    Anna great video! I am third generation Canadian with Ukrainian heritage. My ancestors came from bukovina arriving in Canada in 1905. We grew up with borscht. Usually made in the fall when the vegetables were fresh. Beets, potatoes, carrots, celery, tomato, dill, onion. Salt pepper vinegar. Serving at the table always added sour cream and a splash of vinegar. The tradition has made it way through the years and immigration and a new country. Slava Ukrainian. Victory to Ukraine!!!

      Really wholesome video. Borscht has such a great taste and it looks so beautiful with the red colors, I made a new batch of borscht again after watching this video. Im from Denmark so I tried adding one of our specialties the Christmas Pork Sausage (with the weird Danish name "Jule Medisterpølse") which I cut into smaller pieces and cooked the whole thing for several hours to get that rich broth. And it just turned out to be such a good match. Incidentally the red color of the borscht and the white color of the sour cream matches my countrys flag colors too. And to think that the Ukrainian borscht version with the beets is what gives it that beautiful red color I find so awesome. It must certainly be fate! That tells me that we must NEVER give up support for Ukraine and never stop defending whats good against those dark forces that wants to rob free people of their freedom. Slava Ukraini!

    Thank You Anna. I can't wait to try my hand at this. My grandmother cooked all sorts of Ukrainian food and it was food for my soul because I felt her love in her food as well as everything she did. She had 9 kids and they were all such good people and I didn't realize it was partly because it's a genetic thing in most Ukrainians. I will visit and likely stay in Ukraine after the war. I was a pacifist but Putin has changed that. I'm 68 and disabled or I'd be there but I am starting a business I will bring with me. I'm fluent is Russian but learning Ukrainian. I don't want to speak the language of barbarians. Again Thank You

    Oh, I love this video!!! #MadeMeSmile #MadeMeGiggle You two are so cute-funny when you get together 😂😂This vid was homely and welcoming.. so I'm guess that's the magic of Ukrainian 🪄 Borscht ✨with a sprinkling of Anna-Sasha mystical warmth ❇
    Sasha, you have the best job ever there 👩‍🍳📹👀 and you make eating so much fun!
    🍲🍞 #DreamJob 👫 This was *very* informative, cosy, and *so* beautiful to hear about family traditions that have stood the test of time through the generations. This is the best family treasure anyone could hope to inherit - no one can take them away #FondMemories
    Mushrooms would be my substitute for meat because they have texture and are a nice hearty ingredient. I really liked the way they are grown and dried in your region... and it's all so natural too.
    Sister, we have a love of potatoes in common, they're quite filling and versatile.
    My fondest childhood memory of potatoes is when Autumn came around, when Dad was home, he would wrap potatoes up well, in tin-foil, and bake them in the hot embers of the garden bonfires; down by our fruit and veg plot. He never made Borscht, though he always liked to go out and get a whole salami sausage and bread, so I'm thinking those reminded him of the nearest thing to what you have there to accompany your marvellous Borscht!
    I *love-love-love* your apron, Anna 🌸🌼🌻🌺🌹🏵✴ I hope the temporary tourism trade hasn't affected the retail sales in such items... it would be lovely if we had some of these traditional things in our shops or at least easier to purchase directly from Ukraine.
    I honestly cannot recall ever having seen anything Ukrainian and made in/exported from Ukraine in our UK shops and stores... it would likely give a much-needed boost to Ukraine's economy until the tourist industry in Ukraine can get back to normal...

    Us Ukrainians are strong and our will to survive and thrive is what gives me hope. I pray for us all in this resilient community and for Anna our beautiful beloved hero! Things are getting ugly here in the USA where I live, and I’m so disappointed and disgusted with our politicians and our president who just keeps pissing around and not taking this war seriously. I’m someone who tends to vote more conservative, but not a hardcore party person by any means. With that said I cannot believe how Russian propaganda had literally become Republican talking points and positions in some cases and I don’t say that lightly. People like Tucker Carlson have literally said they want Russia to win and it makes my blood boil like this borscht! Anyways i have always loved borscht and my friend tells me he can tell I’m Ukrainian by how much I crave vinegar and sour crème😂 God bless you all and I know things seem kind of dark and difficult now, but we gotta have faith will will come through this fire like gold purified and shining victoriously!

      David, totally on point. I am very disappointed in many (not all) of my fellow conservatives here in the US who refuse to educate themselves and simply listen to talking heads (Tucker Carlson, knowledgeable on many subjects, is naively ignorant regarding foreign nations for the most part, and has never to my knowledge talked to an actual Ukrainian).
      The US is not only obligated to defend Ukraine because of the immorality of the Russian invasion, we are obligated because we signed the Budapest Memorandum (part of the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty) in 1994 PROMISING to defend Ukraine if the nation surrendered what was at the time the world's third-largest nuclear arsenal to Russia. Do people like Carlson and Vivek Ramaswamy consider that we effectively disarmed Ukraine, "guaranteeing" their security, then simply virtue-signalled military aid (we've sent less than 3% of our military arsenal to Ukraine, most of it old, near-end-of-service life weapons like Stingers, Javelins, M113 APCs, Bradley IFVs, even ATACMS)? Clearly they don't.
      For all Biden's tough talk, the ONLY modern weapons from our arsenal we have sent are three Patriot PAC-3 batteries and a few NASAMS units. Even the few dozen HIMARS/GMLRS, M777 howitzers and Excalibur shells, the cluster artillery munitions, and the few Abrams tanks (a whopping 39 from our arsenal of 5,500) we have supplied are over two decades old. We have sent NO operable aircraft/helicopters, NO ships, no THAAD, C-RAM, David's Sling (Israeli co-developed) or other modern air defense systems. We sent a bunch of trucks, HMMWVs, and the like, but most of these were due for replacement anyway (as are ATACMS and Bradleys).

    When my wife’s mother (born and raised in the Chernivtsi region) was declining from dementia in a Canadian nursing home, she started to reject all the food they served and would only eat the borshch my wife made. For at least two years, 2-3 times a week there was a big pot of borshch being made on the stove and the house smelled of beets and vinegar. My wife used her mom’s “insta-borshch” recipe, which cheats a bit by using ketchup. So borshch really is the food of life.

    There is a special Horticultural trick that can be done with a Beetroot:-
    If you take a Daffodil bulb and place it in the centre of a Beetroot, before putting it in the soil, when it starts to grow and flowers, it will be a Pink Daffodil,
    Depending on which colour variation it originally is,
    (usually white with yellow/orange trumpet in the centre or yellow with a yellow/orange trumpet in the centre, for example),
    It would be either a light pastel pink Daffodil with a pink/dark pink trumpet in the centre, or a pink Daffodil with a pink/dark pink trumpet in the centre,
    This is because the daffodil first takes in all the red nutrients from the beetroot, as the beetroot decays and the roots of the daffodil starts to take in natural nutrients from the soil around where the beetroot is, it will slowly start to return back to its original colours,
    This trick can also be done with freshly cut Daffodils, when placed in a vase with diluted Beetroot juice,
    It is usually done around Easter & Mothers Day,
    🇬🇧😎👍🏼

    I'm from Sicily but I love borscht, so I cook It regularly. Since we have not proper Salo, I use sicilian pork lard or Guanciale. I think that you can fry them with no oil in their own fat, along with onion on a low flame, add some milk and let all it melt to have a nice oil-less "soffritto", so the dish is more light. And, being italian, I add 1-2 spoons of tomato sauce (Sorry!😅)

      @@sergeipetrov_rzn I’m sorry, but you’re listening too much to the propaganda being played in your country. Ukraine does not have a Nazi problem- propaganda has taken a small number of cases and made it seem like there is a widespread problem when there isn’t. It’s just one justification of many to make people feel ok about fighting an otherwise peaceful country that wanted to live free and independent. And as far as NATO is concerned? NATO only exists because Russia does the very things that they’re currently doing in Ukraine! Look, I’m not Ukrainian, but I lived in Eastern Europe for a couple of years, and I know the sentiments that remain from having been ruled over by communist governments, which were set up and controlled by Russia. And yes, Russia, because as both you and I know, Russia was the central power that controlled everything during the years of the Soviet Union. If Russia didn’t do these things, countries wouldn’t feel the need to join an alliance like NATO. And Ukraine wasn’t actually very interested in joining NATO prior to the annexation of Crimea and the start of the war in eastern Ukraine in 2014. So that justification is simply hollow to me.
      Plus, Ukraine has the right to determine its future, its friends and alliances. They are a sovereign nation, and Russia needs to get used to that. They posed no threat to Russia, and honestly only do now because Russia decided to attack them.
      Look, I’m not Ukrainian, and I also don’t hate you for being Russian. But I do think you need to step outside of the propaganda and try to look at things from a more western perspective. Honestly, as a westerner, I am not interested in Russia being destroyed. I’m interested in Russia stopping their attacks on other sovereign countries and actually becoming democratic (which I hope you don’t believe Russia is, considering you’ve had the same leader for 23 years and counting.)
