For an even richer flavor, consider using homemade beef broth. Roasting the beef shank before searing will also deepen the flavor profile. Feel free to adjust the amount of vinegar to suit your preference for tartness. A touch of sugar can also be added to balance the acidity. Borscht tastes even better the next day, as the flavors have more time to meld together. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Consider adding a minced clove of garlic along with the onions and carrots for extra depth of flavor.
