Some small culinary secrets from my family :smile:

  1. When you’re roasting potatoes , add some hot water a few minutes before it’s ready.
  2. You can add a small spoon of vinegar into borch on some of the middle steps . This will make it even better!
  3. Optimal thickness of pieces of meat for kebab(shahlik is how we call it here ) is about 2,5-3 centimeters
  4. You can cook sausages in just 2 minutes by putting them into hot(not cold as usual) water(this is obviously, but I’d never think of that )

Russian pancakes ( i call them granny’s pancakes)

You’ll need:
Milk - 1l
5 eggs
1/3 of a small spoon of salt
2 big spoons of sugar
some baking powder
a bit of a lemon juice
Salad oil
some hot water( 1,5 of a glass)
Flour

So, first of all, you’ll have to fluff milk with eggs, then add sugar and salt, fluff it again
Add flour , till the dough becomes water-like, like a non-fat soar cream
Then add salad oil and hot water( if the dough isn’t so water-like). Leave it be for 15 mins

Then just spoil a bit to a hot frying pan( those pancakes are really thin and it’s hard not to burn them up) Turn your pancake with the other side. ( btw, there’s a saying: the first pancake is like a ball)

That’s all! Pancakes are cool with honey. soar-cream and sugar. You can also make a meat or roe filling .

So…

XMAS RECIPES SHARING , lol
This is one of the very classics: “Dressed herring”

You’ll need:
Potatoes - 3-4 ones(depending on size)
3 carrots
3 beets
2-3 eggs
some cut herring( a usual pack of those sold should be fine)
1 bulb onion
and the king of all salads: mayonnaise!( they say that you can eat a devil with mayonnaise without noticing)

First of all, boil vegetables
When they’re ready, pick a big plate( sometimes cake forms are best, but only if those are big enough and made of glass/ceramic)

Grate the potatoes (use the middle grate) and put it on the bottom
Then grease it evenly with mayonnaise
After that put the herring and grease it with mayonnaise again
Then hash the bulb onion and put it in there( and mayonnaise again)
Middle-grated eggs should go next ( WITH MAYONNAISE!)
Then put grated carrot ( you already know what i’m about to say, don’t you?.. yes, hail the mayonnaise!)
Grate the beet(… mmmmmayonnaiseeeee)

And here it is, ready and yummy! put it in a fridge a few hours before the celebration

No wonder @evooba keep thinking that you’re a foreigner.

#36

@samuel_the_leader I think @evooba would think I’m Guyanese even though I’m not. I’m not even lying about that either. So please believe me. I was born in the U.S.:blush:

When someone claims to be from a place where English is the first language but that someone cannot speak it properly, I will question it, that’s all I’m saying.
