  6. My dad loves this borscht so much that he even built a special grill for the lid (pictured) so that the dough does not sag and does not fall into the borscht. Before that, my mother and I did it on twigs without bark. At home I used to make matches for the fireplace. In general, there is a place for rampant fantasy 🙂
