Solyanka, Stroganoff, gribniy sup, blini!!! BLINI!!! Can't believe nobody mentioned Blini!!
well, “borsch” you must cook by yourself, while “pelmeni” you can buy frozen in every supermarket and just boil it for 5 minutes. So if you are single guy this is your clear choice :)
BTW imho BEER is much more common spice now...with dehydrated squid or bread... :P
right, пойду тараньку с бутылочкой раздавлю.Quote:

In soviet days, diversity of food was limited by products which were available in stores (there was quite a limited set). Nowadays you can go to a nearby megastore and buy virtually anything you like.
From the list above I only eat pelmeni (which are sold frozen) because it takes as much as 5 minutes to cook them.
The tendency is that people begin to value their time and use more convenience foods.
Если будешь есть пельмени, будешь вечно жить как Ленин!
Если будешь трескать водку не пролезет попа в лодку. :twisted:Quote:

Tasty! Especially when spiced with vodka!
Dried fish with vodka? Sounds weird.
Dried fish with beer looks way better.
:wink:Quote:

As long as you buy the beer, sure!Quote:

traditional recipes?
I can send you some to your e-mail since they're quite long to be placed here. What would you prefer?
I think макароны and рыба is also a very Russian food, also smashed potatos... Гречневая каша.
btw what is most common American food? :)
probably burgers; humburger, cheeseburger...right?Quote:

And Peanut Butter!!! Of course!
I can't stand peanut butter.
I love cheeseburgers although, make them myself sometimes. But it is not a healthy food.
OK Pioner, now imagine smearing peanut butter on your cheeseburger!Quote:

There is nothing particularly unhealthy about cheese or hamburger. The bread of a hamburger bun is probably the most unhealthy part but cheese and hamburger meat eaten in moderation can be healthy.Quote:
