  4. 3 - Rinse spring beets, remove bad looking stems, cut off the oldest and yellowish leaves, gently scrape the beet roots.
  5. Chop the beet stems into 1 cm (half an inch) parts, chop the leaves, and slice the small roots finely.
  6. Prepare the rest of ingredients.
  7. 4 - Heat up the stock, add salt if needed, add potatoes, carrot, lovage, spring onion, bay leaf, and bring the stock to boil, then simmer for 5 minutes.
  8. 5 - Add roots, stems and leaves of beets, add dill, marjoram, sugar, and cook for the next 5 minutes.
  9. 6 - Stir in lemon juice, add salt and pepper to reach the optimal flavor.
  10. Have in mind the fact that the cream will soften the flavor of the soup.
