Borsch - Famous Russian Beet Soup
In Russia soups are served as the first course at lunch or dinner.
The typical Russian soups are
borsch (beet soup),
schi (soup with cabbage),
rassolnik (soup with pickled cucumbers),
okroshka (cold kvass soup)
solyanka (soup with vegetables and pickled cucumbers) and
ukha (fish soup)
A great choice of soups in Russian cuisine is explained by the habit to have a soup at least once a day.
Soups can be made on meat, fish, mushroom, vegetables, milk or even kvas stocks.
Borsch is the most famous and popular Russian soup. But no one calls it soup in Russia, it's 'Borsch'.
The main ingredients are red beets, cabbage, potatoes and meat or chicken broths. Some people make 'vegetarian' borsch without any meat, only with vegetables.
Borsch has a very reach and delicious taste.
