Talk:Ukrainian cuisine
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Eating Ukrainian food made by my Baba is quite possibly one of the best perks of being Ukrainian. My all-time fav is ooshka (and no, I have no idea how to spell that). You know, "little ears" filled with the mushroom mixture? Anyone else?
Vushka, I think... the little ear-things that you float in borsch? -- cpikas (btw: love of Ukrainian food can also be passed via marriage :) )
[edit] Love of Ukrainian Food in the Genes
Love of Ukrainian Food is hereditary. I love most of the food introduced to me by relatives (except head cheese...); my daughters are wild about it. Ukrainian food was introduced to them without propaganda from the old man; they embraced it with enthusiasm, and another generation was hooked.
A great eclectic website on Ukrainian food is Myron Hlynka's: http://72.14.207.104/search?q=cache:qEBkCe8WYzEJ:www2.uwindsor.ca/~hlynka/ukrecipe.html+%22Ukrainian+Cuisine%22&hl=en Doctor Hlynka, at the University of Windsor, Windsor, Ontario, Canada provides a wide array of definitions, websites (including links to songs on Borscht & Kishka; Frankie Yankovic's rousing 'Who Stole the Kishka?' can now be a sing-a-long!).
Cook Books are also listed: I can personally recommend the delicious recipes in #11, Baba's Cookbook, by Emily Linkiewich.
[edit] English/Ukrainian language format
Thanks for the recent additions, Olechko. I hope you don't mind my fiddling with the format. I've tried to rearrange it so that simple translations of terms appear in English first, but important terms which have no precise English equivalent appear in Ukrainian first. Cheers. —Michael Z. 2005-11-29 21:08 Z
[edit] Unidentified Dish
My baba used to make this breakfast dish I don't know the name for. You take hard-boiled eggs, sausage, bacon, and sliced horseradish and pan fry them all together. Anyone else ever had this? Know what it's called? Kevlar67 23:00, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
