Delicious Comforting Beet Soup

O Que Você Precisa Saber

- Cooking the chopped beets in vegetable broth softens the firm pulp and extracts betanin, generating a vivid pigmentation. - The lemon juice added at the end breaks the excessive sweetness of the root and stabilizes the acidity and brightness of the dish. - Blending results in a cream with a silky texture without the need for starch-based thickeners.

Ingredients

Main Course

4 medium beets peeled and chopped
1 chopped onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 cups of vegetable broth
1 tablespoon olive oil
Salt and black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon of lemon juice

Instructions

Main Course

Heat the olive oil in the pan and sauté the onion until translucent.

Adicione o alho e refogue por mais 1 minuto.

Place the chopped beets and mix well.

Cook over medium heat for about 30 minutes, or until the beets are soft.

Turn off the heat and let it cool slightly.

Chef Tips

- Chop the beets into small, uniform cubes to reduce cooking time and ensure total softness in the center. - Use disposable culinary gloves when handling and chopping the beets so as not to stain your hands and the cutting board. - Add the lemon juice only after beating the cream to preserve the aromatic acidity and enhance the ruby color.

Variations

- Acrescente 1 colher de sopa de iogurte grego natural ou coalhada seca no centro do prato ao servir estilo borscht. - Incorpore 1 maçã descascada e picada junto à beterraba no cozimento para acrescentar notas agridoces refinadas. - Polvilhe sementes de girassol tostadas na frigideira sobre a sopa para conferir contraste crocante e nutrientes.

Substitutions

- Lemon juice can be replaced with 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar or good quality red wine vinegar. - The vegetable broth can be replaced with filtered water boiled with celery stalks, bay leaves, and chopped carrots. - Olive oil can be replaced with 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter for a velvety finish.

How to Store

Guarde em recipiente de vidro com vedação hermética na geladeira por até 4 dias. O sabor se mantém estável e até mais pronunciado no dia seguinte; reaqueça em fogo baixo mexendo com uma espátula para não agarrar no fundo.

Can You Freeze It?

Freezes very well for up to 90 days in the freezer in proper oxygen-free containers. To consume, thaw in the refrigerator the night before and heat in the pan; add a few drops of lemon to reactivate the brightness of the original color.

What to Serve With

Serves perfectly with rye-type black bread or sliced corn bread, creamy goat cheese, or whole-grain herb toast. It also goes well with bitter leaf salads like arugula and glasses of young red wine.
