One photo every day: Borsch (128/365)

in #onephotoeveryday7 years ago

Heya!

I got an opportunity to shoot our dinner today.

So here it is:


Borsch

Camera body: Canon EOS 550D
Lens: Sigma ART 50 mm  ƒ/1.4
Aperture: ƒ/2.8
Exposure:  1/80 s
ISO: Dual-ISO 100+400



According to Wikipedia, Borsch is a soup that's popular in Eastern European cuisine most often made from beetroot and other ingredients.

Borscht derives from an ancient soup originally cooked from pickled stems, leaves and umbels of common hogweed (Heracleum sphondylium), a herbaceous plant growing in damp meadows, which lent the dish its Slavic name. With time, it evolved into a diverse array of tart soups, among which the beet-based red borscht has become the most popular. It is typically made by combining meat or bone stock with sautéed vegetables, which – as well as beetroots – usually include cabbage, carrots, onions, potatoes and tomatoes. Depending on the recipe, borscht may include meat or fish, or be purely vegetarian; it may be served either hot or cold; and it may range from a hearty one-pot meal to a clear broth or a smooth drink. It is often served with smetana or sour cream, hard-boiled eggs or potatoes, but there exists an ample choice of more involved garnishes and side dishes, such as uszka or pampushky, that can be served with the soup.

Ours was made from beetroot strips, carrots, cabbage, red onion, leek, celery and chopped sausages. Topped with some smetana, It was amazing. :)

The Winter, it seems, has melted away, atleast for now. Let's hope it'll come back soon.

See ya again soon with another photo post tomorrow! :)

Super photo today, I don't know this food but it got me salivating.....Can I get some?? @gamer00

Nothing wrong with borscht. Did the kids like it?

Miro dislikes it every time, Leo decided to take seconds.

Lol. Miro is a very unique and nice kid. Disliking that meal, may mean he can eat more like i do.

Borsch?! Are u joking? This is one of my favorite national dishes!)

Had you not said it was soup, I would've thought it to be something like a bowl of cold veggies with some whipped cream on it xD

My favorite dish is the borsch. I also love pelminis (Russian ravioli). It opens my appetite all that.
Well done for the article - very nice!

Thank you! I need to check out pelminis, I haven't ever had those.


@gamer00,
#1. It seems delicious
#2. You took an amazing photography of it!

Great work friend!

Cheers~

Looks delicious @gamer00! Love your concept of uploading a photo every day for a year, keep it up!

I'm still new to Steemit and I finished my third post yesterday. I try to give structured feedback on peoples pictures. If you have some time, would you read my last post and tell me what you think? I would appreciate it a lot!

Enjoy your day!

Thanks! I will definitely try to keep posting them.

You might noticed that I went through your page. You have a good idea there, receiving and digesting critique is what I find essential to improving my (and others') photography.

I'm following you now. Hopefully I will see more of your posts in the future, and maybe see you even critique mine one day.

And very nice evening to you. :)

Are you saying that was your dinner? I could only take that as dessert. Lol. I eat alot.

Yea well we are simple people, we settle for simple dishes. It's soup so one can always fill the bowl and eat another serving. :)

Lokks yummy! I thought it was strawberries at first!

Lovely. So how can i get to eat this?😁😁😁
