Polish clear beetroot broth, soured with rye starter or lemon, served clear with uszka (small mushroom dumplings) at Christmas Eve or as Sunday lunch first course.
Barszcz czerwony in its clear festive form is the canonical Christmas Eve first course on Polish tables, served alongside uszka dumplings filled with wild mushroom. The dish has been part of Polish cooking since at least the 16th century, with the clear broth (klarowny) distinguishing the Polish version from Russian or Ukrainian borscht. Warsaw restaurants like Restauracja Polka and Stary Dom serve it year-round; at Christmas every Polish household sets a tureen on the table.
