sour
Explanation:
Shchi (Russian: щи, IPA: [ɕːi] is a Russian-style cabbage soup. When sauerkraut is used instead, the soup is called sour shchi, while soups based on sorrel, spinach, nettle, and similar plants are called green shchi (Russian: зелёные щи, zelyoniye shchi). In the past, the term sour shchi was also used to refer to a drink, a variation of kvass, which was unrelated to the soup.[1][2]

agree  Boris Shapiro: Хороший нейтральный вариант - особенно учитывая тот факт, что не во всяком месте это бывает именно кисломолочная "закваска" (могут для экономии и просто уксусу добавить или маринованных на уксусе же овощей).
