You know, I'm not the biggest fan of pelmeni, but my friends and I had a pelmeni house party the other day and we bought homemade ones from a farmer. And let me tell you, those were GOOD!

Before refrigerators existed, people would preserve products that needed to be kept cold, such as milk, by putting frogs in them.

In the past, each community had its own method of preservation. The ancient Russian and Finnish communities found a magnificent and very clever solution to this milk preservation: Throwing brown frogs called 'Rana temporaria' into milk...

A scientific study conducted in 2013 proved that this method worked. It was revealed that proteins such as Brevinin 1Tb synthesized from the skins of frogs (and other amphibians) restricted the life of some bacteria. Thus, the Russians and Finns discovered, albeit through trial and error, that they could fight bacteria by adding proteins produced from the skins of frogs to their milk.

Why add condiments?

I will never understand the use of mustard, ketchup, or relish on a sandwhich.

Oh Napoleon has used such phrases "augmented taste sensation" or "because that what is done"

Of the three a decent mustard is the least offensive. It can add to the taste of the sandwich. However, not yellow mustard you find at ball parks and most hot dog carts. At least the delis have a variety of flavors. Don't tell Napoleon this or you will never hear the end of it.

Russians do not have a word for sandwich which we borrowed from the Germans. бутерброд  which translates loosely as bread and butter.

Peter the great brought the concept of a sandwich to Russia but it was the food of the nobility rather than the common people. It was a slice of bread with platters of caviar, salmon and buzhenina (marinated and roasted meat) And only one slice of bead was used.

It was the addition of butter that moved it from the nobility to the middle class.

Personally I was never one for sandwiches. I prefer something more substantial in the middle of the day. But when in Rome....
