My whole family loves this soup because, it tastes so good and gives you a refreshing lift. It was handed down to me from my mom, and I have passed it on to my boys, as both of them enjoy cooking, and trying new things.
Ingredients:
4 -5 potatoes
3 -14 ounces size canned beets, finely shredded
1 small onion, finely grated
1 seedless cucumber, finely grated
3 hard-boiled eggs (chopped)
3 quarts buttermilk
1 (8 ounce) container sour cream
1 teaspoon dry dill weed
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons white vinegar
Directions:
1. Note: Keep Buttermilk chilled.
2. Cube and boil potatoes in salted water for 15 mins, drain and set aside to
3. cool.
4. Using a hand grater; finely grate the onion and cucumber into a large bowl.
5. Thinly shred the beets, also using the hand grater, and add to bowl.
6. Now, add the buttermilk, sour cream, chopped eggs, salt, and dill weed. Stir until all ingredients are well blended.
7. Put some of the boiled potatoes in individual soup bowl, pour soup over, and
8. enjoy. (Sometimes, if I have green onions available, I will slice them up
9. and saute in margarine, and pour over the potatoes before adding the
10. buttermilk.) - YUMMY!
