Description
If you happen to have small young beets with their greens, you can make buryachynka. To prepare buryachynka, besides the beet greens you will also need sour milk. So the recipe is also a good fit for those who don’t like throwing food away for no reason. But if you don’t have that kind of milk at home, you can simply use kefir. By the way, you can even add nettle to the dish. Serve the appetizer with the meal.
