Borscht Mod (Борщ Мод)
by ArtFet8
Borscht Mod adds a beetroot soup to Fabric worlds for Minecraft 1.20.1, cooked from beetroot, cooked beef and potato.
What it does
A traditional Eastern European beetroot soup is added as an edible item, topped with a dollop of sour cream. It stays close to vanilla soups: the dish is crafted from one beetroot, one cooked beef and one potato, and eating it returns the empty wooden bowl to the inventory, as vanilla soups do. The soup restores 5 hunger bars, which is 10 hunger points and 10 saturation points, and it can be eaten even when the hunger bar is full, which makes it a quick source of healing during tough fights.
Borscht Mod requires Fabric API and is released under the CC0 1.0 Universal license, a public domain dedication, so the code is not open source in the usual sense. Installation covers the server and each player's game. Files are published for Fabric only, for Minecraft 1.20.1, with 1.0.0 as the latest file, published on 2026-06-21.
Key features
Borscht recipe
The soup is crafted from one beetroot, one cooked beef and one potato, with ingredients that are common in survival.

Regeneration effect
The soup grants Regeneration for 15 seconds, restoring 3 hearts, or 6 HP, in total.
Bowl returned on eating
Like vanilla soups, the empty wooden bowl goes back into the inventory after the soup is eaten.

Use cases
Food variety in survival
Players who have eaten the same rabbit stews and beetroot soups for a long time get a different hearty meal from the same vanilla ingredients.
Quick healing during fights
Because the soup can be eaten at full hunger, it gives a fast source of healing in the middle of a hard fight.
Who it’s for: Players who want a hearty survival meal and server owners who want an extra vanilla-style food on a Fabric server running 1.20.1.
How it compares
Glixed's Soups is a Fabric mod for 1.20.1 that is also client and server, under All rights reserved and not open source, so it is licensed differently. Simply Astonishing Food is also Fabric-only for 1.20.1 and client and server, under the MIT License and not open source. Berry Much is server-side only, open source under the MIT License, and covers 1.20 – 1.21.8, so players can join it without installing anything.
