Join us for a delicious and immersive culinary experience as we dive into the rich and vibrant world of Ukrainian cuisine! Learn how to make Borscht from scratch while exploring the art of balancing flavors and textures, as our native Ukrainian instructor guides you through the process.
Cooks of any experience level will have fun as they get hands-on to make this iconic dish. Once everyone has done their part and the Borscht is ready, we'll savor a bowl together in Virginia's Dining Room, and each person will take home a container to enjoy or share later.
Beets have the potential to color your hands during the cooking process. We highly recommend the use of gloves or aprons to prevent any unintended staining that may ruin your outfits. On the other hand, Borscht has its own set of superstitions and some people believe that if you spill borscht, it's a sign of good luck. So, don't worry about those red stains on your clothes, it might just be a stroke of fortune.
Class Note: Some samples/recipes contain wheat. This is not a vegetarian recipe, but the instructors will cover how to make a vegetarian version.
