    Thank you for this, looks simple and easy to make. Because I’m Eastern European (Polish) I know little about borscht ;) the classic borscht is always made with beats and beat juice but beats need to be naturally fermented and the juice from this fermentation is used to make the soup. This juice is called kwas and we kids used to drink it back home, is super healthy. To get the same taste minus the health benefits people add vinegar to borscht.

      Thank you for sharing you're kwas --- I'm into fermentation these days and going to try and make this. Never heard of it before your share. Thank you again! Tonight I'm making Hong Kong Borscht but I'm adding either some apple cider vinegar or white wine vinegar to the recipe.

    My mom was Russian and always made Borscht but, not in the way most people think, she never used beets. She always said Borscht is like spaghetti sauce "every single person makes it different". She basically used everything you did minus the beef, garlic, and ginger. She would always throw in an extra type of vegetable either snap peas, beans or brussel sprouts depending on the season. Thank you so much for doing this video, it made me think of my mom who has now been gone for 9 months. Love you guys and you have helped me through a very difficult time, I always look for your notifications and your videos always make my day ❤️

    The history of how Borscht got into Hong Kong is quite interesting.
    The Russians you've mentioned that moved to Shanghai (like some of my ancestors) moved to Shanghai during the war. Shanghai was the only place that didn't required a visa for us, Jewish people.
    If you check about the Shanghai ghetto it will give you plenty of history. Once the war came to an end, some of the people moved to Hong Kong in order to move from there to other countries.
    Some, very few, stayed in HK. Some even started restaurants. If you are actually familiar with Hong Kong, Jimmy's kitchen is one of them.
    Long story short, Borscht is a vegetarian dish. But pork, something Jewish people do not eat, was and still is a staple in Chinese food. It was the local people who did the change, incorporated pork into the soup.

    Thanks for all your videos and great recipes. I have two tips to share with you - try a piece of that foamy shelf liner from the Dollar Store under your cutting board and it won't slip. While you are there - see if you can find a round cutting board. They sell them at Dollarama here in Alberta - they are bamboo and have a cheese logo on them. I put those little fuzzy pads you put on the chair legs to protect your floor on the logo side, flip it over and then I can put my Instant Pot on it. I tend to set my Instant Pot on my stove top and have heard many people say they have burned their pot when they accidently turned on their stove - so now I have an added protective layer. I have made so many of your recipes and I especially enjoy your cultural cooking recipes - I have my own Dude and he is an eager taste tester!

  • @SteamPunk-xp2uv
    @SteamPunk-xp2uv 5 лет назад +3

    Looks absolutely yum! BTW: Put a folded damp tea towel under the cutting board to keep it from moving around. Dry dishcloths make great hand protectors, as they mould nicely around bowls. No more balancing scalding hot food on a trivet, and trying to do "The Taste". Love ya'll's show!

  • @pamwhittemore3476
    @pamwhittemore3476 5 лет назад +1

    Buying roast for stew meat is a great idea, I never thought of that! I like to buy roast meat, slice it however thick I want and fry or broil like steak. My Dad used to do that. Sometimes I use Adolf meat tenderizer, but I fry a little piece without tenderizer to see how it is going to be, tender or tough. Most times it is tender and I don't need the tenderizer. Mmmm, so good! I'm going to try your recipe, it looks so good!

    @lissarice1876 4 года назад

    Found you while looking for borscht recipes. I made the beet one, but yours will be next. For the difference in the Russian & the Hong Kong, Russian included every ingredient you used except ginger & paprika. The Russian called for beets, less tomato, more garlic & some lemon juice.
    So, how long did the soup take in the instantpot? I've never used one.

    Hope you are feeling better, Flo, after Dude spread his germs to you! Soup looks yummy! I agree with you addition of the extra cabbage - when you just added the first bunch, I thought the cabbage was going to be a little light. Years ago, I knew a German woman who used to make the most incredible borscht. It was typical Russian style with beets. She didn't use sour cream nor, were there potatoes in hers. However, your Hong Kong Borscht looks like it would be on a par with hers flavour-wise. Definitely worth a try! :-)

    My Germanic background would have me call this a vegetable soup, at least in my family. I know not why it was not called a beef soup. The only difference would be the addition of green beans, baby green lima beans or some other bean to add a different texture and, for me as a kid lo those many years ago, a taste that I did not like. I think the lima beans would do the best for me today.

  • @davidh9844
    @davidh9844 3 года назад

    I was guessing that your "borscht" had Russian-Jewish origins, especially when you mentioned Shanghai. Anyway, two points. First if you want the "tartness", it's from citric acid/sour salt. Use VERY sparingly, a half tsp in 6-8 quarts will definitely sour up your soup. It's available in the spice section of any supermarket, and definitely on Amazon. A lot of Russian/Jewish sweet and sour stews, like stuffed cabbage, comes from the combo of tomato/citric acid/honey/carrot. Next, your vegetable peeling, onion base, nasty part of the celery that normally gets thrown away. NOT with an Instant Pot! Wash your carrots well, but save the peelings, the chunks of onion base (skins too, if you're brave), that pathetic wilted piece of celery that is begging to be thrown away, stuff them in a zip lock and freeze. The huge top chunk of green parts from a leek that goes into the garbage? NO! Wash it well to remove the sand, and freeze it! When you plan on making soup or something using a prepared soup or stock base, give yourself an extra hour. Put the soup base into the IP, and add a handful of your frozen vegetable scraps. High pressure for 30-45 minutes, let it cool as long as you have time, and you have just dramatically improved the quality of your soup base. I've gone as far as shopping for the cheapest cut of beef I can find, and price IS the object, and doing a heavy saute in the pot and oven browning beef bones in the oven for half an hour, and adding it to decent quality beef stock. Same procedure. Throw in the vegetables. You don't want to eat the discards, but the dogs love the beef when I make it, and the vegetables were destined for the dust bin anyway. I can't say that you save any money, but I love my discarded, recycled vegetables in my onion soup, beef stews, anything that requires stock. And yes, the excess freezes very nicely.
