Our exchange student from Khabarovsk (far eastern Russian), a Jew of Ukranian makes an interesting variation of a beet/beef borscht with many many vegetable additions (one various includes peas, corn, tomatos). When he is at home, he lives on the stuff (breakfast, lunch, after-school snack).<BR/><BR/>I think the cabbage/beef version is more of a Polish iteration, (one of my grandmothers is from outside Warsaw, is not Jewish, and makes a cabbage beef soup in the winter that is filling, yet nothing like the delicious HOT beet based borscht we serve down here in Helena).<BR/><BR/>Thank you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9956110.post-24804928541517591232006-12-19T17:50:00.000-07:002006-12-19T17:50:00.000-07:00How do you spell "spaceeba" (Russian for "thank yo...How do you spell "spaceeba" (Russian for "thank you")?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9956110.post-24957425921268450632006-12-15T07:54:00.000-07:002006-12-15T07:54:00.000-07:00Anon;

I will try out the soups at the uptown; thanks for the tip.<br /><br />And David, yuck? There is nothing better than a cold bowl of beet borscht on a hot day; especially with a slice of cold baked potato, a dollop of sour cream; gives me warm fuzzies just thinking about it. And, I happen to like gefilte fish, too (as long as it is homemade).Treasure State Jewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01385095688326371682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9956110.post-77817835586267615552006-12-14T20:20:00.000-07:002006-12-14T20:20:00.000-07:00Borscht - YUCK!
