"The beet is the murderer returned to the scene of the crime..." - Tom Robbins

You either love beets or you hate them- I know, I know... most of us are just afraid of them. I won't lie... when I was cooking this delicious, aromatic, spicy Loaded Vegetarian Borscht with Anise Hyssop, I was thinking "oh man this is going to taste terrible". But don't be frightened by the colour and texture of this flavour packed soup. It is absolutely delicious and very satisfying. There are many different versions of borscht in Eastern Europe. This here is my version. Try it out and let me know what you think. Fair warning, it is very, very good for your digestive system. That's all I am going to say. Can anyone say stomach cleanse! LOL!
