Your awesome be safe out there
ОтветитьFor the USA ‘Semolina’ = ‘Cream of Wheat’ (most commonly) 😎🤘🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
ОтветитьThe cottage cheese Russians aye was a dry curd, not like we buy at the grocery store today(America) I do not think I've even seen dry curd cottage cheese in years.
Ответитьyour channe should be banned for showing that poverty
ОтветитьWe ate kasha, borscht, that Ukrainian pink soup (cold beet borscht with sour cream), cabbage soup (my dad's favorite) pea soup, crepe pancakes (blin) blin filled with cottage cheese and served with sour cream (delicious) and once in a while mom would make baked pirog filled with meat. My great-aunt would make herring salad with apples. We ate oatmeal or farina for breakfast often. My grandparents came from the Baltic and from Ukraine.
Ответитьpiss off
ОтветитьI'm surprised you don't mention vinegar. Cabbage salad with vinegar is so common in central europe. It's also a cheap product and great for preserving vegetables.
ОтветитьOnly communists put sugar on shit with sour cream.
ОтветитьSome of these are very similar to finnish cuisine
ОтветитьSemolina is a favorite of mine. Makes me smile when I have it in my older years, reminds me of mom. Cottage cheese depends on where you live here in capitalist 'murica, where I live we eat "schmear case und lochvodich" cottage cheese and apple butter.
ОтветитьHello Sergei!
I grew up until I was 22yo in the Socialist Republic of Romania under Ceausescu’s rule. I was born in 1966. So quite a while ago😁
My mom had the same style of cooking. Basically, just like you, I grew up on leftovers. I remember returning from school and getting a bit of food into a small pan from a big pan in the fridge and heating it up on the stove . That was same dish for 2-3 days in a row.
I kept thinking that my mom also didn’t like to cook, so that’s why she kept cooking basically same dishes over and over and over.
But then, later in life, after living almost 40 years her in the great USA, I started changing my views. What was I thinking??? My mom cooked over and over same dishes because there was not much of a choice in what to cook. Especially in the wintertime. We couldn’t just walk willy-nilly to the store and get fresh produce so she can cook healthy for us. The basic staples of everyday cookiing were also rationed. Potatoes were our basic food in the winter especially. She used only pieces of meat in her dishes, just for giving the taste basically , because the fresh meat was rare to find. So these day I think mom was a godess!
These days I consider myself very lucky that I didn’t grow up on fast food, like the majority of kids in the US do these days.We also eat freely lots of onions, garlic and my favorite ingredient vinegar. It was socially acceptable to have a garlic breath. In my class in elementary school, there were at least couple of kids with garlic breath everyday. We were pouring that mujdei (google it if interested) over everything. Also my mom was born in Transylvania, so all of our dishes had some sort of way to spice it up. That might explain why at almost 60 I scored 0 on my trivascular exam!
And just like you, Inwas shocked no one around here have much liquid foods at anytime of the day!
I recently list my wife to cancer and I started just cooking for myself last few months. I’m back to my childhood’s style of foods: lots of soups and stews (thank God for the abundance of fresh produce in the American stores🙏) and basically having same dish for 2-3 days in the row. I haven’t touched fast food in many months and I don’t realy miss it. Everything they make, I can make better. Besides, I know exactly how my food is handled, because I supervise the cooking🤪
Anyways, thanks for bringing this to life and make folks aware of how lucky they are to live in this great country! At least, I’m hoping they realize how lucky they’re that they’re lucky.
Could you buy rendyrket made pierogi and/or dumplings? Or did they have to be made from scratch?
ОтветитьI'm experiencing a gassy project, I cooked three types of beans.
ОтветитьContinuing to watch your top 15 posts.
Ответить"Little lunch" hahaha! Thats sooo much food!
ОтветитьRussian salad is a 'National dish' (in Spain), it has been a surprise to me that in the US you have Russian Salad (as we say in the same way in Spanish). I live in the London, UK.
ОтветитьAs someone who's lactose intolerant, I wouldn't survive, but it all looks and sounds like good food 👍
ОтветитьЙой! Які чудові спогади про їжу нашого дитинства 😊 Вареники із сиром або ліниві - це була їжа вихідного дня. А ще мама смажила сирники, складали їх у чугунчік, додавала домашньої сметани й цукру і тушила 1-2хв. Це була неймовірна смакота!!! Між іншим, я якось пригостила американських родичів салатом Олівʼє. Якось особливо ніхто не зацінив, але одна жіночка сказала, що її сину підліткового віку цей салат дуже сподобався. Попросила рецепт і я знайшла в інтернеті американською мовою 😂 й надіслала їй. Але не певна, що вона знайде солоні огірки, адже в їхніх магазинах тільки мариновані, з оцтом, а це вже зовсім інший смак.

ОтветитьNo offense intended but are you Ukraine or Russian because Soviet Union doesn't exist today
ОтветитьYummy yum like it love it want more of it. Ukraine pea soup
ОтветитьGreat commentary and photos on Soviet food. I love kasha. I cook it often. Here in the USA it is expensive and not so easy to find.
ОтветитьWhen Khrushchev visited the US in 1959, he toured an IBM plant in NY and ate in the employee cafeteria. The thing that impressed him the most was the Formica-covered tables. The tables were easy to clean compared to Russian cafeterias that used table cloths that got soiled quickly and stayed that way throughout lunch. He also had a hot dog in Iowa and really liked French's mustard as compared to the Russian deli style coarse ground version (which I prefer).
ОтветитьYep. I watched it hunnnngry.
Gonna do buckwheat now.
I hrard about pickled food in Russia. Cucumbers etc. Also fish. You skipped it. Maybe because of the region?
Cool never would have thought that lol semolina is or was a common desert at primary schools in England back in 90s
ОтветитьGlory to Ukraine.
ОтветитьI wish some Ukrainian people would set up a restaurant here in Turku Finland, where I live. Especially the soups from Ukrainian cooking, look really delicious.
We have a Georgian restaurant here though. The bread stuff, stews, sauces, etc. are just out of this world amazing.
But what we don't have, is a Ukrainian restaurant serving soups and other local dishes.
now I have to go to the local Russian grocery store
ОтветитьNow we know. The Russian diet was so full of bowel clogging stodge they had to drink lots of Vodka and eat lots of picked cucumbers to get their bowels moving. Ach so!
ОтветитьMy grandpa popovich is from uzghorod Ukrainine ssr he has a farm and had cattle and chickens and when the Germans came they took them all lol
ОтветитьGlad to be born in the USA 🇺🇸 give me some dang pancakes and bacon not milk noodles 🤢
ОтветитьThe US has soup for lunch. That’s what a lot of workmen have in their thermos bottles. Many lunchboxes come with a thermos you can use for soup or for tea or a cold drink. Soup and a sandwich is a very common American lunch. Fast food places like Panera Bread are based around sandwich/soup/salad as a lunch.
ОтветитьMy dad would eat cottage cheese with honey and I found that disgusting. Just like the Americans I liked my cottage cheese salty.
ОтветитьThank you. I grew up in America amd prefer your favorite dishes over most American foods. All looks very good.
ОтветитьThe food looks great.. Need to find a Russian restaurant to try some of this . Neat video
ОтветитьI love talking to people and asking them what they think people in the modern USSR ate. I vividly remember a classmate around 1993 do a presentation claiming that people in big cities like Moscow used to wait in lines for bread for so long they would die of starvation and that rat casserole became a delicacy. Even then, when I was a little kid I remember thinking "this sounds like bullshit." If only I'd known I too could've got a high paying job with the heritage foundation, maybe I'd have done a masters thesis on the cooking of rodents in the late USSR.
Ответитьfind that interesting that billion or broth cubes went a thing in the soviet union it seems like something that would be common as its a cheap way to provide alot of flavor to food
ОтветитьI'm genuinely in awe with your struggles to translate concepts, is it intentional, to make the topic of your videos appear more mysterious than they really should be.
Can't say it's a limited vocabulary, after so many years and multiple books you always advertise.
Here's a breakdown of the exotic and mysterious foods presented here:
1. Kasha = porridge.
2. Man'naya Kasha = semolina porridge.
3. Sirniki = pancakes.
4. Lenivei vareniki = nyoki (Gnocchi).
5. Pelmeni = dumplings.
6. Vareniki = also dumplings.
For real bro, no need to mistify the subjects you cover.
Here in America we do have cottage cheese sweet style, usually with fruit. And it’s kind of a chunky yogurt consistency instead of the dry version you showed
ОтветитьCool Video! One tip: If google translator is not giving sth sensible for example the "kasza manna", you can sometimes crosscheck it with wikipedia switching between languagues. Many things have own wiki articles. :)
ОтветитьButterbrot sounds pretty german to me. 😊
ОтветитьWhat can you tell us about the quantity and quality of pots, pans, cutting boards and other kitchen supplies?
ОтветитьYou can have cottage cheese sweet or savoury. So the savoury one calls for sourcceeam, green onions, salt and pepper and this is great for breakfast.
