Beet borscht is a traditional cold vegetarian soup common in Russian, Polish, Ukrainian, and Jewish cooking. This one is in honour of the Julian Calendar's Christmas Eve Celebration tonight and is provided in a youtube by Maria of Healthy Glow website.
Besides the delicious raw soup recipe, she provides an interesting "sour cream" recipe using zucchini and raw sesame seeds!
This soup is warming in cold weather and very healthy. It also makes a lovely, flavorful summer soup. Like Dr. Joel Fuhrman does with some of his soups, Maria juices her carrots and beet-- this makes for a really tasty soup base. Find the recipe in the video below:
