Borscht Recipes?

Philistine! I love 'em both.

Well, I've likely never had a good one -- just from the Ukrainian deli up the road in my old Chicago neighborhood. Grandma only passed down the piroshki.

Not a big fan of pot stickers either, though, and that's pretty much the same concept...




Incidentally, Grandma didn't do a borscht with piroshkis, either. She made this great thin tomato-lemon-dill soup to dip them in. Great complement to the cabbage-black pepper-ground roast beef of the piroshkis...

interesting. haven't heard of a tomato based sauce for piroski. my most favorite ones have sheep cheese and dill inside. very simple, sooooo good.

Mmmm, me hungry now.

My grandmother was raised by Polish immigrants in Pennsylvania. Don't know how much that affected how she learned to cook. Cooking also blandified by the fact that my grandfather had a section of duodenum removed when he was in the army and couldn't eat anything spicy or challenging...

Now I find out! I've been eating unreal, un-Ukrainian borscht all my life & didn't even know it!

I love the sour cream crap.
