Russian Weeks,Netcost Market Philadelphia Holiday Extravaganza,Netcost Family – Interesting Facts About Netcost Market Russian Weeks Russia is a huge country – 5,562 miles wide to be exact! So, it’s hard to know where to start when it comes to Russian cuisine. The country is so vast and has so many different cultures and traditions that there’s certainly something for everyone. From the 5th to 18th January, we’ll be holding our Russian week’s specials here at NetCost Market as part of our weekly specials. It’s a chance for you to discover something new if you’ve never had Russian cuisine before, or indulge in some of your favorites if you’re already acquainted with the culinary delights of this amazing country. Here are just some of our favorites! Cured fish Russia is heaven for fish fans — especially freshwater fish fans! Due to the Russian Orthodox fast days when meat is forbidden, Russians have become expert preparers of fish. It’s often preserved by either pickling, smoking, or salting, if not eaten fresh. Right now at NetCost Market, we’ve got a Russian favorite — hot smoked sturgeon! This meaty fish is known for caviar but it also has a rich, meaty flavor that is enjoyed across the country. Pelmeni If you haven’t tried pelmeni, then it’s time you pulled yourself together and got out and tried them! Pelmeni is small individually wrapped dumplings stuffed with ground pork, lamb, or beef. They originate in the east of Russia but are now popular all over due to their truly wholesome flavor. Pelmeni would have originally been prepared and then frozen in the snow for winter as a way of preserving the meat before being steamed or boiled. At NetCost Market, we’re currently stocking delicious Siberian pelmeni, but luckily for you, there’s no need to keep them in the snow outside! They’ll do perfectly well in your fridge or freezer. Bubliki Bubliki is a ringed bread that’s made using a wheat dough which is boiled in water before it’s baked. It’s similar to a bagel, but usually, it has a thicker crust and stronger flavor. You’ll often find them tied up with string at local bakeries in Russia. They go perfectly well with Russian cheese or cured meats and make the perfect lunchtime snack. Solyanka This spicy and sour soup is a Russia favorite. Although it may seem a little strange, it’s actually really tasty and is the perfect thing to keep you warm through the winter months. The main ingredients are meat or fish, pickled cucumbers, potatoes, cabbage, olives, and dill — but there is a whole host of different ingredients that could be used depending on the region. At NetCost Market, we’ll be offering Solyanka as part of our Russian weeks! Russian food comes in all shapes, sizes, flavors, and colors — it’s no surprise with a country so huge! It’s, therefore, a great idea to celebrate this wonderfully diverse culinary land by heading down to your local NetCost Market between the 5th and 18th of January! We’ll be offering free tastings on Saturdays at select locations, so check out our website to see what you can taste when you head down to your local store.

If you weren’t already aware, it’s Georgian Weeks here at NetCost Market! That means we’re celebrating everything this fascinating and breathtaking country has to offer. In previous blog posts, we gave you some great recipes for classic Georgian cuisine and told you about some of the culinary delights that this tiny nation has to offer. This week, we’re going to be telling you all about the great Georgian products we currently have here at NetCost Market as part of our Georgian Weeks Weekly Specials! Shoti Bread Shoti is a Georgian bread that’s cooked in an oven called a tone — a type of cylindrical oven similar to an Indian tandoor. The bread is made using white wheat flour and the beauty of shoti is in its simplicity and freshness, so it’s best eaten straight out of the oven when still warm. Each loaf resembles a boat due to the curved shape it gets from the side of the stone oven. Right now, NetCost Market is offering freshly baked shot for as little as $2.49! There’s no reason not to try this tasty bread that goes well with just about any meal. Basturma Basturma is an air-dried, highly-seasoned cured beef that has its roots in Byzantine and Ottoman Turkish cuisine. In fact, this type of meat is popular across the whole of the Caucus region and as far south as Egypt where a variety of meats including camel are used to make this delicious preserved delicacy. In Georgia, it’s often served alongside locally produced Georgian wine and is also grilled and then served with tomatoes, onions, and lemon juice. Luckily for you, you don’t need to go all the way to Georgia to get world-class Basturma because we have it right here at NetCost Market for an amazing $13.99 per lb. — that’s $3 less than the regular price! Gruzinskaya Beef Salami Gruzinskaya is a dry beef salami that’s a real favorite in Georgia. It is very lean and therefore has a richer flavor than most other salamis, making it unique to the region when compared with other European types from further west. Right now, Gruzinskaya Beef Salami has a massive 31% off at only $8.99 per lb.! So, there’s no better time to try this unique, delectable Georgian favorite.

  • 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.

  • RIGI Menu ENG October
    COLDS MAIN DISHES MAIN HOTS APPETIZERS Everything new is a well-forgotten old. Our gastronomic douqan is a new enterprise and a part of our history and culture that always has decorated our capital city as well as the whole country. The culture of douqan has flourished in Georgia in XVIII-XIX centuries. With their colorful environment and rich menus, you could have come across them in whatever walks of life - cotton row , iron row, dark row, crystal row, coffee row, near Ortachala gardens or the banks of Mtkvari river. Due to the douqan’s culture the paintings of Pirosmani have survived until today. The same culture has enriched our heritage with vastly different names, which reflected the very individualistic and specific Tbilisian environment that each owner of douqan had to offer-Dagrekhilua’s douqan, Japara’s douqan, Abuashvili’s douqan, Lopiana’s douqan and so on and on. The wine was flowing straight from the skin barrels, “Chanari” and “Tsotskhali” fish were caught straight in Mtkvari river. The greens and radish were coming from ortachala gardens. The menu of our gastronomic douqan is the mix of old Tbilisian and regional courses as the main characteristic of Georgian cuisine’s variety is in its regionalism. Here you can feel the mix of highest quality Georgian products, chef’s refined signature, intense aromas and balanced harmonic composition. Sample and Sense It ! Menu developed by Brand Chef Giorgi Sarajishvili Menu concept by “Gastronaut” Appetizers “Khoncha” means large platter in old Georgian, where the food was offered in small amounts. It was used during rituals, as a gift and for snacks before feasts.

  • 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.

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.
