Another form of kitchen alchemy and extraction: Kvass. This fermented beverage is refreshing and tangy. Using Kvass as broth may be unconventional but it is also uncommonly good, especially beet kvass used in borscht, either cold or hot. Give it a try.
Kvass Recipe
12 slices dark rye bread
2-3 quarts hot water
¼ cup sugar or honey
1 ¼ teaspoon dry active yeast
1 Tablespoon lemon juice
12 raisins
For Beet Kvass
2-4 beets, peeled and cubed
2-3 quarts water
