This gazpacho de remolacha is smooth, bright, and cooling, with the sweetness of beetroot balanced by ripe tomato, cucumber, and a sharp touch of sherry vinegar. It is light yet satisfying, with a striking ruby color and a clean, fresh finish.

Chłodnik is a bright, chilled beet soup with a creamy buttermilk base, crisp cucumber and radish, and plenty of dill and chives. Tangy, cooling, and beautifully pink, it is one of the most refreshing dishes of the Polish summer table.
