Steak Sandwich tomatoes grow large and have that old-fashioned tomato taste that is perfect for sandwiches or salads. They grow firm even when fully ripe which makes them very easy to slice for a good BLT or hamburger. Plants produce high yields well into fall.
Depending on the recipe, some of these components may be omitted or substituted for. Borscht ingredients may include beef, pork, lard, beetroots, cabbage, carrots, celeriac, onions, potatoes, mushrooms, tomato paste, parsley, chives, dill, bay leaves, allspice and black pepper.
Beside the beetroot it is the main ingredient of Borscht and it makes the soup thick, which, according to my grandmother, is characteristic of good Borscht. Even if you are used to cooking in spinster-sized pots, you can make an exception when cooking Borscht. Use a large pot for your Borscht.
