I'm a pretty open-minded person when it comes to food. I'll try just about anything once. But if I am being honest, the national dish from our host country of Ukraine this week doesn't exactly strike me as something that I am going to run out and grab. ![]() The soup is called Borscht and it is not only the national dish of Ukraine, but it is also quite popular all across Eastern Europe and Russia. The is a sour soup made with red beetroots (which gives it its very unique and distinctive color). It can be served hot or cold, and often times it is topped with a dollop of sour cream and a sprig of dill (neither of which I am a fan of...so maybe that is part of my hesitation towards borscht). I do solemnly swear however, that if I am ever lucky enough to travel through the beautiful country of Ukraine -or- I am somewhere or with someone who can make an authentic version of it that I will 100% give it a shot...just please hold the sour cream and dill. Want to try making it at home yourself? Here is an easy to use website with a simple recipe to follow. And once you go for it, let us know how it is by tweeting at us.
