An Ancient Russian Dish

An ancient Russian dish

Here’s a piece of information about the Russian cuisine!

Пирог, пироги — pirog (sing.), pirogi (plur.)

Pirog is a baked case of dough with a sweet or savoury filling. It’s pretty much a regular pie. Pirog is one of the oldest dishes in Russia that our grandmothers bake to this day.

In ancient Russia, there were a lot of traditions regarding the consumption of a pirog. For example, the first bite of a pirog was always taken by the oldest man in the family. After him were younger men, then women and children. People started noticing how inconvenient these traditions were, so Russian women started baking small pirogs. They were more convenient to eat and to even pack for the road. This is how pirozhki (пирожки) were created.

Пирожок, пирожки — pirozhok (sing.), pirozhki (plur.)

There is no known date of when pirozhki were created, but some sources say that they were already around when Ivan the Terrible was ruling Russia (1533).

The most popular flavours of pirozhki are: apple jam, meat, smashed potatoes, eggs and fish.

Another Improvisation post! Thank you for the feedback and the suggestions! Fun fact: Dr. Dolittle's name in Russian is Айболи́т (Aibolit) which is a combination of a Russian exclamation «Ай!» and the word «Боли́т» («hurts»). The Russian translators really wanted to make his name speak for itself so they literally named him «Ouch, (it) hurts».

Actually, we don't say 'бутылированная вода' that often because I guess it takes a lot of time to say it. We prefer saying something like 'вода в бутылке' (voda v butilke) which means 'water in a bottle'. Although it doesn't mean that 'бутылированная вода' is not used at all.

Hey guys. Just wanted to say that I'm not going to post for some time. I don't know how long it will last, but I won't be here until summer for sure.

My heart goes out to Ukraine. If you want to help, please donate to the military charities that I posted down below.

Stay safe. And let's hope peace will come again soon.

The Road Sign Says:

The road sign says:

Be the one who makes you happy. Originally it was: "Be with the one who makes you happy", but somehow "with" (c) dimmed.

Interestingly, it works in Russian both with and without C because the instrumental case is needed either way.
