The weather has turned, and hand in hand with sweater weather, comes soup season. Few soups satisfy my craving like a big, steaming bowl of borscht. Topped with a healthy dollop (or swirl) of yogurt, a sprinkling of fresh dill and served with slices of crusty bread to wipe the bowl clean.

CopperBond 6qt Stockpot
In a 6 quart stock pot add the broth, bay leaves, and bring to a boil.
Once boiling, add the cabbage, cover, and return to a boil. Reduce heat to low and cook for 20 minutes!
Preheat a 12.5” non-stick skillet on medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons of oil. Once the oil is warm, add the onions, carrots, celery, red pepper, and sauté for 5 minutes. Add beets, remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, tomato paste, salt and cook for another 3-4 minutes.
Transfer sautéed vegetables into the stock pot along with the potatoes. Cover and bring to a boil, then cook on low heat for 20 minutes.Turn off heat. Then add the vinegar, sugar, garlic, and black pepper.
Stir and let borsht sit for 10 minutes to allow flavors to meld into each other. Stir in dill and adjust seasonings to taste. (I occasionally add a little more vinegar). Serve with a dollop of plain yogurt, more dill, and a crusty loaf of bread. Enjoy! Or as my Baba would say jó étvágyat
