Chilled beet soup with @lifewaykefir #ad Ingredie Chilled beet soup with @lifewaykefir #ad

Ingredients (4 servings)

8oz beets, skip step 1 if using precooked
3 cups Lifeway plain kefir
1 cup diced cucumber, about 2 persian cucumbers
1/4 cup dill, finely chopped
2 scallions, finely chopped
1/4 tsp kosher salt, plus more to taste
1/2 cup water or beet cooking liquid, to adjust consistency
4 hard boiled eggs, halved

1. Scrub the beets thoroughly to remove dirt. Place beets in a pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Simmer for 30-40 minutes, until easily pierced with a knife. Drain and let beets cool until safe to handle. Scrub skins off with a paper towel.

2. Pass the beets through large holes on a grater.

3. In a large bowl, combine the beets, kefir, cucumbers, dill, and scallions. Stir to combine and adjust to your desired consistency with additional water or beet cooking liquid. Season to taste with salt.

4. Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with hard boiled eggs and additional dill and scallions. Makes 4 servings.

$3 vs. $21 tinned anchovies 🎣 Tinned Fish Talk $3 vs. $21 tinned anchovies 🎣 Tinned Fish Talk

🐟 Cento anchovy fillets ($3) are your pantry workhorse—intensely salty, fishy, and ready to melt into a garlicky pasta or Caesar dressing. A little goes a long way, so I prefer to cook with these instead of eating them as-is.

🐟 El Capricho’s anchovies ($21 from @rainbowtomatoesgarden) are hand-cleaned, aged in barrels for at least 12 months, then carefully hand-packed into each tin. It’s rich, buttery, almost meaty in flavor. These are a centerpiece, not meant to be hidden or cooked.

Salt-cured tinned anchovies are semi-preserved, so I recommend storing them in the refrigerator. Let the tin come to room temperature for an hour or two before consuming.
