In my family Borscht is made a couple of ways. It’s either blended and served cold with a dollop of sour cream and looks like an alarming bowl of magenta ink certain to stain lips and teeth bright pink, or it is served as a beef shank-beet stew that is chunky and hearty \u2013 also with a big ol’ dollop of sour cream.<\/p>\n

Double Beet Borscht Soup<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Here’s my easy version of the blended borscht (and I serve it hot), but with both red and golden beets cooked separately. Ladle the two soups into one bowl and give it a swirl with a knife tip.<\/p>\n

The micro greens on top are called ‘bull’s blood’. But not to worry, they are really just beet shoots.<\/p>\n

I made this particular soup (pictured above) meatless and dairy free for my vegan customers, but it can certainly be made with chicken or beef stock and topped with cr\u00e8me fra\u00eeche or sour cream. Just be careful about not<\/em> blending the sour cream in unless you don’t mind eating a soup the color of pepto bismal.<\/p>\n

These beets were from Pie Ranch and were fresh and sweet so I didn’t add too much spice wise: cinnamon, cumin, coriander, and bay leaf plus a little sherry vinegar to add a touch of acidity to balance the sweetness.
