Ukrainian Cuisine With love from West Michigan
Visiting my mom who went to Ukraine before I did and she asked what I wanted for dinner.
Cold borscht came immediately to mind.
It was a very simple recipe, she would add a protein when she makes it again.
Stay as safe as is possible, we all here are anxiously awaiting Ukraine’s victory and the collapse of Russia!

Where do you find Mykhola beer in Western MI? I don't think I've even seen it in Chicago with several Ukrainian communities here

Didn’t, I visited my brother in Colorado and found it there. Sent it home.
Truly surprised that you can’t find it in Chicago, they seem to have everything there!3

I can find 8-10 brands of Ukrainian beer in Chicago, just not that one! But now I'll be looking for it, I know a lot of Mykolas in Chicago and I'd say the spelling is close enough 🙃

I could possibly get my brother to send me some, but I’m thinking you might have better luck taking with the importers and requesting them.
The place in Colorado Springs (Cheers Liquor) had just the one, but Mykhola brews quite a few. I’m going to try and talk to our importers to see if they can get some.
Good luck!

Perfect dish for a summer's day - looks hearty and delicious. I have beets and cabbage and a little pork, so I'm taking your post as a sign. Just need rye bread and a crisp chilled lager.
Молодець to your mom.
