Plus, its gorgeous red hue is absolutely stunning!\nWhat Is Borscht? \nBorscht is a sour soup that is traditionally made with meat stock and boiled vegetables. The Ukrainian version, which features beets, is perhaps the most well known type — but varieties of borscht can be found throughout Central and Eastern Europe and Northern Asia. \nBorscht Ingredients\nThese are the ingredients you’ll need to make this top-rated borscht recipe: \nSausage\n: This Ukrainian borscht recipe starts with a pound of pork sausage. \nVegetables\n: You’ll need beets, carrots, baking potatoes, cabbage, and an onion. \nCanned tomatoes\n: Use drained diced tomatoes and canned tomato paste. \nVegetable oil\n: Cook the onion in oil. \nWater\n: You’ll need almost nine cups of water for this big-batch soup. \nGarlic\n: Three cloves of garlic add bold flavor. \nSugar\n: A teaspoon of white sugar lends subtle sweetness. \nSeasonings\n: Season the borscht with salt and pepper to taste. \nSour cream\n: Top the borscht with sour cream. \nFresh herbs\n: Garnish the soup with fresh parsley or dill. \nHow to Store Borscht\nStore leftover borscht in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Reheat in the microwave or on the stove. \nCan You Freeze Borscht?\nYes, borscht freezes well! When you add it to your freezer-safe containers, make sure to leave an inch or two of space at the top to allow for expansion. Freeze the borscht for up to two months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight, then reheat in the microwave or on the stove. \nAllrecipes Community Tips and Praise\n“This was the first time I've had borscht and now I see why so many people love it,” says one Allrecipes community member. “I can't believe how good it is.”\n“Just perfect,” raves\nOlechka\n. “Classic recipe, great taste, my favorite.”\n“Best borscht ever,” according to\nKLaura Anderson-Bradfield\n. “I have made many different beet soup recipes over the years. The addition of an acidic ingredient (tomato) still allowed the beets to shine but removed the heavy, sometimes too earthy taste common to borscht.”\nEditorial contributions by\nCorey Williams","attrs_markdown":"\n\n[Skip to content](https:\/\/www.allrecipes.com\/recipe\/84450\/ukrainian-red-borscht-soup\/#main)\n\n[Allrecipes](https:\/\/www.allrecipes.com\/)\n\nSave\n\nRate\n\n- Please fill out this field.\n  Please fill out this field.\n- [Newsletters](https:\/\/www.allrecipes.com\/recipe\/84450\/ukrainian-red-borscht-soup\/)\n- [Sweepstakes](https:\/\/www.allrecipes.com\/sweepstakes)\n- [My Saves](https:\/\/www.myrecipes.com\/)\n\n[Allrecipes](https:\/\/www.allrecipes.com\/)\n\nPlease fill out this field.\n\n- [Dinners](https:\/\/www.allrecipes.com\/recipes\/17562\/dinner\/)\n  Dinners\n  \n  -

I liked the addition of the sausage (I usually just use plain venison). I thought that it could've used at least some broth in place of the water for a bit more richness; and I really missed the tang you get from adding vinegar like a lot of other borscht recipes do. However, this was still quite tasty, and a really nice change-up from the usual.

Plus, its gorgeous red hue is absolutely stunning\! ## What Is Borscht? Borscht is a sour soup that is traditionally made with meat stock and boiled vegetables. The Ukrainian version, which features beets, is perhaps the most well known type — but varieties of borscht can be found throughout Central and Eastern Europe and Northern Asia. ## Borscht Ingredients These are the ingredients you’ll need to make this top-rated borscht recipe: - Sausage: This Ukrainian borscht recipe starts with a pound of pork sausage. - Vegetables: You’ll need beets, carrots, baking potatoes, cabbage, and an onion. - Canned tomatoes: Use drained diced tomatoes and canned tomato paste. - Vegetable oil: Cook the onion in oil. - Water: You’ll need almost nine cups of water for this big-batch soup. - Garlic: Three cloves of garlic add bold flavor. - Sugar: A teaspoon of white sugar lends subtle sweetness. - Seasonings: Season the borscht with salt and pepper to taste. - Sour cream: Top the borscht with sour cream. - Fresh herbs: Garnish the soup with fresh parsley or dill. ## How to Store Borscht Store leftover borscht in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Reheat in the microwave or on the stove. ## Can You Freeze Borscht? Yes, borscht freezes well! When you add it to your freezer-safe containers, make sure to leave an inch or two of space at the top to allow for expansion. Freeze the borscht for up to two months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight, then reheat in the microwave or on the stove. ## Allrecipes Community Tips and Praise “This was the first time I've had borscht and now I see why so many people love it,” says one Allrecipes community member. “I can't believe how good it is.” “Just perfect,” raves [Olechka](https://www.allrecipes.com/cook/9868788). “Classic recipe, great taste, my favorite.” “Best borscht ever,” according to [KLaura Anderson-Bradfield](https://www.allrecipes.com/cook/26201354). “I have made many different beet soup recipes over the years. The addition of an acidic ingredient (tomato) still allowed the beets to shine but removed the heavy, sometimes too earthy taste common to borscht.” Editorial contributions by [Corey Williams](https://www.allrecipes.com/author/corey-williams/) Keep Screen Awake ## Ingredients 1/2x 1x 2x Oops!

I liked the addition of the sausage (I usually just use plain venison). I thought that it could've used at least some broth in place of the water for a bit more richness; and I really missed the tang you get from adding vinegar like a lot of other borscht recipes do. However, this was still quite tasty, and a really nice change-up from the usual. Thank you for sharing your recipe\! 03 of 68 ![]() Photo by ILikeCooking 03/07/2022 Very good and different than most foods I’ve had.

Just great soup 06 of 68 ![]() Photo by Lara Estes 12/29/2020 I followed the advice of another reviewer and boiled my beets whole and shredded them, adding them about 5 mins before it finished cooking.

Readable Markdown	This borscht recipe is delicious, nutritious, and full of flavor. Plus, its gorgeous red hue is absolutely stunning\! ## What Is Borscht? Borscht is a sour soup that is traditionally made with meat stock and boiled vegetables. The Ukrainian version, which features beets, is perhaps the most well known type — but varieties of borscht can be found throughout Central and Eastern Europe and Northern Asia. ## Borscht Ingredients These are the ingredients you’ll need to make this top-rated borscht recipe: - Sausage: This Ukrainian borscht recipe starts with a pound of pork sausage. - Vegetables: You’ll need beets, carrots, baking potatoes, cabbage, and an onion. - Canned tomatoes: Use drained diced tomatoes and canned tomato paste. - Vegetable oil: Cook the onion in oil. - Water: You’ll need almost nine cups of water for this big-batch soup. - Garlic: Three cloves of garlic add bold flavor. - Sugar: A teaspoon of white sugar lends subtle sweetness. - Seasonings: Season the borscht with salt and pepper to taste. - Sour cream: Top the borscht with sour cream. - Fresh herbs: Garnish the soup with fresh parsley or dill. ## How to Store Borscht Store leftover borscht in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Reheat in the microwave or on the stove. ## Can You Freeze Borscht? Yes, borscht freezes well! When you add it to your freezer-safe containers, make sure to leave an inch or two of space at the top to allow for expansion. Freeze the borscht for up to two months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight, then reheat in the microwave or on the stove. ## Allrecipes Community Tips and Praise “This was the first time I've had borscht and now I see why so many people love it,” says one Allrecipes community member. “I can't believe how good it is.” “Just perfect,” raves [Olechka](https://www.allrecipes.com/cook/9868788). “Classic recipe, great taste, my favorite.” “Best borscht ever,” according to [KLaura Anderson-Bradfield](https://www.allrecipes.com/cook/26201354). “I have made many different beet soup recipes over the years. The addition of an acidic ingredient (tomato) still allowed the beets to shine but removed the heavy, sometimes too earthy taste common to borscht.” Editorial contributions by [Corey Williams](https://www.allrecipes.com/author/corey-williams/)
