Borscht Soup

Baba gave Mom her recipe for the Borscht Soup (Remember she does not write this down it’s a pinch of this and that so mom tried to figure it out)

So her we go.

Peel 6 large Beets and boil whole until tender sent aside to cool before you shred the beets. Mom uses her salad shooter. Return to the soup pot keep the water from the beets. A hint when you peel the beets prior to cooking your fingers will be RED. 

She dices onions and lightly fries them in butter add to the pot.  Dice carrots and celery add to the pot. Add 2 cans chicken broth and 2 or more of pollo (a powder chicken broth) Add 1 tablespoon of Cider vinegar.

Remember everything is up to your taste.

Mom adds different spices sprinkle a little of ….Parsley flakes, Onion salt, Whole Oregano flakes, little salt,  mostly Dill weed.

When the soup is  finished you can add sour cream or heavy cream to lighten the flavor. Mom likes it red or pink with the light cream. My brothers love the sour cream go figure.

You can add boiled potatoes and pork and beans into your soup this again is up to your taste. Here is what the soup looks like.
Be Creative
Enjoy
