About me


Hi everybody and thank you for stopping by! My name is Olga and I’m here to share with you something I think you’ll be interested in. First of all, I’m not a native speaker so bare with me! Please correct me if you feel you can do that. Well, cooking is my hobby, I like it so much, it’s the best I can do even all day long! I’m not a chef, just a usual Russian girl who can’t leave without spending at least a couple of hours a day in the kitchen! And no, I’m not fat at all! :)

After some researches over the internet I found out there are not so many good sites with Russian food recipes! Especially step by step recipes with good photos and comments! I am certainly not an expert in all the things connected to Russian’s food, but I wish this site will be a good challenge to my guests to taste another part of the world! Moreover, it’s time to bust some myths about Russia and Russians! Well, let’s just try to change things together! My plan is to cook Russian food with you! It’s absolutely not difficult, all you need is just go to the kitchen and have fun! That’s the main condition! From my side, I’ll try to do everything to assist and to help you (even with a stupid metric system in most Russian food recipes such as cups, glasses ounces etc.), answer all questions you might have (not especially about cooking :)

I’ll also post as many step-by-step pictures of each meal as possible to make sure that we are on the same page! Don’t worry about anything, cooking is extremely simple! Don’t be afraid of the final result, just trust your taste, find your perfect balance of flavors and have fun!  I’ll also try to tell truthfully about my country, our customs, traditions and anything you may want to know about Russia. No worries, just ask! Now, follow me to the ordinary Russian kitchen and.. remember? HAVE FUN!

HI,
Found you on blog catalog. I know nothing about Russian cooking so it is good to have found your site. Looking forward to trying your recipes.

Hi Olga! Love your name by the way :) And thank you for the Pelmeni recipe. I needed something step by step with pictures. You’re a life saver!!! Keep up the good work.

I am looking forward to browsing through your website!

Great to have a source of Russian recipes! – as you said, far too little is known about Russian food, at least here in Denmark, where I live.

But as I enjoy homemade kefir and salted cucumbers very much, I think there must be many more delicious things to eat, which the iron curtain hitherto prevented me from knowing (okay, I know it’s been a while since said curtain was still there, but nevertheless I know far to little of Eastern European food).

Greetings,

Agnes
