How to Make Authentic Borscht Recipe (Красный борщ)

This is a genuine Russian beet and cabbage soup recipe, easy, delicious and heartwarming. Beef, cabbage, beets, potatoes, and no strange additions or "shortcuts" you find in many borscht soups today - Borscht is so popular, that it was even eaten by Soviet cosmonauts in space. With roots from Ukraine, it's popular in Russia, Poland and across Eastern Europe. Music is called From Russia with Love by Huma-Huma.

This is the only borscht recipe I'll ever follow. Found this a few years ago and I still cook it the same way, could never follow another one. You're the best, just cooked this one again today. Thank you!

Hi, I've just viewed about 15 different Borscht videos. I'm choosing to use your version because you included the beet greens. I always try to never waste a thing. The only veggies I have right now is literally everything to make Borscht! Thanks!

I love how this recipe is far more thick and looks very flavorful from other recipes. Thank you!!

I loved cooking along with you. Your voice reminds me of my uncle’s who passed away last winter. We always talked about food and cooking, so I must have watched this at least a dozen times since first making your recipe. Hugs! Thank you.

Looks wonderful. I love borscht, but only had it twice, in a deli in Bloomfield hills, Michigan. With the thickest juiciest corned beef sandwich ever! I miss food like that...I'm stuck in South Carolina! I'm gonna make your borscht, thank you!

I made this for the second time yesterday. Instead of grating the beets I cubed them. I added some acv, cloves, cinnamon, caraway seed, salt and pepper on top of the dill and bay leaf. How I've never tried this before last week, is beyond me because not only is it filling and warming, it's delicious.

no one told me how filling this was, I made some tonight and went back for seconds but by the time put a spoonful into my mouth of the seconds, I was so full I couldn't eat it anymore lol I loved it, I love it, it's so tasty and I can't believe how satisfying it is, there wasn't even any meat in it and it was so delicious <3

This makes me feel homesick. I love my grandmother's Borscht. Thank you for making this video.

Is that "March Slav" playing in the background? My maternal grandmother (from Ukraine) made this all the time. Sometimes she tossed in a few chunks of beef brisket to add a little more depth, with her secret ingredient for tenderizing the beef and making everything about the borscht taste better: "citric (or sour) salt" instead of red wine vinegar (I think). I can't find sour salts in any store near me. However, spaseba balshoy for showing how to make this scrumptious borscht!
