If Dovlatov were writing a cookbook, it would be like Mikhail Plotnikov's: brilliant, ironic, stylistically flawless. Of course, "What is our life? Food!" - is more than just a recipe book. It is a fascinating read for all ages. After all, its author, the legendary host of the popular show "Dinner with the Provincial" on the radio "Silver Rain" and "Lady and Cook" on TV Center, has not only phenomenal culinary skills, but also philological education and a wealth of life experience. Readers will have to travel through time and space: for example, to Soviet Volgograd, where Mikhail Plotnikov spent his happy childhood. The best recipes of his mother's mashed potatoes, lecho and baked fish stuffed with vegetables come from his childhood. Then together with the author we will travel to France, Hungary, Israel, Thailand, Syria, Georgia, Udmurtia, Ukraine and will cook the most delicious chicken in honey, egg pate, chopped liver with lard, tom kha gai soup, mukhammara, chashushuli and sacebeli, mushroom okroshka and, of course, borscht. We will also set fire to chacha, taste fresh figs and pure vanillin, make cutlets and dumplings, invent night pasta and experiment in every possible way. Plotnikov generously shares his experience, knowledge, good mood and tasty trivia. Although the most "tasty" in this book is probably the language, which the reader, without exaggeration, will enjoy.
