Ukraine is holding a national online cook-in on Friday as part of a drive to get Unesco recognition of borscht - beetroot soup - as a Ukrainian dish.
The event is taking place on YouTube.
The campaign has a rather sour flavour, however, as borscht - known as borshch in Ukraine - is also a staple dish in Russian and Polish cuisine. The Polish version is called barszcz .
The Ukrainian Ministry of Culture invited a celebrity chef, Yevhen Klopotenko, to supervise the cook-in, involving 25 participants from all regions of the country of 44 million. Each can show off a regional recipe for borscht on YouTube.
