RUSSIAN BORSCHT
I immigrated to the United States from western Russia in 1998. When I made friends, I found that many people had heard of Borscht, a traditional soup made with fresh beets, but few knew how to cook it. So I prepared this recipe from my grandmother, and everyone seemed to like it.-Svetlana Chriscaden, Falconer, New York

HUNGARIAN BORSCHT
This Borscht is not really Hungarian, but tastes like it should be. It has a very unique taste and is exceptionally delicious. I created this recipe 16 years ago and it is part of my cookbook that I published. Most everyone could not believe how well the Kraft Catalina dressing enhances the soup flavor.

BORSCHT II
Borscht is like chili; there's no one recipe for it. This recipe is somewhat unusual because it does not have cabbage; the addition of lime juice and sugar may also not be traditional. My mother did get it from a Russian coworker. It is the borscht I grew up with and I love it.

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:
- To make the stock, put the meat, whole onion, bay leaf and 2 litres of lightly salted cold water in a large saucepan. Cook over a very low heat for 1 hr 30 mins or until the beef shin is soft and falls apart easily - this can take up to 3 hrs. Skim off the scum with a spoon from time to time. Break up any larger pieces of beef into the broth, remove the whole onion and discard.
- Add the potatoes to the borscht, season well with salt and pepper and cook for 10-15 mins until tender. Meanwhile, heat the sunflower oil in a large, deep frying pan. Add the diced onion and carrot, and cook over a medium heat, stirring, until the carrot is soft and is about to start caramelising.
- Add the beetroot and cook for around 5 mins, stirring occasionally. Add the red pepper, if using, and cook for another 2 mins, then add the tomatoes and prunes, stir, then increase the heat and boil to reduce slightly, before adding everything to the borscht.
- Add the shredded cabbage and the kidney beans, and cook for 7-10 mins or until tender. Serve with a dollop of sour cream or crème fraîche, lots of chopped dill and some crusty bread.

AN UNUSUAL BORSCHT
An combination of beets, squash, and yogurt makes a sweet yet savory soup that is quite filling. Slow roasting the vegetables takes quite a bit of time but is well worth it for the intense flavor it gives to the borscht. In a pinch I have substituted buttermilk for the yogurt and it worked well.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
- Wash the beets. Remove the green tops. Cut the beets in half.
- Cut the squash in quarters and remove the seeds.
- Place the beets and squash cut side down on a baking sheet. Sprinkle vegetables with 1/4 cup water.
- Roast the vegetables for 1 1/2 hours or until very soft. Turn the vegetables halfway through cooking and add more water if necessary.
- Remove vegetables from the oven and let cool 10 minutes.
- Remove the squash pulp from the skin and puree it in a food processor or blender.
- Peel the beets, cut them into small pieces, and add them to the processor.
- I find when using the blender to puree this that I have to a small amount of water to each group of vegetables to keep it from jamming.
- Puree until smooth.
- Add the yogurt and puree again.
- Add 1/3 to 1/2 cup cold water and 1 teaspoon salt. Blend until smooth and creamy.
- This is excellent both hot and cold.
- Garnish with additional yogurt, or with beet greens that have been steamed and chopped.
