I am looking for a recipe for "somma borscht". I have had this soup in restaurants a couple of times this summer and would like to make it at home. There was farmers sausage, potatoes, and a slightly milky broth in this soup. Also it looked like there was dill and other herbs in there. If anyone can help, I would appreciate it.

I hope this is what you are looking for Borscht soup Makes 6 servings. 3 tbsps unsalted butter 2 medium onions, finely chopped 4 leeks, white part only, finely chopped 1 celery rib, cut into 1/4-inch dice 1 medium turnip, cut into 1/4-inch dice 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped 1 lb. fresh trimmed or 3/4 pound drained canned beets, cut into 1/4-inch dice, 2 cups 5 cups beef broth 6 tbsps white wine vinegar or to taste Salt and pepper to taste Sour cream Chopped fresh dill (optional) Slices of black bread (optional) 1. Melt the butter in a 4-quart pot over medium heat. Add the vegetables and cook for 15 to 20 minutes, until the vegetables soften. If you're using canned beets, add them after the other vegetables have softened). 2. Add the beef broth and bring the soup to a simmer. Simmer slowly for 10 minutes. Reach in with a spoon and sample a few of the vegetables to make sure they have softened thoroughly. 3. Sprinkle in the wine vinegar to taste. Season with salt and pepper. Serve in hot bowls. Pass the sour cream, chopped dill, and sliced black bread at the table. Try this link if the above is not it www-2.cs.cmu.edu/~mjw/recipes/soup/mp-borscht-coll.html
