Luo Songtang, a famous recipe of gourmet soup. Luo Songtang is a soup that can be found everywhere in eastern European countries such as Russia and Poland, and it is also common in the United States and other western countries. Jews who immigrated from Russia, Poland and other eastern European countries are the main disseminators of this soup all over the world. The northern suburb of new york is an area where Jews live relatively intensively. It was once called Luo Songtang Belt or Luo Songtang Circle. -Luo Songtang is the Jewish word for this soup. In Russia, this soup is written as Luo Songtang, which comes from the Russian name of beet or parsnip, the main ingredient of this soup.

Later, after many times of evolution, in addition to beets, Luo Songtang usually adds other vegetables such as cabbage and potatoes to the soup, and some of them also contain meat, which is even more eclectic. This is because this soup was not invented by the great chef. It used to be one of the main foods for ordinary Russians, so how to do it mainly depends on what is at home. It usually reflects putting everything in. This soup can be drunk hot in winter and cold in summer. Generally speaking, before eating, Luo Songtang should be decorated with a little foamed sour cream and dill coriander. Sweet and sour is a major feature of soup.
