| Boilerpipe Text | My husband and I love beets so in this year’s garden I planted 8 seedlings, which grew beautifully! I usually roast or steam my beets, then season them with a drizzle of olive oil, a dash of balsamic or red wine vinegar, and finish with a little fresh ground black pepper and sea salt. I was sharing this simple recipe with a client of mine when she suggested I try Borscht.
Borscht
? I’ve never heard of it…
She explained that it’s a simple, and absolutely delicious Ukrainian beet soup. About a week later my friend, Courtney, and I were chatting about food (as we always do) and she mentioned that her mother-in-law makes the most amazing Borscht. Again, this dish was calling my name! Her husband and his family are from Poland and it’s a soup that regularly makes an appearance at family gatherings. This was it…I had to try it and I hope you do too!
Borscht Recipe
Ingredients:
2 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
2 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
1 medium russet potato, peeled and diced
Sea salt and ground black pepper, to taste
1 ½ C beets, cut into ½” cubes
2 tsp. red wine vinegar
ÂĽ cup plain Greek yogurt or light sour cream (OPTIONAL)
1 tbsp. fresh chopped parsley
Directions:
1. Steam beets: Remove beet greens, peel with vegetable peeler and chop into ½” cubes. Please in steam basket over 1” water of boiling water in a large pot. Cover and steam on high heat until tender, about 10 minutes.
2. In a large saucepan, heat oil over medium heat. Add onion and cook until it starts to tenderize, about 4-5 minutes.
3. Add vegetable broth, diced potato and season with salt and pepper to taste.
4. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer. Cover and cook until the potato is almost tender, about 7-8 minutes.
5. Add beets and red wine vinegar.
6. Bring to a boil again. Cover pot and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the broth is deep red and potato is very soft. Serve and enjoy!
OPTIONAL: Traditionally, Borscht is finished with a dollop of sour cream. However, I made it a little healthier by using plain Greek yogurt. I mixed the chopped parsley into the Greek yogurt and dropped a spoonful into the center of the dish when served. However, the soup is delicious on its own so you don’t necessarily need the yogurt or sour cream. Instead, finish the dish with a sprinkle of fresh parsley when served.
