Beet Soup with Veal and Soy Sauce
Soups • Russian
Description
The flavor of beet soup, crafted by the chef of a popular American restaurant, is masterfully balanced, maintaining the perfect blend of tradition and originality. The traditional elements include a silky beet broth, potatoes, and fresh cucumber cut into old-fashioned julienne strips. The original twist comes from boiled veal, soy sauce, and — ta-da! — Japanese rice vinegar, which immediately creates a connection between this beet soup and miso soup.
