"Yiddishe mama" as it was served in east European Jewish homes.
Former Prime Minister of Israel Golda

heat 1/2 hour longer, or until chicken is tender. Remove chicken and
strain soup. Taste and correct seasonings. Makes about 2 to 2-1/2 quarts

foam from the surface. Reduce the heat, cover
again and simmer 15 minutes longer.
Add the remaining ingredients
and continue simmering, covered, for 2 hours,
skimming off whatever foam rises to the surface.
Remove the chicken and strain the soup. Correct
the seasoning. Serve with kneidelach.

Meat borscht comes from Russia and is a winter favorite.
It is cooked for several hours on a low flame and its pungent aroma
penetrates every corner of the home. It has become popular to serve
hot borscht at parties at the stroke of midnight. No one wanting to
miss this treat will go home before that hour. The influx of thousands
of newcomers from the former Soviet Union in recent years has reinforced
the popularity of the various types of borscht in Israel.

NOTE: An interesting
variation on this soup is to substitute
1 cup of baby lima beans, soaked in water
to cover overnight, for the barley.
1/2
cup dried baby lima beans
6 cups cold water
1/4 cup corn or vegetable oil
1 large onion, diced

for 1 pound of fresh mushrooms. Soak the
dried mushrooms in hot water to cover for 20
minutes, strain and add to soup. You can
strain the mushroom soaking water through
a paper coffee filter and substitute it
for an equal amount of broth. Dried mushrooms
have a more intense, woodsy flavor and will give
a rich taste to the soup. Makes 10 to 12 servings.
