For cooking, it is better to use filtered or bottled water that is neutral to taste. If you use tap water, keep in mind that it can give the dish an unpleasant characteristic taste.

The amount of water specified in the recipe can be reduced or increased at your request, depending on whether you want to get a thick or more liquid soup.

Green borscht belongs to Slavic cuisine. For a change, you can add nettles to it. Sorrel, on the other hand, gives the taste a little sourness and a unique aroma.
If it is not possible to get fresh sorrel in winter, then you can use canned or frozen. Ready-made green borscht turns out no worse.
This first course will make up for the lack of vitamins, strengthen the nerves and heart, and please the stomach.
