Borscht is a hearty beet soup that is loaded with a variety of vegetables (largely in season during cold weather). It is wholesome, flavorful, healthy and perfect for the fall and winter seasons.

There is nothing like a warming bowl of this purple-red hearty soup with a spoonful of sour cream on top. It makes you feel cozy and warm and makes your home smell awesome. No wonder it’s a favorite in Slavic countries with their cold winters!

Borscht is nutrient-dense and yet very comforting, so I normally take more than one serving at a time (to be completely honest with you, I might have had two and a half bowls of it today).

Borscht (pronounced bawr-sch) is also spelled borch, borsch, borshch, borsht, bortsch, and борщ which are all different spellings of the same word.

It looks so pretty and is festive enough to serve it for holidays, quick and simple enough to enjoy for a weekday meal. In fact, in Slavic nations, it is a traditional lunch dish (as are many soups).

While in some parts of the world soup is a winter staple, borscht is eaten all year round in Slavic households. There are many variations of it depending on what is in season.

You can even make a delicious chilled borscht in the summertime that uses buttermilk instead of broth as a base and is served with hard-boiled eggs.

It is considered both Russian and Ukrainian, with deep roots in cultures of both countries and becoming a beloved staple throughout Eastern Europe.

The main difference is that in Ukraine you serve it with pampushki (Ukrainian garlic bread) and garlic-infused lard (salo). In Russia it is more common to eat vegetarian borscht and serve it with rye bread. It works great with spelt bread as well.

While some recipes use meat, I like to make my borscht vegan, or at least vegetarian. Many households across Eastern Europe do the same, making it a very budget-friendly recipe.

Each family has its own borscht recipe. If you ask 1000 Ukrainian housewives about how to cook Ukrainian borscht, you will get 1000 different versions (and all of them will be delicious!).

While there is no one authentic recipe, there are traditional ingredients (and they are combined in a variety of ways, so each pot has its own personality).

Some add mushrooms, some beans, others smoked ham or fish. Borscht can be made with meat broth, may be vegetarian or vegan, may be with tomatoes or tomato paste, bell peppers, celery, and can even be eaten cold.

Season with salt and pepper to taste and enjoy it with a slice of toasted rye bread or pampushki (Ukrainian garlic bread)!

Simple Beet Soup

Red beets give this soup its ruby color and sweetish flavor. To make it even more intensely colored I add lemon juice to the soup.

To make your borscht vegan, simply omit the sour cream or use vegan substitutes. As you can see, this healthy beet soup is loaded with veggies for delicious flavor!

Borscht is nutrient-dense and can be a part of a calorie-controlled diet. It contains a variety of vegetables like carrots, onions, beet roots, cabbage and more. These veggies are rich in antioxidants and vitamins.

Beets will stain your hands, so be sure to wear kitchen gloves! The easiest way to prepare beets is to peel them and grate them in your food processor or on a grater. You can also cut them into fine slices.

Borscht can be stored in the fridge for about 5 days in an airtight container. The beet soup will stain plastic, so glass is best. Feel free to store it in the pot were it was cooked.

Yesterday’s borscht tastes the best, so it makes sense to make a big batch. The flavors intensify as they have time to combine and it’s a dish that tastes better each time you serve a new bowl.

After you make your beet soup, let it cool completely. Then ladle it into your storage bags. Freeze it in sealed bags or containers for up to 2 months.

Serve this vegetarian borscht with (vegan) sour cream and crusty rye bread. It’s common to serve Russian pickled tomatoes and Russian dill pickles along with it. If you like it sour, try adding Georgian plum sauce (tkemali) in your borsch to mix things up a bit.

MAKE IT OIL-FREE: Instead of sautéeing veggies in oil, add a bit of hot water/broth to the veggies and steam them. Add water as needed to keep the vegetables from sticking to the pot.

I made recipe as directed, but found the called-for cooking time was not enough to soften the beets and potatoes especially. I think next time I will precook the beets whole in my I/P then peel and dice, adding to the soup towards the end. It’s still simmering so I haven’t eaten it properly, aside from testing the beets.
