Beetroot sour borscht soup

I am a big fan of sour soups. I have a knack for making one of the best ones by combining all sorts of ingredients. This sour soup reminds me of my childhood and I strongly remember how I was fascinated by the pink reddish colour of it while I was viciously slurping it.

There is the classical recipe of ukrainian borscht recipe and this is a variation of it. Lentils are optional, I often add them in any soup as I like their taste and their benefits.

Borscht is a liquid obtained from the fermentation of the wheat brans in water. In the countryside people use water from their own wells. It is sour, tasty and packed with a lot of vitamins B. Borscht is an excellent source of vitamin B12 and if you have a good stomach I recommend you drinking a small glass of it every morning.

Back to the recipe. This is very simple. Here are the ingredients that you will need:

1 parsnip
1 red onion
4 carrots
1 potato
2 beetroots
fresh lovage
1 liter of borscht
lentils (optional)
salt
pepper

You first start by putting the 1 liter of borscht to boil. Meanwhile you chop the veggies . You add the veggies in the borscht and then cover them with aprox. 2-3 liters of water. You let it simmer for 1-2 hours maximum until all veggies are done. I personally add lentils and leave them to boil for 15 minutes.

At the end you chop fresh lovage and add salt and pepper. We usually eat this soup with polenta rather than bread and you can also add sour cream ( as you can see in the pictures the soup looks more colourful after you add sour cream).

Soups are simple and quick to do. And I always like the ones which bring back childhood memories to me.

that is a very interesting recipe you got there. in my country- the Philippines we got a lot of food- that tastes sour, spicy, salty, and we enjoy them all.

I am not so familiar with your cuisine, do you have a similar soup which is sour? I'd love to hear your thoughts about a favourite soup of yours

Thanks for sharing :)

I am not into sour soups. But, I think it looks yummy and tasty.

Oh yes it is yummy and delicious I love it! Thanks for stopping by! I am curious though...what is your favourite soup?

very healthy recipe

Yes and it is packed with vitamins!

Looks like this was made for the Cold Beet Root Soup guys. @coldbeetrootsoup

uuuuh Where ever there is Beet, there is we as well :P And we love borscht 😍

There should be a borscht community on Hive I would gladly join😁😆

Well, we have a Cold Beetroot Soup community on Hive and on Discord, but it is usually not all about soup as Food :D

"Borscht is a liquid obtained from the fermentation of the wheat brans in water."

I learned something from your post. I thought "borscht" meant "beetroot soup" and not merely an ingredient used in other soups as well as beetroot soup! I like lentils, too, and your soup sounds yummy! Thanks for sharing! 😋

Yes borscht is an ingredient in itself, a sort of sour fermented water from the wheat brans. This is what gives the special taste to the soup. Thank you for stopping by!

100% this tastes sssooooo good!! I remember last year that my Polish schoolmate brought it at the class to share. Happy with it ! ❤️I am a foodie and I love food adventure 💃🙌

Oh so this brought back nice memories to you! We never seem to ever forget the taste of a special food shared at a certain point with someone🤩

Definitely! I couldn't agree more ❤️💃

The soup looks so delicious 😋. I like soup but have not eaten sour soup. Thanks for sharing.

Simple soups are the coolest thing ever. They always have their own essence. I'm talking about practicality.

This is an interesting recipe. :)
