Not all housewives believe that borscht needs active seasoning: due to the fact that the soup contains many components, the dish turns out aromatic and tasty even without spices.
However, properly selected spices will make the soup more refined and interesting.
When cooking the dish in the classic way, bay leaf is always added when working with the broth. After 15 minutes of cooking, it is removed.
For a slight piquancy, add black and red pepper. Also, don't forget about garlic and herbs.
To make the borscht brighter and more interesting, housewives can add khmeli-suneli. In this seasoning, you can find many interesting components that make the aroma of the finished dish rich.
Other cooks add Indian curry mix to the classic soup. Depending on the manufacturer, the taste and composition of the ingredients may vary.
It is worth paying attention to celery, which gives the dish a special flavor. You can also pay attention to coriander.
