How me and @Maryink13 spent year 2022 in pictures.

“The year was actually off to a good start. I just finished the first season of last podcast series, was running around the city sampling undiscovered food and working on a few delicious collaborations” 2/many

>THE BORSCH MAKING THREAD<

I this thread I am going to post everything you need to know to make borsch at home. What is even more important - I will explain details about every ingredient of the soup. It will take 48 hours. After I’m done you’ll be able to creat your own recipe! >BORSCH INGREDIENTS - GARLIC<

Garlic is among the core ingredients of borsch. Anyone who has lived on a farm or knows anything about Ukrainians can confirm this. Garlic is grown all over the country and used in most of our recipes, unless the food is adapted for city restaurants
