(BAHRSHCH)
A tart soup divided into two basic types: red (made with beets) and white (creamed). The czerwony barszcz ranges from the hearty barszcz ukraiński containing beans, potatoes, other vegetables and meat and/or sausage to the delicate czysty barszcz czerwony, a clear Burgundy-hued beetroot-flavored bouillon. The biały barszcz is often served over hard-cooked egg slices. In many families it is the traditional Easter soup (biały barszcz wielkanocny).
