British National Cuisine

National cuisine in Britain has remarkably changed in recent decades. It is caused by the fact that people come there from all over the world and bring with them their culinary secrets, their new recipes, their food and sauces. So in all supermarkets in Great Britain one can find vegetables, fruit and spices from all corners of the world.

Do you know what the British have for breakfast? Every morning they have a light breakfast after a first cup of tea. This light breakfast is prepared very early and is considered to be a separate meal. English light breakfast consists of toasts with marmalade, tea or coffee,plus scrambled eggs with beacon, sausages, porridge or cereals with orange juice.

Next meal is between 12 and 14 o’clock. It’s time for a substantial meal – lunch. At this time they have a cup of tea and some tasty cookies which are sold in on London streets in small kiosks. As a rule lunch consists of sandwiches. That’s why at this time of the day the British go to fast-food restaurants where they have hot-dogs or fish in chips (fish filet in bread crumbles with sauce), and French fries and pickles as a garnish.

 Between 15.00 and 18.00 they have tea, which is an English tradition. They drink Traditional English tea in offices, at home, in cafe confectioner’s shops, and they always drink it with scones and muffins. Scones are small round biscuits that are usually cut in halves and eaten with butter or cream. Muffins are small cake in paper wrappings.

Dinner in Britain may be taken at 19.00 (then it is called dinner) or at 23.00 (then it is called supper) and the time depends on the plans for the evering, weather people would stay at home after work or go out to relax. For dinner the British prefer to have something like chicken soup with onion, soup with mutton with vegetables or vegetables, soup with meat. For a garnish the British have traditional Yorkshire pudding. All Englishmen consider Yorkshire cuisine the best in the country and are really proud of it.

And what is national cuisine in other countries? Let’s compare some! French cuisine is elegant and festive. The Chinese is exotic, the Russian is tasty and healthy, it is easy to cook and you don’t need to have much skills and specific ingredients.

Ukrainian Cuisine

Among the first impressions for all the visitors who come to Ukraine is its national food. Ukrainian cuisine is diverse and unique. It has a rich history and is very popular in Slavic countries. There are a lot of tasty dishes in Ukrainian cuisine but the most famous one is perhaps the borscht. It is a vegetable soup, made of beets, cabbage, tomatoes, carrots and potatoes. They also add garlic, onion, dill and meat. There are many varieties of this dish. Every housewife in Ukraine has her own recipe of borscht. Next on the list is the vinegret salad – salad of beetroot with sunflower oil and vinegar. People also add cooked and chopped potatoes, sauerkraut or pickles, onions, herbs and carrots.

Breads and wheat products are also important for Ukrainians. For example, they cook traditional wedding bread called “Korovai”, which is a symbol of national hospitality. Easter cake is known as “Paska”. The recipe of paska varies from place to place, but it usually includes milk, butter, eggs, sugar and raisins. Traditional Ukrainian drink is uzvar – compote, made of dried apples and pears. Those, who like fish, would appreciate ukha. It’s a clear soup, made from various types of fish, for example, bream, catfish or ruff. For the main course Ukrainian guests especially like varenyky or pirohi. They are small pastries or dumplings, which can be stuffed with mashed potatoes, cheese, cherries or strawberries. Of course, everyone knows about Ukrainian salo. Nobody leaves Ukraine not having tried one.

Ode to borsch

       1. In Ukraine, a meal would be incomplete without a soup course. Be the family rich or poor, soup is a daily "must". Soup never boils with a full boil but simmers gently for hours. Hearty soup, enriched with chunks of meat constitutes the basic meal of any peasant family.

       2.  The varieties of soups are as numerous as the cook's imagination is capable of dreaming up. An ingenious homemaker is able to cook a delicious soup from available products, even when the supplies are low. Though Ukrainian soups are numerous, each having its own name, basically they belong to one or another of the following classifications: vegetable, fish, broth, cereal, cream or milk.

      3. Borsch with its many variations is the most popular as well as the national soup of Ukraine. The true old country style borsch is a mildly tart vegetable soup with beets predominating. It has a good chunk of meat, usually pork, cooking in it together with the vegetables. That's why Ukrainian borsch is a substantial dish, and a meal in itself.

      4. Ukrainians have several varieties of borsch, depending on regional and personal preferences and on the season of the year. The spring borsch made of tender young vegetables is favoured by all. One distinctly different spring borsch is made of sorrel leaves. Mild tartness in borsch gives it a specific character.    

 5. The finishing touches to borsch vary with local and personal tastes. Some like it slightly thickened with a tablespoon of flour or raw egg yolks. Others achieve the same results by cooking a finely diced potato along with the vegetables. To finish borsch in a traditional way, most old country cooks mash together a bit of salted pork with some raw onions to a smooth paste. They claim that without this final touch, borsch lacks its character.

      6. Borsch has one great virtue for a busy homemaker. It can be made a day in advance and reheated without any loss of quality. In fact, experts of borsch are convinced beyond any doubt that a reheated borsch from a previous day is more flavourful than when eaten the same day it is made.
