Beetroot dressing. Recipe for winter borscht made from boiled beets

Do you cook borscht in jars for the winter? If not, then it’s in vain! An aromatic, rich and very tasty beetroot borscht dressing will become a real lifesaver, which will come in handy in many cases. And it’s also completely independent cold appetizer or spicy vegetable salad, which can be eaten simply with a crust of bread or served with meat dishes.

In addition to sweet and juicy beets, this dressing for borscht includes aromatic onions with expressive taste of bell pepper, red beauty carrots, a decent amount of fleshy tomatoes and aromatic garlic. Well, when all these seasonal vegetables(preferably from your garden) are combined together, resulting in a truly fabulous bouquet of taste, color and aroma.

Some people will probably accuse me of laziness: they say that at any time of the year you can buy all the ingredients for the dressing in the store. Why then waste time and fill up the gas station? Partly (but for the most part) this is true! Sometimes I’m attacked by such inertia that I’m too lazy to even go to the same store. Especially in severe frost, when there is a snowstorm outside and you really want something hot, tasty and satisfying. Borscht, for example.

And then I went down to the basement and brought home a magic jar vegetable preparation. I boiled water or quickly cooked meat broth on the bone, threw a couple of potatoes into the pan and opened a jar of dressing... Lavrushka, allspice, the fragrant dill, frozen in the summer, only waits for an hour in the freezer. Another 10 minutes and you can feed your homemade aromatic hot borscht! Isn't this happiness for sloths like me?

By the way, another advantage of this wonderful gas station. It is clear that in winter almost all vegetables are sold in stores, but just think about their quality, how they are processed for long-term storage and how much use remains in them. And in our chic jars, even though the food is canned, it is made from fresh food, sometimes only collected vegetables. That's it!

Ingredients:

(1.3 kilograms) (700 grams) (500 grams) (500 grams) (400 grams) (200 milliliters) (80 grams) (1.5 tablespoons) (30 grams) (50 milliliters) (0.5 teaspoon)

Cooking the dish step by step with photos:


Here is a set of products for preparing borscht dressing for the winter: beets, carrots, onions, sweet peppers, tomatoes, garlic, vegetable oil, granulated sugar, salt, 9% table vinegar and citric acid. A little more detail: pepper will suit any color, we take any oil (I used sunflower), refined, that is, odorless, fresh garlic can be replaced with dried (a tablespoon, I think, is enough), table vinegar replace with wine or apple in equal proportions, if the % is the same.


In fact, there is nothing difficult in preparing the dressing: the most labor-intensive part is peeling and chopping the vegetables. Of course, you can choose any convenient grinding method, but I highly recommend doing it as I write below. Believe me, borscht, in which beets are cut into thin slices, is several times tastier than that, where vegetables are chopped into coarse grater. Don’t be lazy, maybe you’ll thank me later. So, the most convenient way is to peel all the vegetables and then weigh them - I indicate the mass in the ingredients exactly in this form. We clean beets, carrots and onions. Remove the seeds and inner white veins from the peppers. Just wash the tomatoes and leave them alone for now.


To make the process go faster, I advise you to simultaneously cook vegetables in two containers at once. I have a large and deep frying pan (26 centimeters in diameter), as well as a thick-walled saucepan (4 liters in volume). If you use one vessel, it will take more time. So, we will fry all the vegetables, separately. Pour 100 milliliters into the pan vegetable oil, put it on the stove for medium heat- let it warm up. Meanwhile, chop the peeled onion into small cubes. Place in hot oil and fry, stirring occasionally, until soft, translucent, and then beautifully browned and pleasantly aroma.


While the onion is frying, chop Bell pepper. I cut it into small cubes, and if you want, you can cut it into cubes. Pour the remaining 100 milliliters of vegetable oil into the pan, heat it and fry the pepper. Don't forget to stir so it doesn't burn.


The onion is ready - it has become transparent, soft and slightly browned. Using a slotted spoon, transfer it to a separate container so that as much oil as possible remains in the pan - we will also fry the carrots in it.


Following the onion, the pepper arrived. You will hear by the smell when it is ready, becomes soft, and slightly browned. We also remove it from the pan with a slotted spoon and transfer it to the onion. There will be quite a lot of oil left in the pan - we will fry the beets in it.


While the onions and peppers were cooking, we quickly chopped the peeled carrots - not just on a coarse grater, but cut them into thin strips. Of course, if this is difficult for you, you don’t have to do this - just use a grater. But personally, I like carrots in this dressing (and then in borscht) in the form of thin straws. Place the vegetables in a frying pan and fry over medium heat until soft and browned. Stir so it doesn't burn.


And finally, our main character is beets! Not everything is simple with her either - you can’t get by with a grater. We will cut the beets into thin cubes. For a long time? Well, yes, not very fast, but it’s necessary, take my word for it. By the way, if you are still too lazy to cut vegetables the way I advise, think about the fact that this is not only a tedious and tedious task, but also excellent practice in cutting food. Can you boast that your knife skills are 5+? Well, go ahead - you will improve your skills. Place the beetroot sticks in a saucepan (there is still enough oil from the pepper) and fry for quite some time. high fire about 10-15 minutes. Beets take the longest to cook, but, again, young ones soften much more. faster than that one, which has already been lying for several months in the basement or on the store counter. That is why keep an eye on her condition. By the way, in order for the beets to retain their rich color, we need very little citric acid, which we immediately add to the chopped vegetable. However, it will also play the role of a preservative.


The carrots are already ready for dressing - they are almost soft and well browned. Turn off the heat and let it wait in the wings right in the frying pan.


Depending on the age of the beets, roasting may take different quantities time. I didn’t time it, but my young one became quite soft after about 20 minutes.


During this time, I chopped juicy red tomatoes - I simply chopped them into medium cubes. To remove the skin or not - decide for yourself. If the skin is hard, make a cross-shaped cut on each tomato (on the side opposite to the stalk) and place the vegetables in boiling water for a minute. After this, remove the tomatoes and place them in a bowl with ice water- the skin literally slides off on its own. And then we chop the tomatoes and add them to the beets. Close the pan with a lid and simmer the vegetables over medium heat for 10-15 minutes, so that the tomatoes are partially pureed and release their juice. Don't forget to stir.


Finally, it's time to add the rest of the fried vegetables - onions, carrots and peppers. Mix everything and simmer for 5 minutes under the lid.


After this, add salt and sugar, mix thoroughly again and cook again beetroot dressing for borscht, covered, about 15 minutes. I'm tired of reminding you that vegetables need to be stirred, right?

Cooking process:

1. Preparing vegetables.

I advise you to prepare all the vegetables at once, so as not to return to this stage later. They need to be washed and dried. Chop the onion with a knife. Peel the beets and carrots and grate them.

But if you have a free minute, my advice is to cut the beets into cubes and pass the carrots through a meat grinder.

Sweet peppers can be of any color. The work with it is simple - remove the foot and cut into small cubes.

But to chop tomatoes it is better to use a blender. In its absence, I do the same as with pepper.

2. Fry delicious!

Now we need to fry everything. My advice: use two utensils to save time.

The onion and pepper can be fried until golden crust in a frying pan. And at the same time, in a large saucepan, pay attention to the beets. When cooking it, I always add citric acid and sugar.

Cook the tomatoes in juice and oil after the onions and peppers. Next, mix all the vegetables in a saucepan. Add salt, vinegar and grated garlic and simmer over low heat for 20 minutes.

3. Winter supplies.

Place the dressing in sterilized jars. They can be of any size. However, I always use small ones. At the rate of one can per one pan of borscht. We roll them up with lids, turn them over and leave them warm for 1-2 days.

A delicious preparation for the winter is ready, and most importantly, quickly and easily. Real jam!

  • sugar – 2/3 cup;
  • garlic and black pepper at your discretion.

Cooking process:

1. Wash and peel the beets. Grate and cut into thin bars; I recommend the second option. The vegetable should be simmered in a large saucepan until soft, with vinegar and sugar.

2. Grate thick carrots on a coarse grater. If you have it small, you can cut it. We also wash and clean it first.

3. Cut the onion finely, preferably into cubes. We need to fry it with carrots. To do this, heat the frying pan and add vegetable oil. Stir occasionally.

4. When working with tomatoes, pay attention to the skin. If possible, it is better to grind them in a blender. If it is missing, we make a cross-shaped cut at the footrest and throw it into hot water for a few minutes.

After cooling the vegetable, remove the skin and chop finely. I cook them using a frying pan, but you can also stew them. The main thing is that they become soft and all the liquid evaporates.

5. Now we are all prepared vegetables add to the beets. You can also pour some water there if you see that there is not enough liquid. Add salt and chopped herbs. Simmer everything together for another 15 minutes over low heat.

6. We use sterilized jars and lids for sealing. We wrap ourselves in warm blankets for a day.

Borscht is a real “folk” dish in our country. We love this soup in different ways: with sour cream, garlic, beans and with donuts. But preparing it is long and troublesome. But savvy housewives came up with a brilliant solution - this is a ready-made dressing for borscht for the winter. They make it for every taste: with or without cabbage, with beans, eggplants, carrots, tomatoes and even apples.

Easy to prepare

Cooking borscht in half an hour seems like a dream, especially after a hard day at work. But if you have a jar of a special preparation saved up from the summer, just add it to the broth with potatoes, and a rich aromatic soup already on the table. In addition to speeding up the process of preparing borscht, this winter twist can also be used as an independent snack.

Product selection

The one who thinks what to do is mistaken borscht dressing for the winter you can use it from any vegetable stock. You can “recycle” crumpled or unsightly tomatoes, burst tubers of beets or carrots, but here it is important to follow two rules.

  1. Remove damage. All areas with traces of impacts, cracks, or any stains must be carefully cut out. There should be no areas with a changed structure left on the vegetables.
  2. Throw away the mold. If there is even a small “fluffy” area on the surface, the vegetable should not be consumed. Even if you cut off a moldy piece, the spores of this fungus are already living inside the vegetable and how deep they have affected the pulp is unknown. If you think that heat treatment destroys mold, you are mistaken: it requires caustic chemical substances. Therefore, throw away all affected specimens without regret.

If you don't follow these simple rules, then there is a high probability that your workpieces will “swell” or become moldy, and you will throw them away. This is in best case scenario. At worst, you may not notice signs of incipient spoilage and risk serious food poisoning.

  • garlic - 2 pcs
  • vegetable oil - 200 ml
  • chili pepper - 2 pcs
  • granulated sugar - 2 tbsp.
  • salt - 1.5 tbsp.

Let's start preparing beetroot for the winter at home by preparing the beets. Wash the beets, peel them from the top layer and tails, and then grate the bright vegetable on a grater with small holes.

Next, use a meat grinder to chop the tomatoes, but first prepare them for this. First rinse the tomatoes in water and then cut them large pieces. Only after this can the tomatoes be passed through a meat grinder.

Combine the prepared beets and tomatoes in one common deep container, then add vegetable oil to them. Next, move the vegetables to medium heat, and after boiling, boil the vegetable mass for one hour and thirty minutes.

After the specified time has passed, add chopped hot pepper and garlic cloves passed through a press to the boiling preparation. Following these ingredients, add granulated sugar and salt to the mixture. Mix all ingredients thoroughly and boil for about half an hour.

After thirty minutes, remove the vegetable preparation from the stove and pour it into sterilized jars, and then seal them hermetically.

Beets and carrots are chopped on a grater with large serrated blades. Cut the onion into cubes.

Cut the tomatoes into cubes, they may not be too small size, in the future everything will be extinguished. It is advisable to chop the parsley finely.

Jars with very tasty, aromatic, s rich color turn over with beetroot dressing prepared for the winter, wrap until completely cool. This preparation is stored at room temperature.

Recipe 6: beetroot dressing for the winter (step by step)

  • 500 g cabbage;
  • 5 tomatoes;
  • 2 beets;
  • 2 carrots;
  • 2 onions;
  • 2 sweet peppers;
  • 3 tbsp. l. Sahara;
  • 1.5 tbsp. l. salt;
  • 70 ml vegetable oil;
  • 100 ml water;
  • 2 tbsp. l. vinegar.

Sort through the vegetables for harvesting, select only ripe, strong, whole, without stains or damage. Rinse them and clean them.

The onion should be cut into small cubes. Another form of cutting is possible, which is familiar to you.

Take white cabbage. IN this recipe dressing for borscht for the winter is used savoy cabbage– it’s a little more tender and cooks a little faster. Chop the cabbage into thin strips.

Cut the tomatoes into slices and place them in food processor to get a tomato.

Grind the tomatoes to a smooth puree.

Instead of water and tomato puree You can use natural tomato juice. If the tomatoes are homemade, from the garden, then it is better to put a little less sugar– these tomatoes are usually sweetish.

Peel the sweet peppers and remove the stem. Cut into arbitrary small pieces.

Peel the beets and carrots and grate them on a coarse grater. You can also cut the vegetables into cubes, but in this case you will need to increase the simmering time.

Place all the chopped vegetables in a saucepan or saucepan and stir with a spatula. Simmer over low heat for 20 minutes, stirring.

After 20 minutes, add salt, sugar and vegetable oil, mix again. Simmer for another 20 minutes.

Add vinegar, stir and after 2 minutes remove vegetables from heat.

Jars for preserving vegetables must be sterile, as are the lids. Place vegetables in jars.

Screw the jars as tightly as possible with sterile lids or roll them up. Turn over and wrap up.

When the borscht dressing has cooled, move it to a cool, dark place for further storage.

Recipe 7: beetroot dressing for the winter (with photo)

  • beets - 1.3 kg
  • tomato – 700 gr
  • carrots - 500 gr
  • onion - 500 gr
  • sweet pepper - 400 gr
  • vegetable oil - 200 ml
  • sugar - 80 gr
  • salt - 1.5 tbsp.
  • garlic - 30 g
  • vinegar 9% - 50 ml
  • citric acid - 0.5 tsp.

Here is a set of products for preparing a dressing for the winter: beets, carrots, onions, sweet peppers, tomatoes, garlic, vegetable oil, granulated sugar, table salt, 9% table vinegar and citric acid. A little more detail: pepper will suit any color, we take any refined oil (I used sunflower), that is, odorless, fresh garlic can be replaced with dried (a tablespoon, I think, is enough), we replace table vinegar with wine or apple vinegar in equal proportions, if % same.

In fact, there is nothing difficult in preparing the dressing: the most labor-intensive part is peeling and chopping the vegetables. Of course, you can choose any convenient grinding method, but I highly recommend doing it as I write below. Believe me, borscht in which the beets are cut into thin slices is many times tastier than the one in which the vegetables are chopped on a coarse grater. Don’t be lazy, maybe you’ll thank me later. So, the most convenient way is to peel all the vegetables and then weigh them - I indicate the mass in the ingredients in exactly this form. We clean beets, carrots and onions. Remove the seeds and inner white veins from the peppers. Just wash the tomatoes and leave them alone for now.

To make the process go faster, I advise you to simultaneously cook vegetables in two containers at once. I have a large and deep frying pan (26 centimeters in diameter), as well as a thick-walled saucepan (4 liters in volume). If you use one vessel, it will take more time. So, we will fry all the vegetables, separately. Pour 100 milliliters of vegetable oil into a frying pan, place it on the stove over medium heat and let it heat up. Meanwhile, chop the peeled onion into small cubes. Place in hot oil and fry, stirring occasionally, until soft, translucent, and then beautifully browned and pleasantly aroma.

While the onion is frying, chop the bell pepper. I cut it into small cubes, and if you want, you can cut it into cubes. Pour the remaining 100 milliliters of vegetable oil into the pan, heat it and fry the pepper. Don't forget to stir so it doesn't burn.

The onion is ready - it has become transparent, soft and slightly browned. Using a slotted spoon, transfer it to a separate container so that as much oil as possible remains in the pan - we will also fry the carrots in it.

Following the onion, the pepper arrived. You will hear by the smell when it is ready, becomes soft, and slightly browned. We also remove it from the pan with a slotted spoon and transfer it to the onion. There will be quite a lot of oil left in the pan - we will fry the beets in it.

While the onions and peppers were cooking, we quickly chopped the peeled carrots - not just on a coarse grater, but cut them into thin strips. Of course, if this is difficult for you, you don’t have to do this - just use a grater. But personally, I like carrots in this dressing (and then in borscht) in the form of thin straws. Place the vegetables in a frying pan and fry over medium heat until soft and browned. Stir so it doesn't burn.

And finally, our main character is beets! Not everything is simple with her either - you can’t get by with a grater. We will cut the beets into thin cubes. For a long time? Well, yes, not very fast, but it’s necessary, take my word for it. By the way, if you are still too lazy to cut vegetables the way I advise, think about the fact that this is not only a tedious and tedious task, but also excellent practice in cutting food. Can you boast that your knife skills are 5+? Well, go ahead and improve your skills. Place the beetroot sticks in a saucepan (there is still enough oil from the pepper) and fry over fairly high heat for about 10-15 minutes.

Beets take the longest to cook, but, again, young ones soften much faster than those that have already been lying in the basement or on the store counter for several months. That is why keep an eye on her condition. By the way, in order for the beets to retain their rich color, we need just a little citric acid, which we immediately add to the chopped vegetable. However, it will also play the role of a preservative.

The carrots are already ready for dressing - they are almost soft and well browned. Turn off the heat and let it wait in the wings right in the frying pan.

Depending on the age of the beets, roasting may take a different amount of time. I didn’t time it, but my young one became quite soft after about 20 minutes.

During this time, I chopped juicy red tomatoes - I simply chopped them into medium cubes. To remove the skin or not - decide for yourself. If the skin is hard, make a cross-shaped cut on each tomato (on the side opposite the stalk) and place the vegetables in boiling water for a minute. After this, take out the tomatoes and place them in a bowl of ice water - the skin literally slides off on its own. And then we chop the tomatoes and add them to the beets. Close the pan with a lid and simmer the vegetables over medium heat for 10-15 minutes, so that the tomatoes are partially pureed and release their juice. Don't forget to stir.

Finally, it's time to add the rest of the fried vegetables - onions, carrots and peppers. Mix everything and simmer for 5 minutes under the lid.

At the end, add fresh garlic passed through a press or finely chopped. Let the dressing simmer under the lid for a couple of minutes. Taste for salt and sugar and season to taste if necessary. I don’t use fresh herbs in the dressing, as I add them to the beetroot soup itself (at the end of cooking).

Two or three minutes and our aromatic beetroot dressing is ready to be covered for the winter.

Jars with lids must first be sterilized - we do this while the dressing itself is being prepared. Each housewife has her own favorite method, and I do it in microwave oven- wash jars in soda solution, rinse and pour about 100 ml into each cold water. I steam them in the microwave at the highest power for 5-7 minutes each. For example, two jars will last 6-8 minutes, and three - 10 minutes. I boil the lids on the stove for about 5 minutes. Place the boiling beetroot dressing into jars.

Turn the jars upside down and wrap them in a blanket or rug. In this position, let the workpiece cool completely for the winter. Then we transfer it to the basement or cellar and store it until needed.

Total of specified quantity I get 4 full jars with a capacity of 0.5 liters and another incomplete one. Everything is calculated - an incomplete jar will immediately be used to prepare borscht for lunch. By the way, one half-liter jar of dressing is enough for a 4-liter pan (exactly the one that was used in the recipe).

Recipe 8: beetroot soup with carrots for the winter - preparation

It consists of beets, carrots, onions and sweet peppers. In winter you don’t have to fry it, just add a couple of spoons of this preparation to the pan with borscht. This dressing can be served at the table and as an appetizer. It goes well with potato side dishes.

  • Carrots 3 pieces
  • Onions 3 pieces
  • Salt 1 teaspoon
  • Beetroot 2 pieces
  • Vinegar 1 tbsp. spoon
  • Garlic 2 cloves
  • Sunflower oil 90 grams
  • Granulated sugar 1.5 teaspoon
  • Sweet pepper 3 pieces
  • Ground red pepper 0.5 teaspoons
  • Tomato paste 2 tbsp. spoons

Prepare necessary products. Take raw, limp vegetables. You will need a pan with a thick bottom for cooking, glass jars small volume.

Peel the beets and carrots. Remove the skins from the onions and garlic. Cut off the stem of the sweet pepper and remove the seed box. Rinse all vegetables thoroughly under water.

Grind the carrots on a coarse grater.

Cut the onions into small cubes using a knife. If you like the taste of this component in borscht, you can cut it into large pieces.

Chop the pepper into small cubes or strips.

Chop the beets into large strips.

IN aluminum pan add carrots, peppers, beets and onions.

Stir with a spoon until smooth. Add red ground pepper for spiciness, salt and granulated sugar.

Immediately pour out the sunflower oil and add tomato paste.

Stir the contents of the pan again until smooth. Place over medium heat and heat. Then cover with a lid and simmer the vegetables over low heat for 50 minutes. Every 8-10 min. stir the mixture as it sticks to the bottom.

Grate the garlic cloves on a fine grater or squeeze through a press.

First wash the jars with water and detergent. Then hold over hot steam for 4-5 minutes.

Remove containers and place on a towel. The jars should dry and cool.

Place the iron lids in boiling water for 5 minutes. Then dry on a towel or napkin.

Add chopped garlic and vinegar to the vegetable mixture. Mix the ingredients and simmer for another 20-25 minutes.

Don't forget to stir the mixture periodically during cooking. Then turn off the heat and take the jars.

Place borscht dressing in dry containers. Lightly tamp the mixture with a spoon so that it fits more tightly.

Fix tightly with your hands iron lid. You don’t have to turn the jars upside down, but simply cover them with a towel on all sides. Leave it in this position for about a day, then take it to the cellar. The result is a juicy and beautiful beetroot dressing.

One of my favorite preparations is hogweed or preparation for borscht for the winter. It simply incredibly simplifies and speeds up the process of preparing borscht (and as you know, this dish is quite labor-intensive).

In some cases, I simply save myself with this preparation, so I recommend that everyone who is a borscht fan like me should spare no time and effort. You will spend half a day, and then you will remember yourself (and maybe me) with gratitude, especially since all vegetables are tastier and much cheaper in season. I usually make two servings.

Recipe for preparing borscht for the winter

Ingredients:

all vegetables are weighed already peeled

  • 2 kg beets
  • 2 kg carrots
  • 2 kg onions
  • 2 kg tomatoes
  • 650 ml vegetable oil
  • 200 g sugar
  • 130 g salt
  • 100 ml 9% vinegar
  • 150 ml water
  • 20 allspice peas
  • 5 bay leaves

You will also need a tank or pan with a capacity of at least 10 liters.

From this quantity of products, 10 cans of 0.7 liters and 1 liter are obtained.

How to prepare vegetables for hogweed

Peel and wash all vegetables before weighing.

Wash and core the tomatoes.

  • Grate carrots, beets and onions on a coarse grater. I use a food processor for this purpose. I used to cut onions by hand, but it was very tedious and ended “disastrously”. I tried it once through a processor grater and liked it. Since then I've been doing just that. Mix the vegetables, everything will come together later anyway.
  • Pour vegetable oil into the bottom of the pan.
  • Transfer the vegetables into the pan as you chop them.
  • When all the vegetables are in the pan, pour a third of the total amount of vinegar and water into it.
  • Mix everything.
  • Turn on the heat under the pan, low at first, and when the vegetables give juice, increase the heat and bring the whole mass to a boil.
  • After this, reduce the heat so that a very slight boil is maintained, cover the vegetables with a lid and leave to simmer for 10-15 minutes. During this time, gently stir the mixture once or twice.
  • While the vegetables are stewing, grind the prepared tomatoes using a blender until smooth. I also cut them before, but during the cooking process the skin of the tomatoes comes off and you need to either remove it or peel the tomatoes first. As a result, I optimized the process using a blender.
  • Add the resulting tomato sauce, the rest of the vinegar, sugar, salt, allspice and bay leaf to the vegetables.

Important: vinegar cannot be replaced with anything (except perhaps vinegar essence, recalculating the quantity in advance), it acts here not only as flavoring agent, but also as a preservative and promotes better storage blanks.

  • Mix all products well using movements from bottom to top.
  • Bring the hogweed to a boil, cover with a lid, reduce heat and simmer until tender, at least half an hour.

Prepare jars and lids in advance or while sautéing vegetables.

How to prepare jars for canning

There are many different ways.

But in any case, wash the jars well, paying special attention to the neck, especially if the jars are not new. I use baking soda.

  • Sterilize the washed jars in any way convenient for you.
  • You can do this in a convection oven, you can put it in cold oven and turn on the heat to 160°, holding them at this temperature for 10 minutes.
  • I just fill the jars with boiling water and leave it like that until I need them.

I sterilize the lids in boiling water for 10 minutes.

Place the finished hogweed into jars, evenly distributing the thick and liquid parts.

Fill the jars as completely as possible. While laying out the hog parsnip, do not turn off the heat. Make it minimal so that the hogweed simmers quietly all the time.

Close the lids and turn the jars upside down, cover with a warm blanket or blanket and leave until completely cool.

You can store the borscht preparation at room temperature.

You can use hogweed not only as a preparation, but also as a side dish or salad.
