The Food and Cooking of Russia

Overview

From Culinate

While living in Russia in the late 1970s, Lesley Chamberlain accumulated more than 200 recipes, representing the unique combination of techniques and styles that make up Russian cuisine. The result of her efforts is this collection that forms a unique cultural diary, noting how the church has affected attitudes about food, fusion of foreign styles into Russian, and the development of new dishes created during Soviet control due to food shortages.
