Borscht is an Eastern European classic and total comfort food for me. It’s ridiculously easy to make and mainly involves cutting vegetables and putting them into a pot. You can make this soup in a pressure cooker/instant pot, or in a regular pot on the stove. Remember, there is no specific amount of each ingredient - it’s all about the size of the pot you’re using; aim for about ½ “stuff” (aka vegetables and meat) and ½ broth.
Borscht Ingredients:
Onions
Celery (stalks and leaves)
Cabbage (green or red)
Carrots (you can also use parsnips)
Sweet potato (or regular potatoes)
Beets
Big bunch of dill
1 small can tomato paste
Bay leaves
Kosher salt to taste
Water
Soup bones (ox tail, beef short ribs, turkey necks, chicken bones, marrow bones, etc.)
Directions for making Borscht:
Cut up vegetables into a uniform small dice (alternately, grate everything)
Add vegetables, meat, tomato paste, spices and water into a pot
If using instant pot/pressure cooker, cook at high pressure for 1-2 hours
If using a regular pot, bring everything to boil, reduce to a simmer and cook for 2-3 hours, adding water if necessary
Serve with sour cream, some fresh dill, and some fermented buckwheat bread toast!
