Veggie Broth and Beet Potage

When I went to Russia on a language study program when I was in university, I tried many kinds of щи (soup). Authentic borscht was especially delicious. This time, I made it healthy by using veggie broth and soy milk.
Steam cooking the vegetables brings out the sweetness.
Cook the beets well, until tender.
The veggie broth mellows the earthy smell of the beets. Recipe by Shijimigohan

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Peel the beet and slice it thinly, chop the potato, and slice the onion.
- 2
Heat some olive oil in a pot and sauté the onion.
- 3
When the onion is translucent, add the beets and potatoes. When they're coated in oil, sprinkle with salt, cover with a lid and steam-cook over low heat, stirring occasionally.
- 4
When the amount has reduced a bit and the beets become tender, pour in the vegetable broth, replace the lid, and let it simmer.

When the potatoes are soft and the beets are well cooked, add 200 ml soy milk. Put the mixture through a blender.

Pour the mixture back in the pot, add the remaining soy milk and reheat it. Season with salt, and it's ready to serve ♪

I put some chopped green scallions on top ♪ A little wasabi mixed in as a finishing touch brings out the sweetness of the beets and is surprisingly delicious ♪

I thought up a simple and delicious stock recipe.Any vegetables are fine - daikon radish, carrots, onion peels, spinach and mizuna roots, broccoli stems, the outer leaves of lettuce and cabbage, etc. But try to limit yourself to vegetables only, and avoid using animal proteins.Depending on the kind of vegetable scraps you use the taste of this stock will change, meaning you get to experience a new flavour every time.

#zerowaste vegetable broth #zerowaste vegetable broth
I've been saving and freezing all my veggie scraps from cooking preparation for the past couple of months. Instead of throwing to the garbage the carrot & onion peels or bell pepper & zucchini stems, I put them in a large ziploc bag in my freezer. When the bag is full, or when you have no more room in your freezer because you've cumulated too many ziploc bags, it's time to make your broth! 😄😄 All veggie scraps are good to go in except for potato peels. Of course you, have to wash thoroughly your veggies if you want to do this, even if you eat organic. mfno -

Broccoli Stem Potage Broccoli Stem Potage
The stem of a head of broccoli I bought were so thick and grand.Usually I peel, slice thinly and boil them or something, but I thought I'd try making a soup out of them.It depends on the broccoli you have, but the thick stems are fibrous, so you need to peel them thickly or the soup may be grainy.The stems I used this time weighed more than 300 g.If you add the green parts of the broccoli too, the soup will be brighter in color. I used the stems only this time, so the soup is just a very light green. Recipe by Junchan cookpad.japan -
