What spices are suitable for borscht: not all housewives know
Almost every housewife cooks borscht because she wants to please her family members with a rich and healthy soup.
And if we add spices to other first courses without thinking, then in the case of borscht everything is a little more complicated.
The thing is that the dish is already rich and aromatic, so the wrong seasonings can ruin the soup.
What spices can be added to borscht
First of all, it is worth mentioning the classics - bay leaf and black pepper. They are added to all first courses, so borscht will not be an exception. They perfectly saturate the broth, so you should not refuse them.
Paprika "looks" great in borscht, and you can use absolutely any type of spice.
If you and your family don't mind a little spiciness, be sure to add some chili powder. A little spiciness will only enhance the borscht.
An excellent choice would be celery, which should be added to the soup at the stage of cooking the broth. At the same time, you can add large and hard stems of parsley and dill, which will then need to be removed.
Garlic is also ideal for borscht.
This set of spices is quite enough to prepare a delicious borscht of excellent quality.
