Betsey's Russian Recipe Experiment: YOU DECIDE!

Hi folks!

This week, I want to give you (yes YOU!) the opportunity to choose what I cook for our week on Russian food!

My Little Russian Cookbook and Pilsner Urquell (that Matt knocked over shortly after this photo was taken).

I have a few ideas from the Little Russian Cookbook my mother-in-law sent (thanks, Charlotte!):

• Beef Stroganoff (a classic)
• Govyadina v'Smetane (beefsteaks in sour cream)
• Kotletki (Russian cutlets)

So throw out some ideas, or some of your favorite Russian recipes! (NOTE: Given my Runza recipe last week and the resulting overpowering smell of cabbage emanating from everything I own, please suggest something that goes light on the cabbage.) Go ahead, I can take your worst: caviar, borscht, rye bread, vodka, you name it. I'm looking forward to your ideas!
