- 40 minutes to make
- Serves 6
Our family loves borscht of any kind, , varietes made with beets, cabbage, potatoes, short ribs etc. Recently we ate at a restaurant that had this silky smooth borscht with delightful flavor, slightly savory, a hint of sweetness, nothing overpowering. Read more Unusal for beet borscht I was able to replicate the recipe at home which my family thought it was just as good or even better! Serve each bowl with a small hot cooked red skinned potato if desired See less
