Cuisine is one of the most mythologized parts of Russian culture. Conversations about it are full of stereotypes: they often distort the facts and create an almost fantastic idea about the origins of dishes and the conditions in which they were cooked and served. Meanwhile, the real history of Russian cuisine is more interesting and complex than the myths created: the changes it underwent were closely connected with social life, politics, economics, and the influence of other cultures. The book by well-known kitchen historians Olga and Pavel Syutkin is a study that puts many points over "i". How did the Russian oven appear, what role did religion play in the formation of cuisine, what were the dishes that are now perceived as stereotypically Russian, how did culinary traditions change in Soviet times? The book contains original recipes for many dishes, including almost forgotten ones; you can make ear, vereshchaka, sbiten or botvinyu even today.
