Tuesday and it's so hot. I going to make beet borsht. i am going to grate three cooked beets and add some fresh lemon juice and sugar, (about 2 1/2 tbsp lemon juice, 1/2 of a small lemon) and 3 tbsp sugar) 3/4 tsp salt, white pepper, 1 tbsp dried dill, 3 tbsp fresh minced chives, 4 cups water. put it all together and cill. I am chilling it now cause I just made it. After it is chilled, I will add 1 cup of crème fraîche. I love this chilled soup and brings back memories of my childhood, my mother and both my aunt Stella and aunt Marion made this soup.

i love beet borcht.. I have a great receipe to share...I have vivid memories of you eating canned beets with sourcream, and it was so gross to me. It looked like you were eating guts....I was so surprised when I ate my first beet soup when I went to new york, and I loved it!!!!now I just love beets. I love to bake them and then toss them with balsamic viniger and olive oil and sea salt.
