Original and varied, Russian cuisine is famous for exotic soups, cabbage shchi and solyanka, which is made of assorted meats. Russians are great lovers of pelmeni, small Siberian meat pies boiled in broth.
Every housewife of any experience has her own recipes of pies, pickles and sauerkraut. Even more varied is the choice of recipes for mushrooms, one of the most abundant and nourishing gifts of our woods. They are fried, pickled, salted and boiled.
