What dishes of domestic cuisine are not given to foreigners Bashny.Net

Residents of the former Soviet Union still differ from their European neighbors in gastronomic preferences. Ours. staple They are somewhat specific by their standards. And not by accident.



While Europe buys pasta and fries during a pandemic, our food basket is filled with completely different products. Let's see if the average tastes of the CIS residents agree with yours or not.

Of course, buckwheat porridge is unlikely to fit under the title of “favorite dish of all time”. But as a side dish, she's pretty good. Combine it with stew or mushrooms with fried onions - and a great dinner is ready. In addition, some gourmets prefer to eat it with milk and sugar, which is also the case. And if you remember that buckwheat is a storehouse of complex carbohydrates and in general, the dish is a dietary dish. Athletes and models will not mind eating it.



In Europe, buckwheat is not in particular demand, except as flour for special baking. And in vain, because it grows everywhere, is not prone to diseases and is easily stored in glass or paper containers. Just remember how many men lived on almost one buckwheat porridge when they served in the army. In short, buckwheat is not lost!

First of all, we must say that rye bread was baked here in the XI century. In the official monuments of the XVI century it is stated that only rye bread was at least 25 types. White wheat bread was available only to the rich, while the crispy crust of black bread could afford almost any poor person.

654,000.

The popularity of rye bread lies in its universality. You can eat anything with it: fish, meat, first courses, even pickled vegetables (onion, pepper, garlic, cucumber) and just butter with salt. A fresh fragrant pulp of black bread, cooked strictly according to technology, will cause the appetite of anyone. Callous remnants, if any, can safely be sent to a large glass jar and poured with water - kvass will turn out excellent!



Natural kvass Speaking of kvass. It was made on our land more than a millennium ago. Can you imagine? This product has almost no analogues around the world, and foreigners who once tried it for a long time can not understand what reminds them of its taste. Kvass could always be drunk, even church fasts did not forbid his presence on the table. And he was in everyone’s pocket: a poor man and a monk, not to mention merchants and landlords.



As you know, kvass has a good effect on the digestive, genitourinary and endocrine systems of a person. The presence of yeast mushrooms in the drink and make it so useful. In addition, live kvass helps to improve the skin and small vessels. But despite this, due to the large amount of sugar and yeast, kvass contributes to the appearance of extra pounds, especially in the body of a woman. So we advise you to use it carefully!



The eternal question: with what tastier okroshka, with kvass or sour cream? The answer in any large company will always be controversial. Different people like different tastes. But what can be said with some accuracy is that sour cream will suit much better. Especially if it is homemade and made according to a folk recipe, and not a sour misunderstanding.



The world is full of analogues of classic sour cream, which are still more like yogurt or cream cheese. Interestingly, sour cream is ideal for our kitchen: blueberries, dumplings, any first dishes, pancakes, potatoes and even cottage cheese whipped with sugar. Sour cream will taste good everywhere. And if a person closely monitors his figure, low-fat sour cream will allow him to enjoy the taste, without experiencing any remorse.

Salo Another product of white color, which can be delighted, especially in nature and with a good snack in addition. Fragrant, fresh bread and lard in thin slices under a young onion, sour cucumber or tomato. Salo can not be compared with bacon, since these are two completely different products, differing in taste and consistency. Many foreigners who first tasted lard, note that at first it is even frightening, but gradually you can very strongly penetrate and try it with new products.



There is a myth that claims that fat can be easily recovered. Well, that's not true. Lard in moderate amounts and without salt not only saturates the body with healthy fats, but also prevents the appearance of “orange peel”, that is, cellulite. But the bread, which we like to rub with garlic to lard, contains carbohydrates and can easily bring a lot of unnecessary calories. Although garlic also fights cellulite, so the duo is really good. In other words, eat fat in moderation, do not overdo it with bread, and your figure will become slender like cypress!

I am sure you have tried each of these products. Agree, each of them has a good taste in high-quality cooking. So, if you have friends abroad, do not forget to treat them to something native, quality and tasty. And rest assured, they will appreciate it.
