Borsch is popular all over Eastern Europe, but Ukraine and Russia are perhaps most famous for this beet soup. There are as many recipes as there are babushki who make it. Borsch can be served hot in the winter and cold in the summer, may contain meat and a variety of vegetables, and is commonly served with a generous dollop of sour cream.
