I love Russian food - that is, what little I've tried of it.
But what I have tried is absolutely delicious, in my opinion.
When I was living in San Fran, I'd occasionally stop by a Russian bakery and try some of their things. My favorites were definitely medianyk (Russian honey cake) and pirozhka (or pirozhki?)
These are the top 2 Russian foods I'd like to learn how to make. Sadly, Russian food is hard to find anywhere, unless there happens to be a community of Russian people nearby or something.
Has anyone else tried Russian food, or takes an interest in it, or is Russian and knows about the food?

Either way it's worth looking up. It'd be interesting to hear how you like the food, if you're able to taste it. ^^

Hm, I've never had Russian food.
In fact, I have no idea what it looks/tastes like...
and I don't know what the dishes would be called.
I am now intrigued to try and find place near me and try~ {:<

I'm thrilled you're Russian, too - surely you can tell me about the different kinds of food you guys have over there that just can't be found here in the states. emo
And yes, Pirozhki are sooo tasty. >o< I always got the meat ones, too. I couldn't resist buying at least 2 whenever I visited that restaurant/bakery. XD

We have a restaurant here called Salut (it used to be called Kiev, where I'm from razz ) it's just a small place owned by one of our close friends and she's the head chef. She makes these meat ponchiki (basically the same thing as pirozhki) and I could eat those ALL DAY! they're the most delicious thing ever! And my grandmother is on vacation right now so I can't ask for the recipes yet >.<. Another Russian food, which I'm sure you can find in the states, is borscht. I don't know if that's how it's spelled in English, haha, but in Russian it's borsch. ^_^

A Russian friend of mine once mentioned ponchiki to me, and he made it sound really good. =o They're smaller than Pirozhki, aren't they? Maybe I'm thinking of something else.
Yes, we have borscht at least, and I'm sure it's spelled the same way. =) Funnily enough, for all the access we have to it, I've never tried it. It's made mostly of beets, isn't it?

Oh, I don't live in Russia (Ukraine is where Kiev is razz ) anymore, I live in Canada, haha. Man, do I wish I was back in Russia! I still speak the language, celebrate the holidays, etc... And yes, it is mostly beets. It's made from beets but has different things inside. It's amazing! I have to go but I'll be back ^_^

I'm sure you miss it - I do sometimes wonder why people leave their home, but everyone has a reason, I guess.
Alright, thanks for enlightening me. ^_^

We have a Russian friend. She makes cabbage soup and borscht a lot.
If you can find a native Russian nearby and get along with them it might be worth a shot to start a recipe exchange with them or take turns making for each other. That's what we did.
Found out our friend doesn't know many Russian food recipes but more Indian and German foods oddly.
