Isn't borscht the perfect holiday soup? I made this ages ago now, but I remember it fondly. It was a great use of some CSA root vegetables including beets, parsnips, carrots and cabbage (not a root vegetable, I know). I used this recipe, and even made a special trip to the store for sour cream and fresh dill for garnish. It was very worth it. One thing I did, after consulting with Nick, was to puree about half of the soup to make it a smoother consistency. I mixed the pureed soup with the non-pureed for our finished bowls. It was delicious.
