Beetroot and Apple Soup – A New Addition to My Beet Soup Repertoire
If you had asked me a few months ago about beetroot soup, I could have probably come up with only three types:
- Traditional Polish clear beetroot soup “barszcz” which can be served with little dumplings,
- Ukrainian borsch, with the addition of many vegetables, and
- A cold beetroot soup with yoghurt called “chłodnik”.
However, this recently changed when I went to a restaurant and tried an absolutely delicious and different Beetroot and Apple Soup.
I liked it so much that I decided to re-create it in my kitchen.
It wasn’t that easy because the soup in the restaurant was liquidised. That meant I didn’t know any of the ingredients other than the beetroot and apples.
I am not sure if the taste of my soup is similar to the one tried in the restaurant. But nevertheless, I was extremely happy with my delicious Beetroot and Apple Soup!
