My husband is Ukrainian and I made this tonight for him, as I do not like borsch. He said it was good and ate two bowls. It is not like the ones made from fresh beets and garden vegies in the fall, but he enjoyed it with fresh cream. It is a rather thick soup and the cream helps to make it more "soupy" in quality. Thankyou for this easy recipe.
