Russia.
A good reason
to eat together.

Russian cooking spans very different regions and shares many culinary influences with neighbouring countries. Our collection focuses on hearty dishes and several shashlik variations.

Shashlik is prepared differently across countries and families. Here are the existing pork, chicken and beef versions, plus oven, pan and pot variations.

The collection combines classic references and personal variations. Origin labels follow the existing cookbook and do not claim an exclusive origin.

A little cooking know-how

Good ingredients.
Simply explained.

Three tips to get you started. Each recipe gives its precise quantities, cooking times and variations.

Marinating in the fridge

Cover and refrigerate meat. Raw marinade must not be used as a finished sauce without cooking.

Cutting evenly

Similar-sized pieces cook more reliably. Different meats require their own cooking times.

Onions for flavour

Onions in a marinade and onions on the grill have different roles. Thin pieces can burn quickly over direct heat.
