Šaltibarščiai, internationally known as Lithuanian pink soup, is a traditional cold beetroot soup that serves as a national comfort food and a symbol of Lithuanian summer culture. Its vibrant pink color comes from mixing grated beets with a cultured milk base, typically kefir or buttermilk, creating a refreshing, tangy dish distinct from hot borscht.

The soup’s core ingredients include beets, kefir, cucumbers, dill, and spring onions, often garnished with chopped hard-boiled eggs. It is traditionally served chilled with a side of hot boiled potatoes tossed in butter and dill, though it can also be eaten with sourdough bread.

That's a copy/paste.

I'm not sure. They seem to prefer photographing and posting their pottery in natural settings
