Борщ













Borscht is very well known Russian soup.  According to my cooking book, the origin of this soup is Ukraine, however it's made all over the Eurasia.  I found that the combination of beets and tomato is very tasty.  This version of Borscht is from southern Russia and made only from vegetable with Chicken stock.  It's best to make with pickled cabbage, the Russian salted cabbage is different from German Sauerkraut but they are more like Japanese stye of pickles "Asazuke"

これは野菜だけで作るコーカサス地方のボルシチ。ボルシチは元々ウクライナの郷土料理らしいが、ユーラシア大陸全土で作られる代表的な家庭料理。ビーツの甘みとトマトの酸味がうまく緩和してとても野菜だけだと思えない深い味わいになる。

にんじん、パプリカ、ビーツ、(本来は白にんじんも。それをごぼうで代用してもよい)をチーズ削りの荒目ですりおろす。タマネギとそれらの野菜を油で炒め、トマトソース入れる。野菜が十分に柔らかくなった後にチキンストックを注ぎ入れ、キャベツの塩漬け、ジャガイモを足す。
