• Vegetables for beetroot can be boiled in three ways: boil in water in a pan on the stove, wrapped in foil in the oven, put in a bag in the microwave.
• If you cook beetroot with meat from beet tops, do not forget to cut the stiff core from the tops, using only soft leaves for cooking.
• The most delicious beetroot soup with meat is obtained from young beets. You can cook from the old fruit, but then it is better to bake the vegetable before laying it in the soup. Some prepare beetroot from pickled and frozen vegetables.
• The present soup is much tastier, but if you managed to season it with sour cream, keep in mind that the seasoned product is stored for no more than 12 hours. Therefore, when preparing for the future, add sour cream only to the plates, and not to the pan.
