Borsch is killer. I love it. I used to work near a deli that the owner made homemade borsch daily. It was awsome.

My grandmother would make it. I never cared for it as a kid but it is something I would eat now, well hers anyway. There was nothing solid in it so it was almost like a beat juice soup. And I wouldn't want any crap on top and hers didn't have those floaty things in it. Hers was very healthy. I keep looking for her reciepe book but my Aunt has hid it on me and won't tell me where it is.

I used to ask my Grandma to buy me a porsche (car) and she would make borsh and then say "look I made you a porsche" Then we would laugh.


ohh I just at a raspberry and a sip of Hot chocolate. Good combo Very Happy

Russian and ukrainean meat-based food is too 'heavy', with much oil, grease, butter etc. Pickled stuff is good though, fish dishes too. But i prefer mediterranean or japanese cuisine.
