But who wants a cooked pickle? ;-)


My ethnic Russian daughter-in-law, just arrived from Tatarstan, made a
Russian soup, into which she chopped several dill pickles.

Wonderful stuff!

Recipe? ;-) It's getting into soup/curry/stew weather here in the
frozen* north.

* Actually just cold nasty rain, but there was some snow earlier this
week.

Recipe? For _STEW_??!!?????

You brown some meat, throw it into a pot with some veggies, add enough
water so it doesn't boil dry, cover it, and simmer it until it starts to
smell like food. ;-)

I know how to make stew, without a recipe, but it wouldn't taste like
Russian stuff with capers, olives and pickles. I guess you have to
make it only from stuff that would be available in the Russian
countryside in February, and spice it up with the appropriate
crunchy/salty bits.

(Then again, I used to watch Mom cook. ;-) )

Cheers!
