BORSCH (((AUTHENTIC UKRAINIAN CLASSIC BORSCH)))
Borsch is the most popular soup of Ukrainian cuisine that got its name from the most important ingredient, beets, called in old Slavic, borsch. There are numerous recipes for making borsch, but this recipe is as authentic as they come. My maternal grandmother, Anna Buhal'tsev (Bell) Mersky, came from Smila Gubernyia, which is near Cherkassy and Kyiv in the Ukraine. TRUST ME WHEN I SAY THAT THIS IS AN AUTHENTIC RECIPE BROUGHT TO THE U.S. WITH MY GRANDMOTHER FROM THE UKRAINE! If you wish to e-mail me you can e-mail me at: leonetti00 at aol dot com

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Place the diced bacon or panchetta in a Dutch oven or stockpot and cook, stirring, over medium-high heat, until the fat begins to render, about 3 minutes.

- Remove both meats from the pan with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
- Add the onions and carrot to the fat in the Dutch oven or stockpot and stir to coat.

- Return both meats to the pot and add the water, salt and pepper and bring to a boil.
- Reduce the heat and simmer, partially covered, until the beef is tender, about 2 hours.
- Meanwhile, place the beets on a baking sheet and brush with the oil.
- Roast until tender and can be pierced easily with a fork or knife, about 1 hour.
- Remove from the oven and set aside until cool enough to handle.
- When the beets are cool enough to handle, trim the stem and root ends and remove the skins.
- Coarsely grate or chop and set aside.
- When the meat is tender and falling apart, add the beets, potatoes, cabbage, parsley, tomato paste and celery salt or seeds and simmer over low heat for another 30 minutes.
- Season with additional red wine vinegar, salt, freshly ground black pepper and sugar to taste.
- Ladle borsch into bowls and garnish with a dollop of sour cream and a pinch of fresh dill.
- Also, serve with Russian black bread.
UKRAINIAN RED BORSCHT SOUP
My friend's mother from Ukraine taught me this recipe for the classic beet soup. It's as authentic as it gets. It can be served vegetarian-style by omitting the sausage.
