Here is the recipe for Borcht! Everyone makes it a bit different, but this is how I do it. I will write about my trip later and post a few pictures.
Start with a pot according to the amount you want to make.
I usually make about 2 gallons so I'll tell you that size.
You can boil a bone to get broth or add cooked meat and bouillon or you can
make it meatless.
Fill pan 1/3 full of cubed potatoes about 1 1/2 in. cubes fill with water
or broth. add salt to taste Simmer until Potatoes are soft, Add 1/2 head
cabbage very finely sliced. Meanwhile in a frying pan brown 1 diced onion
in 1 T. oil, add 1 grated carrot when onion is yellow, fry a little add 1
grated fresh beet or about 5 small canned beets grated. Fry a while. Add 1
small (8 oz.) can tomato sauce. and one or 2 cans water. Simmer about 5 min.
Add to large pot. Simmer about 15 min. Add a bay leaf and 2t. dillweed
Serve with sour cream on top.
Hope this understandable!
Some people also put a little rinsed sauerkraut in instead some of the
cabbage.

    Well, I just made the soup and I have to say it is a family favorite. I've had it before but my husband and children have not. Your recipe is very quick and easy with a slow cook taste. We loved it. Thanks for the post.
