to the surface. This step is important for a clear broth.

Discard the initial water. Add fresh water to cover the meat generously, and bring to a gentle simmer over low heat. Cover the pot partially and let it cook for at least 6-8 hours, or until the meat is falling off the bones and the broth is thick and gelatinous. Skim off any excess fat or foam periodically.

In the last hour of cooking, stir in the mashed garlic and salt to taste. Some variations may include adding a piece of old bread wrapped in gauze to the broth during the final stages of cooking.
