CLASSIC BORSCHT RECIPE (BEET SOUP)

Steps:
- Peel, grate and/or slice all vegetables (keeping sliced potatoes in cold water to prevent browning until ready to use then drain).
- Heat a large soup pot (5 1/2 Qt or larger) over medium/high heat and add 2 Tbsp olive oil. Add grated beets and sauté 10 minutes, stirring occasionally until beets are softened.
- Add 8 cups broth and 2 cups water. Add sliced potatoes and sliced carrots then cook for 10-15 minutes or until easily pierced with a fork.
- While potatoes are cooking, place a large skillet over medium/high heat and add 2 Tbsp oil. Add chopped onion, celery and bell pepper. Saute stirring occasionally until softened and lightly golden (7-8 minutes). Add 4 Tbsp Ketchup and stir fry 30 seconds then transfer to the soup pot to continue cooking with the potatoes.
- When potatoes and carrots reach desired softness, add 1 can of beans with their juice, 2 bay leaves, 2-3 Tbsp white vinegar, 1 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp black pepper, 1 pressed garlic clove, and 3 Tbsp chopped dill. Simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes and add more salt and vinegar to taste.
OLD TIME BORSCHT
Another recipe from the Company's Coming series. I didn't want to take the chance in losing it! This is one of my kids favorite soups. Very versatile. You can add or remove anything your family would like. I also make a large pot of this so I can freeze some.

Steps:
- I sometimes use spare ribs or soup bone. Put them in a pot. Cover with water. Bring to boil. Cover and simmer for about 1 hour or until meat is tender. If using hamburger, brown in soup pot then add water for soup.
- Add onion, carrot, cabbage, beet and barley. Simmer until vegetables are cooked.
- Add beet leaves, peas, salt, pepper, vinegar and dill weed. Simmer for 5 minutes more.
- Stir in whipping cream. If you don't have whipping cream you can use milk or nothing.
- Pass sour cream around the table so people can put a spoonful (or two) on top in their bowls. YUM YUM!

UKRAINIAN BORSCHT
This is a meatless (not vegetarian) Borscht, and even my husband, who MUST have meat with every meal, loves this! Sometimes we make it in summer and serve it cold. It's very tasty! It came from a cookbook many years ago, but I can't remember which one. And I've changed it over the years and I do my own thing, there is no need to measure any of the veggies, it always turns out wonderful. So eyeball it! (Your food processor will come in mighty handy for shredding all these veggies!) Enjoy!

OLD AMISH BORSCHT
There are as many recipes for borscht as there are ways to spell it. This basic recipe makes a very satisfying root vegetable soup, good any time of the year, but it is pure comfort food in the winter. A true borscht has the trinity of beets, cabbage, and potatoes, but it lends itself well to improvisation: use more or less of an ingredient, add different vegetables, try different spices, use a food processor to cut the vegies into tiny bits or leave them larger. You can substitute some or all of the water with chicken or beef broth. This soup has a nice aroma of dill weed, but if you want a very strong dill flavor, try adding some dill seed. Lean beef is good, but you can add or substitute kielbasa. Serve hot or cold. Refrigerates and freezes well. Serve with a dollop of sour cream, and a fresh baguette. Adapted from Old Amish Recipes by Bear Wallow Books (1992).

Steps:
- Cut meat into 1.5-inch cubes.
- Place meat in large stock pot, pour in enough water to cover, cover pot with lid, and bring to the boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to simmer, lid on, until meat is tender, perhaps 45-60 minutes.
- While meat is cooking, chop vegetables and place into large mixing bowl(s). Note: beets can stain your hands and clothing, so be careful.
- When the meat is tender, remove bone and spoon off any grease or marrow with ladle.
- Add vegetables and spices.
- Add enough liquid (water or broth) to total 12 cups, including what you cooked the meat inches.
- Cover pot and bring to the boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to a simmer. Cook for about 30 minutes, until vegetables are soft but not mushy.
- Adjust seasonings if necessary.
- Add a dollop of sour cream to each bowl when serving.

BARSZCZ (CLASSIC POLISH BORSCHT)
Most Slavic countries have their own form of beet soup, a winter staple across Central and Eastern Europe. Barszcz, the Polish variation, is usually served as a clear burgundy broth with bright, wintry flavors. It is sweeter and beefier than Ukrainian or Russian borscht, and much less textural: Most vegetables are strained after imparting their flavor, though the soup may include grated beets or morsels of meat. This recipe is adapted from "From a Polish Country House Kitchen," an anthropological cookbook by Anne Applebaum and Danielle Crittenden (Chronicle Books, 2012). Strain the vegetables entirely and sip the restorative broth directly from a mug, or serve the soup with sour cream and enjoy with pierogi.

Steps:
- In a large pot, combine the beets, bones, carrots, parsnip, onion, leek, celery, garlic and bay leaves, plus the mushrooms, peppercorns and marjoram, if using. Top with 14 cups water. (There should be enough water to cover all the ingredients.) Bring to a boil over high.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until the vegetables are very tender, 2 to 2 1/2 hours. As it cooks, use a small ladle to periodically skim off and discard any foam, impurities and fat that have risen to the top of the pot.
- Transfer the 3 whole beets to a cutting board to cool. Strain the soup through a colander set over a large bowl. Remove the bones and press the solids to extract all the liquids, then strain the liquid through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean medium saucepan.
- Once they're cool enough to handle, chop the reserved whole beets into small 1/2-inch cubes. Stir the diced beets into the soup and season with salt and pepper.
- Heat soup over medium until warmed, then stir in lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste. Serve very hot in small bowls or even large teacups, which you can pick up and drink. If desired, serve with a spoonful of sour cream. Keep refrigerated for up to 5 days.
