There are two ways to prepare the potatoes for the recipe: if you prefer the salad with French fries, you will need more refined oil for frying. For boiled potatoes, prepare a pan. This recipe shows net weight for potatoes.

Another point to pay attention to: all salad ingredients must have the same shape and size.

Cooking method:

1. It is important to prepare the pieces of meat well so that the cutting turns out even, measuring 1.5x1.5x6 cm. To facilitate the process, after stripping the pulp, freeze it slightly: the meat will become dense, and a beautiful cutting shape is guaranteed. But do not overfreeze: the meat should remain fresh. Sharpen the knife blade before starting work.

1. Heat the frying pan high. Grease with a small amount of vegetable fat, throw in spices crushed in a mortar. Don't add salt. After a minute, start frying the pork, in small portions. The bottom should be covered in one layer so that the pieces are evenly fried on all sides and it is convenient to turn them over. After the pork, fry the veal in the same pan.

1. Transfer the roast to a sieve set on a rack, allowing excess fat to drip off.

1. Again, in the same frying pan, sauté the onion, cut into thin half rings, until soft.

1. Cut the peeled potatoes into bars the same size as the meat. Deep fry. If you choose the salad option with boiled potatoes, then place the cut potatoes into cold, lightly salted water. At the end of cooking, add spices for flavor.

1. Cut the cucumbers into the same shape as the meat and potatoes. Drain off any excess marinade to prevent the meat and potatoes in the salad from becoming soggy.

1. Combine mayonnaise with lemon juice, add salt and sugar, ground spices, finely chopped dill.

1. Place the prepared lettuce leaves at the bottom of the salad bowl or dish, mix the salad carefully and place it on the “green pillow”.

The ingredients can be laid out differently: put sautéed red onion on the meat, and place potatoes and cucumbers around it. Each chef is his own artist and has the right to choose the design options for his dish.

Rose Avalange: description of the variety

Hybrid tea rose Avalange is a variety intended for cutting.
The buds of the plant are quite large in size, which are sometimes called terry. The color of the petals is white. Its emerald tint on silky petals is the first thing that catches your eye. The most beautiful buds with a pleasant aroma brought him the love of all the women on the planet.

Translated into Russian, the name of the flower sounds like “Avalanche”. And indeed it is. If the bush begins to bloom, it resembles an avalanche of soft white color, which does not fade throughout the summer season.

When open, the flowers of the plant reach 13 cm in diameter. It is in color throughout the summer season, and in suitable weather conditions also in the fall.

Important! Even if the summer was too hot, Avalange (rose Avalanche) will bloom no less beautifully.

The height of the bush is about 90 cm. Its shoots are quite powerful and can withstand heavy loads in the form of heavy buds.

Avalanche rose tolerates winter frosts well, as well as pest attacks and various diseases.

The leaves are dark green with a pleasant gloss, which goes well with the bright white flowers and their purple tint.

A cut flower can retain its beauty for about two weeks if properly maintained.

The beauty of the plant is blinding! But at the same time, it requires proper care and attention.

Every gardener dreams of his garden being the most beautiful and fragrant. It is Avalanche roses that will be able to give the garden the necessary look, because these beautiful flowers will always stand out among other plants. When choosing a site for growing roses, you must choose places that are completely free of drafts.

It is necessary to choose places that are completely free of drafts

When preparing a hole for planting, you need to make sure that the roots of the bush feel quite free in it. The depth of the hole should be at least half a meter. Before planting, the soil must be mixed with organic and chemical fertilizer. It is necessary to water the seedlings frequently, but the soil should not become waterlogged, as this can lead to diseases of the roses and sometimes to their death.

Important! Before planting, the young seedling must be kept in water for some time.

Rose bushes can be planted only after the soil has warmed up well. For example, in central Russia, planting can be done in mid-April, but in the Urals only in mid-May.

Roses need constant attention and timely care. Plants need to be watered at least once a week, it all depends on the amount of precipitation. You also need to constantly trim and fertilize the bushes. Any organic and chemical fertilizers are suitable as fertilizers. It is necessary to fertilize plants in May and July.

In early spring, before the buds wake up, the bushes need to be pruned. An equally important stage of care is its autumn shelter. After all, the plant is very tender and quite sensitive to winter frosts. That is why it must be carefully wrapped, otherwise it will not survive severe frosts and will cease to delight with its wonderful flowers, and may even die completely. Before the autumn wrapping, the plant is fed again - this will give it more strength in the winter and allow it to preserve all its qualities.

The main advantages of the variety include:

• fairly compact size of the bushes;
• large buds;
• long flowering period;
• frost resistance;
• pleasant unobtrusive aroma;
• the ability to grow in almost any region of our country;
• the duration of storage of cut buds, which no pink flower can boast of.

Like many other plants, Avalanche roses have drawbacks, but there are very few of them. For example, they require careful care. But it is precisely this quality that scares away gardeners. But do not forget that “beauty requires sacrifice.”

To create a beautiful garden, you just need to plant this magnificent plant, which will become the center of the entire flower arrangement. And with proper care, it will attract a lot of attention and cause the envy of the neighbors. In addition, roses of this variety are considered a symbol of love, so they are usually given as a gift on the first date and used to make bouquets for brides. Snow-white flowers with an emerald border can melt the heart of the most adamant girl.

If you are a flower lover and you really want to please yourself with something beautiful, to decorate your plot of land in the country or at home, then this article is suitable for you.

One of the most amazing plants is the Avalange rose. This is a beautiful flower with white petals, which has an emerald bud. Belongs to the group of hybrid tea roses. The buds are large, about 40-50 petals, and always open. The stem has a small number of thorns and large dark green leaves. The plant looks very beautiful both in group plantings and alone.

This hybrid tea rose was bred in the Netherlands, the variety is a cut rose, and has an open cup shape. The plant has a single shoot on the stem. The flower belongs to the classic form.

Continuous flowering even on the hot days of summer pleases with its abundance. At the same time, the aroma is weak and reveals itself most sensually at the beginning of the evening.

This type of rose is special, and the peculiarity is as follows:

• the open flower reaches 13 cm in diameter;
• the bush has a height of 80-100 cm;
• the plant is resistant to frost and cold, as well as to diseases and pests;
• a cut rose can be stored in a vase for about 2 weeks;
• has constant abundant flowering;
• fertilizing is carried out in spring and summer.

Before planting, seedlings are kept in water for 4-6 hours. This is especially important when the root system is exposed. If there are damaged shoots, they should be removed, leaving only strong and medium ones.

It is necessary to plant in a sunny place, the soil should be moist and drained. We dig a hole so that the roots are freely located in it. We make drainage from squeak or gravel. Stagnation of water should not be allowed.

The next stage is the soil mixture: manure, fertile soil, sand and peat. The best time for planting is the beginning of May.

Roses love moist soil, so it is necessary to regularly water, fertilize, and weed them. They grow well in light shade, but if left in the sun for a long time they quickly fade.

In the winter, roses are buried in peat, and in the spring they are leveled. Also in the spring, pruning is carried out, always before the buds awaken.

We have looked at the description and care of the Avalange rose, now let's look at the varieties. I would like to pay special attention to the Peach and Sweet categories.

Rose Peach Avalange was developed recently (2007) in the Netherlands by Lex Voorn. This is a white-yellow flower with a diameter of about 13 cm and a height of 90 cm. It has the classic shape of a hybrid tea rose with a high center, single on the shoots. The flower lasts a long time on the bush and does not deteriorate due to weather conditions.

The rose is planted in a sunny place. A hole is dug to a depth of 50 cm, the roots are freely located in the hole. The flower loves moisture, but cannot tolerate it if the water stagnates. Planted in warm soil in early May.

The plant must be regularly watered, fertilized, and weeded. Abundant watering should be provided consistently once a week. For the winter, the rose is covered (dug in with earth, and dug up in the spring).

Let's highlight some points about this rose variety:

• has a peach color;
• plant height 60-100 cm;
• there are about 50-60 petals in a bud;
• flowering abundantly, repeated after cutting;
• frost resistance is average;
• average disease resistance.

Rose Sweet Avalange is soft pink with a wonderful aroma. Bred by English breeders relatively recently. The bud measures about 10 cm, height – 90-110 cm. The plant is characterized by a light aroma, which reveals itself more intensely in the evening. This variety is decorative, so it is not often seen in a simple flower bed.

The health of the rose largely depends on the planting location. It should be planted in soil with good air circulation, and in no case in low-lying places, because cold air stagnates there and the plant can get sick. It grows well on fertile soil, which can provide the roots with moisture and air.

You can plant the plant in the fall, but the sooner the better, so that the root system has time to take root (before frost). For planting, we dig a hole about 50-60 cm deep, and be sure to put drainage at the bottom (crushed stone and small stones are suitable). Fertilizer is placed on top of the drainage; earth is poured on top in the shape of a dome.

Caring for the plant consists of systematically loosening the soil, fertilizing, pruning, and preventing diseases. It is necessary to water the plant, especially during dry and hot periods, but under no circumstances overwater it.

Roses are pruned in the spring, but in the fall this process is sanitary in nature, that is, damaged, diseased shoots are removed. In summer, pruning is done to regulate flowering.

Like all roses, Avalange requires insulation before frost, that is, the rose is dug up, and in the spring it is dug up.

• has a soft pink color;
• medium aroma;
• plant height 90-130 cm;
• blooms twice a season;
• strong resistance to powdery mildew;
• strong resistance to black spot.

The Avalange rose bush is not too tall - it grows up to 80 cm. The variety also cannot be called spreading - it is quite compact and miniature, with a diameter of only 50 cm. The shoots of the bush are very elastic and strong, and do not bend under gusts of wind and the weight of flowers. The branches are slightly covered with thorns.

Cooking method:

1. Start by preparing the meat to make it easier to determine the weight of the remaining ingredients, focusing on the yield of the finished product. Cut the meat into long strips and fry as described in the first recipe. Fry at maximum temperature so that a crust instantly forms on the surface of the pieces, which seals the juice inside them. Frying time – 3-4 minutes. Leave the fried meat in the hot pan and transfer to a salad bowl when cool.
2. Cut the peeled cucumber and apple into strips. Immediately sprinkle the apple with lemon juice to prevent a red coating from forming. Add the chopped ingredients to the cooled meat.

Rose Avalange: description of the variety

Candy Avalanche

Translated from English it means “sweetness”, “candy”. This variety can really be compared to some kind of dessert, because the rose flowers are very bright and fragrant. The buds of the Candy variety are pink and reach a diameter of 10 cm. The smell of the flowers is similar to fruity, it is quite rich.

These are perhaps the largest roses of all Avalange varieties. The diameter of the blossoming buds of Sweet Avalange is 12-14 cm. The color of the flowers is soft apricot with a cream undertone.

• compactness of the bush;
• large bud sizes;
• long flowering period;
• resistance to low temperatures and many diseases;

• light aroma;
• long shelf life of cut flowers.

• demanding on the composition of the soil, which scares off many gardeners.

Planting is done in mid-spring. Since the variety belongs to the hybrid tea group, it is recommended to plant the rose in sunny areas. However, it is very important that these places are reliably protected from draft winds.

Slightly acidic soil is ideal for this variety. Experienced gardeners regulate the acidity of the soil by adding lime, peat or wood ash. Before planting, the soil should be abundantly moistened. It is worth pouring a thick layer of drainage at the bottom of the hole, which will prevent moisture from stagnating in the ground.

An incorrectly chosen planting location has a negative impact on flowering.

Planting Tips

The optimal depth of the hole is considered to be 50-60 cm. You should definitely add fertilizing in the form of organic fertilizer to the hole. Particular attention must be paid to the preparation of planting material.

6-7 hours before planting, seedlings should be soaked in plain water. This will saturate the planting material with moisture and allow it to quickly adapt to new conditions.

Also, seedlings are often placed in a solution of a growth stimulant, which accelerates the processes of rooting and vegetation.

Watering is the basis of plant care. The most important thing in this process is the temperature of the water - it should be room temperature. This is especially important in hot weather, when it is necessary to minimize the difference between the temperature of the water and the environment. In summer, watering is carried out twice a week. With the arrival of autumn, the frequency of watering is reduced, gradually reducing to zero. One bush requires about 20 liters of water.

Weeding is another important condition for the successful cultivation of roses. Ridding the soil of weeds allows you to provide the shrubs with proper nutrition. After all, weeds, especially if they grow in large numbers, literally suck all the useful elements from the soil.

Preparation for winter consists of covering the root area of ​​the bush with peat or insulating this area with non-woven material. With the arrival of spring, the plant is immediately opened. Timely ridding of shrubs from insulation helps prevent rotting of the root system.

Preparing for winter involves insulating the root area of ​​the bush

The best time for pruning is spring. The pruning procedure is carried out after the buds bloom on the bush. This pruning allows you to give the bush the desired shape and rid it of dry and damaged branches.

• spotting;
• rust;
• gray rot;
• powdery mildew.

To protect your shrub, it is important not to neglect preventive measures. It is recommended to regularly treat the plant with special insecticidal preparations that repel pests and prevent infection with a serious disease.

Avalange perfectly adapts to weather conditions and is able to survive even the most severe frosts. This is probably why the plant is so valued by Russian gardeners.

1. Sweet Avalange. It was bred to decorate flower beds and local areas. The height of the bushes is 100-120 cm. The buds have a diameter of 12 cm. The petals have a delicate apricot hue with a bright green crown. Sweet can withstand frosts down to -20 degrees, and is also resistant to diseases and pests.

The blossomed flower has a diameter of 8-10 cm. Candy has a pleasant fruity aroma. After cutting, it can stay in a vase for up to 12 days.

Selecting a location

For planting, choose a light area, as for other hybrid tea varieties. It must be protected from drafts and gusty winds. When deciding on the landing site, they look at the acidity level. The variety is suitable for soil whose acidity level varies between 5.6 - 7.3 pH.

Timing

Planting is done in spring or autumn. When planting in spring, make sure that the threat of frost has passed. They can harm a young plant. Optimal time for spring planting: late September - early October. Before frost sets in, the rose has time to take root.

An important criterion when choosing soil is its acidity level. The best indicator is from 5.6 to 6.5 pH. If it is necessary to acidify the area, add peat or manure to the soil. To reduce acidity, add ash or lime. In clayey areas, peat, sand, and humus are added. It is important to pay attention to the occurrence of groundwater.

Landing

The planting hole should have a depth of 50 cm. A 10-centimeter layer of drainage in the form of stone or crushed stone is laid at the bottom, followed by the same layer of organic fertilizers and garden soil. The seedlings selected for planting are kept in water for 3 to 5 hours. The root system is treated with biostimulants. This saturation of the sprout will increase its endurance when planting in a new place.

Specifics of crop care

Rosa Sweet Avalange

Before purchasing rose bushes for your garden plot, you need to understand what purpose they will serve. For example, the described variety is most often grown for cutting. And, nevertheless, the bushes have unprecedented beauty, so they are cultivated in clearly visible places.

Candy Avalange is one of the varieties that professional florists use to create their floral creations. The bush of the plant is quite compact and has a height of no more than 80 cm. Flowering occurs throughout the summer period, until the onset of the first autumn frosts.

Rose Candy Avalanche

The bud holds its shape perfectly, opening gradually. Its color is very pleasant - it is a mix of pink and white, more like baked milk. When open, the diameter of the flower reaches 8-10 cm. The aroma is pleasant, filled with fruity notes. In a Vase with water, a cut rose can retain its beauty and aroma for 10-12 days.

Abundant and regular watering is the main action in caring for the variety. It is important to prevent the soil from drying out, especially on hot, dry days. For watering, use cold water so as not to stress the root system. Up to 20 liters of liquid are spent on 1 bush. The regularity of watering is determined depending on weather conditions, but not less than twice a week. In autumn, watering is stopped.

In spring, the plant is given nitrogen fertilizers. In summer, for prolonged flowering, the bush is enriched with potassium-phosphorus complexes. Roses also respond well to the addition of organic matter: humus or vermicompost at any time.

Weeding

Timely weeding will allow the plant to receive more nutrients from the soil. Tall weeds can create unfavorable shade. Control of unwanted grass is carried out before planting, for example, using herbicides. After planting, the procedure is carried out manually using a hoe.

Trimming

Pruning rose bushes is a labor-intensive task. Thanks to it, the plant develops more intensively, the bush acquires the necessary decorative shape. After removing old dried stems, the rose redirects the consumption of nutrients to young shoots. The rose is saturated with oxygen, reducing the risk of disease.

Transfer

The best time for transplanting is the beginning of spring or autumn. If there is a need to transplant a rose in the summer, then the procedure is carried out on a cloudy day. Before transplanting, the stems are shortened and the buds are cut off. The rose is dug around with a diameter of 50 cm and transferred to a new place along with a lump of earth. Compliance with this condition allows you to reduce damage to the horse system and speed up the process of adaptation to a new place.

Wintering

The Avalange variety is characterized by high frost resistance. Without shelter, it can withstand cold temperatures down to -7 degrees. To tolerate lower temperatures, the rose will need to create a shelter. To do this, a circle of soil with a diameter of up to 30 cm is poured around the root system. The cut stems are covered with dense material and covered with a peat layer.

As the weather warms up, plants are opened to avoid overheating.

You need to water the rose often, but in moderation, so that the root system does not begin to rot and the plant does not get sick and die. Before planting the seedling, it needs to be kept in water for a short time. For planting, you need to choose a time when the soil is completely warm. In some regions this may be April, and in others it may be May.

You need to water the rose at least once a week. You are guided by the amount of rain that falls. Don't forget about pruning and fertilizing the variety. Both chemical and organic fertilizers are suitable for feeding. Fertilizers should be applied in May and July. Before the buds appear, in the spring, you need to prune the bushes. It is very important to cover the bush in the fall before the winter months.

Rose is a very delicate plant, so shelter is vital for it. Without doing this, the rose may not tolerate winter frosts and die. Before covering the bush, you can add fertilizer to it. This will allow the rose to better endure the winter months and gain new strength before the new season.

Timing

In the middle zone and to the north, planting is carried out in the spring (April-May). In autumn, planting is done taking into account the fact that the plant must have time to take root by winter.

Suitable soil acidity ranges from 5.3 to 7.3 pH. Ideal values ​​are from 5.6 to 6.5 ph. Manure or peat can be used for acidification, and lime or ash for alkalization.

. Clay soil can be improved with peat and sand, sandy soil can be improved with humus, turf and clay. If the groundwater level is higher than 1 meter, the plant may suffer from black spot.

To plant a rose bush, a hole of 50-60 cm is dug and filled with the following layers (from below): 10 cm of drainage (pebbles, crushed stone), organic fertilizers (10 cm), garden soil 10 cm.

Landing

Before planting in the ground, seedlings should stand in water for 4-5 hours. Such saturation with moisture will ensure adaptability and endurance of plants in a new place. You can treat the seedlings with a root growth stimulator (place them in the solution for a day).

It is necessary to replant all shoots and remove dead areas of the bush. It is convenient to plant a rose with an open root system in this way: the place where the rose is grafted is hidden 3 cm underground, the roots are straightened and covered with soil, the soil around the plant is slightly compacted.

Temperature

The variety has good heat resistance. One of the main advantages of Avalange is considered to be successful wintering. The plant is not afraid of frost and temperature changes. The variety can withstand frosts down to -7 °C without covering. The minimum temperature is -23 °C.

The basis of plant care is mandatory watering. This is especially important during hot and dry periods. The water should not be cold. Consumption is 15-20 liters per bush. In dry, warm weather, this should be done twice a week. Closer to autumn, watering is gradually stopped. It ends completely in September.

Top dressing

In spring, the plant is fed with nitrogen fertilizers. In summer, potassium and phosphorus are added. The addition of organic vermicompost or humus is important throughout the growing season.

Weeding

Roses need systematic loosening of the soil and weeding to remove weeds.

Trimming

To one degree or another, the plant is pruned throughout the growing season.

. It is done after the kidneys swell. Spring pruning is done to improve flowering and bush formation.

After planting the seedlings and to rejuvenate the old plant, severe pruning is done (2-4 buds are left). To achieve early flowering and good decorative properties, medium pruning is used in spring. Leaving 5-7 buds.

1. Preventive pruning in the fall allows you to remove diseased shoots, defuse bushes and is sanitary in nature.
2. Formative. In summer, faded buds are cut off along with the upper part of the shoot in order to regulate flowering (light pruning). Heavy pruning can be used to shape and rejuvenate an old bush.

Transfer

The ideal time to transplant an adult plant is early spring or autumn. In summer, the bush is replanted in cloudy weather and trimmed heavily. The plant is removed from its original place with a lump of earth. All buds are removed from a blooming rose before transplanting.

Preparing for winter

In winter, roses must be insulated in one of the following ways: you can pour 20-30 cm of soil on the root system, cover it with a thick non-woven covering material, and cover it with a layer of peat. In spring, flowers must be opened so that they do not rot. Shelter will be required after a sustained cold snap below -7 degrees.

Before covering, roses are pruned and covered with soil. You can put spruce branches between the bushes and on top of the plants themselves. After this, the frame is set to a height of 20-30 cm and covered with covering material. Polyethylene spreads on top, leaving air holes on the sides. In spring, the sides can be opened slightly for ventilation.

Recipe for Prague lamb salad, Mediterranean style – Bohemian cuisine

The cuisine of the northwestern Czech Republic differs from the southern and eastern regions, where lamb and poultry are much more often eaten. Here, Mediterranean and Turkic accents are more often found in the composition of dishes - the result of the merging of ethnic groups in the course of history. The southern, Bohemian version of the dish is supplemented with tomatoes and basil. It still contains cucumbers and apples, but in combination with lamb cooked over an open fire or game meat. Try this salad if the opportunity arises.

Therefore, if there is no lamb, replace it with roasted duck, beef - it doesn’t matter, but the meat should be red and fried. Also improvise with herbs and dressing if desired.

Cooking method:

1. Change your food cutting style. Larger pieces also taste completely different, and in the south of the Czech Republic they prefer to cut the ingredients into large slices. Cut the meat, tomatoes and cucumbers into slices.

Tips from the chef: secrets and technological features of cooking

• To make fried meat more flavorful, add a pinch of freshly ground spices to a preheated frying pan. It is not advisable to salt meat when frying.
• Salt, sauces, and sugar draw juice from the vegetable components of the salad. To keep the salad fresh, season the dish just before serving.
• Meat salads with mayonnaise are stored for no more than two hours from the moment of preparation. Afterwards they lose their attractive appearance, taste, and even become dangerous to eat.
• Meat salads have a more interesting taste if you use different types of meat, including fried and smoked. The recipe for the Prague salad was developed on this principle.
• Recent trends in salad preparation technology provide for a slightly different form of serving salads. Try to arrange the dish so that its ingredients can be seen, and do not get carried away with adding too much mayonnaise: to add juiciness, the meat salad contains vegetables and fruits.
