Fresh beef borscht
Description
Hearty and aromatic soup. Fresh borscht with beef is served with sour cream, garlic, and hot chili pepper. Each serving should contain a piece of meat. Beef brisket is usually used for borscht. I almost always prepare the broth the night before. I run an organized household and generally know what I'll be cooking the next day. This saves a lot of time, as making broth takes a long time, but if it's already ready, the borscht only takes 20 minutes to cook! Good luck, and the soup is ready to serve.
