3. Reading
T: As it was mentioned our Ukrainian cuisine is one of the most popular ones. Let’s read about our national dish. Can you guess what dish it is? Of course, it’s our Ukrainian borshch!
You must read the text and do two tasks: match the paragraphs with their headings and choose the correct answer.
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 final5 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.
Task 1: Match the paragraphs with their headings.
A) How to finish borsch
B) Varieties of borsch
C) A good feature of borsch
D) The necessity of soup for Ukrainians
E) The diversity of soups
F) The national soup of Ukraine
Task 2: Read the text more carefully and choose the best answer a, b or c.
1. In Ukraine, a meal would be imperfect without ....
a) a soup course
b) a borsch course
c) a "kasha" course
2. When the supplies are low, an ingenious homemaker....
a) is able to cook a delicious soup from any products he can find at home
b) is not able to cook a delicious soup from available products
c) has to buy at the market all the necessary ingredients to cook a delicious soup
3. The true old country style borsch is....
a) a mildly sweet vegetable soup with carrot predominating
b) a mildly sweet vegetable soup with beets predominating
c) a mildly tart vegetable soup with beets predominating
4. One distinctly different spring borsch is made of....
a) nettle leaves
b) sorrel leaves
c) burdock leaves
5. To finish borsch in a traditional way, most old country cooks mash together a bit of....... to a smooth paste.

b) salted beef with some raw garlic
c) salted pork with some raw onions
6. Borsch can be made a day in advance and reheated....

4. Speaking
T: You know, eating habits differ from country to country and each country has its unique cooking traditions. Today we have guests from different countries and let’s listen to them. They are going to tell us about their traditional dishes.
Ukraine:
To begin with, I’d like to introduce myself. My name is … I’d like to tell you about our national 6 cuisine.
Ukrainian cuisine is very varied, and Ukrainians are known for their hospitality. They never miss a chance to invite you to a family gathering. Women gladly spend a lot of time and energy in the kitchen cooking for family and guests.
The dishes of Ukrainian cuisine are popular far beyond the borders of the country. The most favourite and the most famous of them is Ukrainian borshch with pampushkas. Borshch is a soup based on beetroot with meat and vegetables with served with sour cream. There are about 30 kinds of Ukrainian borshch. The dish is very substantial and sustaining.
Ukrainian cuisine is rich in pork dishes: home-made sausages, kruchenyky, aspic,ovenbaked ham and pechenia. And of course, the leading position belongs to “salo” which can be eaten fresh, salted and baked.
Halushky, varenyky and mlyntsi are also widely spread in Ukraine.
Fish dishes are an essential part of Ukrainian cuisine, including carp baked under sour cream, carp baked in honey, sichenyky, etc.
Ukrainians have a tradition of drinking spirits. Horilka is a popular spirit for adults, mostly men. Women enjoy wine, nalyvka or vyshnivka.
Italy:
Good morning. I’m from Italy and my name is … Italian cuisine is one of the most popular cuisines in the world. In many countries Italian restaurants with typical Italian dishes such as pizza and pasta can be found in nearly every town.
Italy is renowned for its olive oil, cured meat, cheese and rich tomato sauces.
Olive oil is the predominant oil used in cooking and seasoning.
Italy is surrounded by the sea that’s why fish and seafood are very popular foods. The cuisine uses a lot of fresh, dried, ground herbs and spices to prepare sauces and dishes.
And I should say that you haven’t eaten pizza until you’ve eaten Italian pizza, and you can probably say the same for pasta too.
Japan:
If we asked you to think of one Japanese food, what comes to your mind? Sushi, raw fish, tempura, tofu? Good.
Japanese cuisine is full of variety of gifts of the sea, vegetables, soya and beans. Rice has been the most important food in Japanese cuisine.
Our national meal is sushi. I don’t think there are many people nowadays who haven’t heard or haven’t tasted sushi. The most common ingredients are sushi rice, tuna, squid and prawns.
'Tempura is another national dish made of seafood and vegetables deep fried in tempura batter.
Shiit'ake are the most popular mushrooms in Japanese cooking.
A friendly advice from me: try to avoid the kind of sushi which contains fugu, it can cause severe poisoning if not prepared properly.
Bulgaria:
My name is Tsvetelina Mechkova and I’m from Bulgaria. I’d like to tell you about our national food. Bread takes the main place in Bulgarian cooking. Our national dish is banitsa. This is a pie with curd. Other national dishes include lyutenitsa (pepper relish) and tarator (cold soup).
Traditional Bulgarian foods include fresh and pickled vegetables, salads, soups, stuffed vegetables, spicy sausages and cheese dishes. Salad serves with every meal. Cold and hot soups are typical for my country. And, of course, I should mention of our national vegetable, Bulgarian pepper, which we like and cook in different forms.
The national drinks are well-known sour milk and Bulgarian wine.
Russia:
Original Russian cuisine is famous for exotic soups, cabbage schi and solyanka, which is made of7 assorted meats. Russians are great lovers of pelmeni, small Siberian meat pies boiled in broth.
Every housewife of any experience has her own recipes for pies, pickles, and sauerkraut. Even more varied is the choice of recipes for mushrooms, one of the most abundant gifts of our woods. They are fried, pickled, salted, boiled and what not.
"No dinner without bread," goes the Russian saying. As to rye bread, Russians eat more of it than any nation in the world--a peculiarity of the Russian diet.
As the Russian custom has it, a festive table isn't worth this name without a bottle of vodka. Of our folk soft drinks, kvass is the best-known. It goes down best on a sultry summer day. If you add it to chopped-up meat and vegetables, you get okroshka, a delicious cold soup which is the favorite dish of many Russian especially in the summer time.
Great Britain:
If you ask foreigners to name some typically English dishes, they will probably say "Fish and chips" then stop. It is disappointing, but true that, there is no tradition in England of eating in restaurants, because the food doesn't lend itself to such preparation. English cooking is found at home.
You cannot really start your day in Britain without having the traditional full English breakfast. A full English breakfast comprise of bacon, sausages, fried tomatoes, fried eggs and toast.
After breakfast is done, we move on to the traditional lunch. Lunch is somewhat similar to the Sunday dinner in an American home where it is a big occasion for the whole family. There is often the all-important roast which is a piece of roast meat from either chicken, pork, beef or lamb, served with roast potatoes and boiled cabbages.
When the clock strikes five, it signals the start of tea-time. This is a favorite meal for the British. Tea-time usually consists of biscuits and cakes to go with the tea. There are many traditional biscuits and cakes that are usually served such as scones, shortbread biscuits and jam tarts.
Supper is a small meal just before you go to bed. Some people would just have cocoa and cheese while others might have bread with ham and a cup of tea.
There are other dishes that make up traditional British cuisine:
- Bangers and Mash – Sausages served with mash potatoes.
- Shepherd’s Pie – A layer of minced lamb covered with mash potatoes. There are many variations for this dish with the minced lamb replaced by either ground beef or seafood.
- Steak and Kidney Pie – Needs no explanation, the name says it all.
- Fish and Chips – An old British favorite.
- Chicken Tikka Masala – It might sound Indian but this is a British dish born and bred.
5. Grammar practice
T: I’m glad you know a lot about traditional dishes of different countries. It’s time for us to revise our grammar material.
