This vegetarian borscht recipe is adapted from a version recorded by the late spy Markus Wolf, better known as the “man without a face.”
In a large pot, heat the oil over low heat. Add the onion, cover, and cook, stirring occasionally, until just translucent, about 10 minutes. Add the carrots, beets, and cabbage, cover, and cook until tender, about 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, to a second large pot, add the potatoes and 8 cups of salted water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat but do not drain.Add the tomato paste, sugar, and vinegar to the vegetables and cook, stirring, until the sugar dissolves, about 2 minutes. Add the potatoes and their cooking water; continue cooking for 10 minutes. Stir in 2 tablespoons each of dill, parsley, and chives, and season to taste with salt and black pepper.Serve in bowls, either hot or chilled, and top with sour cream, garlic, and the remaining herbs.
