RUSSIAN CUISINE Friday, 09 December 2011 16:15 {joomplu:860 left} RUSSIAN CUISINE is not a very well known internationally. The Russian diet usually consists of soups, potatoes, meat, cabbage, and bread. But that does not mean that Russian cuisine is boring and plain. Russians are very clever people, especially with their cooking. Walking around the streets of St. Petersburg, you can find a small stand, café, or Russian restaurant on almost every corner. The main dishes of Russian cuisine are: borscht, blini, golubtsi, vareniki, pelmeni, and bubliki. Usually, every meal in Russia is served with bread. Russian black bread is a personal favorite of many. If one ever has the chance to try any of these dishes, they will be very satisfied. {joomplu:861}BORSCHT is the most famous Russian dish. A traditionally Ukrainian-Russian soup, borscht is full of vitamins and minerals. One can find different kinds of borscht all around the country. The most famous borscht is Ukrainian borscht, but Russian versions are everywhere. Borscht is full of meat, potatoes, carrots, beets, sour cream, dill, and cabbage. Borscht is always better the second day. A whole pot full of the soup can last for a whole week. A Russian favorite, borscht is always good for any meal of the day. Cold or hot, borscht never fails to fill your hungry stomach, and leaves you wanting more every time. {joomplu:862}BLINI are a quick meal that also makes one crave for more. Similar to a crepe, Russian blini are found everywhere in restaurants, cafes, or small stands on the streets. Cheap, easy, and tasty, blini can be filled with almost anything. From chocolate, to sour cream, if you can imagine tasty blini, chances are that Russians perfected it already. T eremok is the best place to find quick and tasty blini in St. Petersburg. {joomplu:863}GOLUBTSI are stuffed cabbages typically marinated in different sauces. A whole cabbage is packed with rice, meat, and sometimes peppers or onions. golubtsi are great for a nice dinner in a restaurant. If one has the chance to try home cooked golubtsi, you are in for a real treat. Russian cuisine homemade is the best way to eat while in Russia. {joomplu:864} {joomplu:865}VARENIKI and PELMENI are also amazing Russian dishes. Similar in many ways, the two are Russian favorites. Vareniki are like a pirogi, which are filled with potatoes, cheese, or with some other filling. Pelmini are like dumplings, in which are small, 1 / 2 RUSSIAN CUISINE Friday, 09 December 2011 16:15 are filled with meat, and are best with sour cream. The only difference in the two is that vareniki are without meat, and pelmini contain just meat. Bubliki are like a donut that goes perfectly with coffee or tea. A nice morning treat, bubliki are enjoyed by all. Russian cuisine is probably the least known cuisine in Europe. With its simple, yet satisfying dishes, Russians perfected what they had in their previous history. With a long history of war, suffering, and oppression, Russian food came out great with what the people had at the time. Its traditions continue today, and they will continue for many years to come.

Contemporary Directions of Transformations in the Settlement and the Landscape of Rural Areas
Contemporary directions of transformations in the settlement and the landscape of rural areas... QUAESTIONES GEOGRAPHICAE 39(2) • 2020 CONTEMPORARY DIRECTIONS OF TRANSFORMATIONS IN THE SETTLEMENT AND THE LANDSCAPE OF RURAL AREAS IN THE SILESIAN LOWLAND Janusz Łach, BarBara szczepańska Faculty of Earth Sciences and Environmental Management, University of Wrocław, Wrocław Manuscript received: January 31, 2020 Revised version: May 4, 2020 Łach, J., szczepańska B., (2020). Contemporary directions of transformations in the settlement and the landscape of ru- ral areas in the Silesian Lowland. Quaestiones Geographicae 39(2), Bogucki Wydawnictwo Naukowe, Poznań, pp. 55–73. 7 figs, 2 tables. aBstract: Rural areas of the Silesian Lowland, undergoing social and economic transformations today, have had a strong impact on the formation of the region’s settlement landscapes. Political and economic changes after 1989 have affected the development of rural areas, in particular of ‘privileged’ settlements for which the proximity of towns and a trunk road are favourable factors. The result of these seemingly positive factors is the escape of young people (potential farmers) to the cities and an influx of new settlers. This affects social behaviour and activity, as well as the visual rural landscape, creating suburban zones with residential and leisure functions. The village seems to have lost its typical character but has it really? The subject of the research is, therefore, an analysis of changes in the spatial and social structure of a rural village as exemplified by Borek Strzeliński, which allows setting out its functions. The research issue is to determine the level of social activity of rural residents and their attitude towards the local cultural heritage, which influences their identity and the value of the landscape.

Excerpt from Encyclopedia of Jewish Food
Excerpt from Encyclopedia of Jewish Food Borscht Borscht is a soup made with beets. It may be hot or cold and it may contain meat or be vegetarian. Origin: Ukraine Other names: Polish: barszcz; Russian: borshch; Ukranian: borshch; Yiddish: borsht. Northern Poland and the Baltic States are rather far north, lying in a region with long dark winters, a relatively short growing season, and a limited number of (as well as sometimes an aversion to) available vegetables. During the early medieval period, eastern Europeans began making a chunky soup from a wild whitish root related to carrots, called brsh in Old Slavonic and cow parsnip in English. Possibly originating in Lithuania, the soup spread throughout the Slavic regions of Europe to become, along with shchi (cabbage soup), the predominant dish, each area giving the name its local slightly different pronunciation. In May, peasants would pick the tender leaves of the brsh to cook as greens, then gather and store the roots to last as a staple through the fall and winter. Typically, a huge pot of brsh stew was prepared, using whatever meat and bones one could afford and variously adding other root vegetables, beans, cabbage, mushrooms, or whatever was on hand. This fed the family for a week or more and was sporadically refreshed with more of the ingredients or what was found. The root’s somewhat acrid flavor hardly made the most flavorsome of soups, even with the addition of meat, but the wild roots were free to foragers; brsh was one of the few vegetables available to peasants during the winter and provided a flavor variation essential to the Slavic culture.

Russian Food: Old and New
Russian Food: Old and New Published 30 March 2020, with Darra Goldstein Darra Goldstein recently retired as professor of Russian literature, language and culture at Williams College. From the start though, she's been as interested in food as in literature and history, and she combines those passions in her books. The latest of those is called Beyond the North Wind, Russia in Recipes and Lore. That sounds like a fairy story or a folk tale. Darra Goldstein: I'm glad it evoked that because I very much wanted to. The title actually comes from the ancient Greek name for a utopia called Hyperborea, which means beyond the north wind, and it was described by Pliny and Herodotus as this place where the Sun always shone, there were beautiful, tall, blonde people, and most importantly, it was the birthplace of technology. And in their writing they described how to get there. You cross the Carpathians and you go over a river, you turn left at a certain rock. Russian geographers over the years have tried to pinpoint where that utopia was, and came up with the idea or the belief, the conviction that it was the Kola peninsula, which is in the far northwest part of Russia above the Arctic circle. And in fact, that area was settled by Vikings: tall, blonde people. The sun always shines there, at least in the summer months because of the midnight sun, even if it's dark in the winter. And early Russian sources describe these towers where the moon and the sun and the stars had been captured.

Russian National Cuisine: a View from Outside
International Journal of Innovation and Research in Educational Sciences Volume 6, Issue 2, ISSN (Online) : 2349–5219 Russian National Cuisine: A View from Outside Natalya V. Kravchenko Lomonosov Moscow State University, Russia. Date of publication (dd/mm/yyyy): 14/03/2019 Abstract – The article tackles the issue of how Russian national cuisine is perceived by foreigners. It compares Russians’ beliefs about their own national cuisine with foreigners’ observations about it and some encyclopedic facts about a number of “traditional” Russian dishes. As a research method, the cross-cultural comparison is used. As a result, it proves that some Russian dishes are not so Russian in origin and states that foreigners often find the taste of these dishes unusual. So, it may be challenging for representatives of one culture to adjust to another national cuisine. Keywords – Cultural Anthropology, Foreigners’ Travel-Notes and Observations, National Cuisines and Russian National Cuisine. I. INTRODUCTION Nowadays we live in a global world or so called “global village” connected with each other by different means of transport and communication. It’s becoming incredibly easy to explore other nations and cultures either by travelling or by using social media. It has resulted in such branches of humanities as cross-cultural studies and cultural anthropology being on peak of their demand. Here I would like to pay special attention to cultural anthropology. As a branch of academia it tackles the issue of a person’s cultural development including all knowledge from Humanities. (1) In this paper I will stick to a relatively new field of cultural anthropology called history of everyday life culture.

The influence of culture on the national environment forms the national character and mentality. Language, being the basis and product of culture, has the ability to influence the formation and development of folk culture, and as a result of their interaction has formed a new science – cultural linguistics. It is, in turn, closely linked to the ethnolinguistics. National and cultural ways of verbalization gluttonic preferences are related to the identity and originality of the Russians and the British. Ethnic particularity of gluttony creates a unique national cuisine due to the peculiarities and taste perceptions of Nations. At the same time, there is a mutual influence of national cuisines at each other, which, however, does not exclude originality of each of them. All this is reflected both at the level of the nominees of the foodstuffs consumed, and in the language of each ethnic community.
