I made it! The recipe was clear and easy to follow and it tasted great! My family and I enjoyed it, along with the rubbed garlic and sour cream on bread--yum! We said a prayer for Ukraine and took a moment to honor your grandmother and her legacy which you shared with us. Thank you!
I think I ate like for a whole week too. AND froze a lot of it and gave it to my family. The 12 cups doesn’t look like a lot until you throw in all the cabbage and potato’s. It’s soooo much food!
I'm of Ukrainian ancestry and my mom cooked all these things. I did not pay attention. But I made your recipe and it was amazing. Tha k you. I made enough to eat and then can 7.5 q
I looked up your recipe a couple of weeks ago and made this last week! I have never had anything like this so I thought that I wouldn't like it or that I would make it incorrectly. It is beautifully delicious and I truly love it! My family is picky, except for one of my children who tried it, so I ate most of it myself and for many days! I am making it again today for a group of ladies. I'm sure that they will enjoy it and appreciate that they are eating something authentic from a beautiful country that has all of our hearts right now. 🇺🇲 ❤ 🇺🇦
I made this because I wanted to have my own family recipe because my grandmothers recipe was lost. I added beef shank, oxtail and some pork belly to the beef stock. Anyway it came out soooo delicious. My Russian mother liked it and she said she hated borscht as a child. Apparently there’s some bad super sour borscht out there. But to each their own. lol Thank you for this recipe! I hope to pass it down to my own family one day!
I tried this recently from an Ukrainian coworker and I decided to look it up. It was one of the best soups I’ve ever had. I like your recipe and I’ll make it soon!!
My son LOVES borsch and we grew beets this year specifically to make it. This might be my favourite recipe yet and will be my go to from now on. Both kids (10 &8) had THIRD helpings 🤩. I made a double batch which filled my big stock pot and used chicken stock (from a concentrated paste) and kidney beans this time but I look forward to trying the different variations in the future. Now I have a happy full family and a freezer full of healthy meals. Thank you!
My husband is originally from Ukrainian moved a way before teenage. Im always looking for recipes i can surprise him with. This is a gem. And the all the family love it too. Any other gems i should know about?
I grew up liking my mom’s Russian borscht, and then my friend made me Ukrainian borscht and it was incredible. I didn’t know there were different kinds, so when I got back home and my mom made me thin, pink borscht with little flavor in it, I was super disappointed. I’m excited to try this! It looks a lot closer to what my friend made!
Absolutely perfect! my fiancé and his mum are from Ukraine and I wanted to make this for them, I wasn't confident, but your video was so brilliant and easy to follow, they said it was perfect! thank you so much for your video
I made this recipe and I felt transported back to Rivne and Kiev. This is really authentic. Add some garlic rosemary bread to enjoy alongside the borscht and you have a memorable meal. And if you can find some high quality salo with Dijon mustard, even better. Слава Україні
Just made this recipe, and I love it. It is different from all the other soups/stews I make and it will become a regular addition to my menus. Thank you for sharing it!
This and pickle potatoe soup are now my TOP 2 favorite soups... Just made two giant pots of your recipe and it's unbearably good 😢 gonna take in some for my coworkers tomorrow!
When my grandparents were still alive, they used to make it including the beet tops - that's how I remember it. I have yet to find any recipe that includes the beet tops.
I have watched your vid a few times now, and I'm ready... I am absolutely making it this weekend (my shopping list is prepared), and I am absolutely eating it with a bite of garlic and some grainy bread with garlic and sour cream! I have been known to crunch down a clove of garlic when I feel like I'm getting a cold, so maybe I'm a little bit Ukraine in my ancestry! :D
I hope you enjoyed this borsch recipe! I do love to buy it on a garlic clove. It might sound odd but I think when combined with the right food it tastes so good!!!
Огромное спасибо за рецепт моего любимого настоящего ароматного и вкусного украинского борща .Елена, а вы не пытались приготовить борщ в скороварке Instant Pot?
New to your channel. I love the sheer joy you cook with. I don't generally like beets, but this soup looks so good that I have to try it. Thanks for the video.
Live in Canada . Met a couple thirty years ago and she was born in Poland . Lucky me , she gave the recipe to me . Never she put all that other stuff in it . Beets , Onion , little garlic , That's it . And the Polish love their HAm . She diced /cubed ham ( not minced ) .Gotta see the ham and it must be slightly chewy . Voila
@@ifoodreal hello there do you sell cook book? For my entire time searching here on YT i just finallly see your impressive extremely awesome delicious dish. I wish I can get a cookbook that I can follow your footsteps with your permission to cook some of your bestiest recipies.
I'm American, I love beets, I've heard of Borscht, and want to try it. Looking for cheap to make veggie based soups like Borscht and Gazpacho always wondered if the Borscht was served cold? Is it easy on the acid? ❤
@@ifoodreal thank you. I've never seemed to have a problem eating beets, and as for eating them hot, that will be a first. I can't wait to eventually give it a try.
I too personally like cabbage to be added the last, so that it remains crunchy. But some people like very soft cabbage in their borshch, and that's fine. Borshch has hundreds of variations, so there's no wrong borshch.
Borscht can be made with various ingredients, but traditionally, this way is not it. Ukraine is a poor country. The ingredients are usually much more simple. You can use pork for a tasty soup base, but traditionally it won’t have more than beets and maybe onions in it.
Почти все правильно в приготовлении, только картошку кладут в начале, чтобы она почти сварилась и потом только капусту и позже всего, зажаренные на сковороде лук и свекла. Свеклу трут на терке с крупными ячейками.
Ой беда. Это не украинский борщ! Абсолютно . Скорее всего это русские щи. У украинского борща абсолютно другой рецепт ,приготовление . Жаль ,что ,очевидно русская женщина ,пытается этот русский суп выдать за украинский борщ. Мы смеялись всей семьёй. Слава Украине!
