learn_russianHi,
Do you know any typical Russian cookies that are made traditionally around Christmas and/or New Year? Do you have recipes?
I want to surprise my family with home-made Russian cookies, but I am far from being an experienced cook, so I’d prefer easy recipes.
Спасибо и с наступающим Рождеством или Новым годом!

I'd say that in Russia we bake cakes more usually than cookies for holidays. But these are good)

Date: 2006-12-19 10:39 pm (UTC)I don't know if you can read Russian, if yes, you can check this very site.
Personally, I like Honey Cake and Napoleon, these recipes of them look rather familiar for me:

What about you? ;)

Date: 2006-12-19 10:41 pm (UTC)Yes, I can read Russian. :) I’ve been looking for small translation projects, and I think these will probably be good ones.
My favorite cakes have been experiments—I have a recipe for a basic cake, and then I add things in and see how it tastes. The last one that I really liked had molasses and fresh ginger in it.

Date: 2006-12-19 11:17 pm (UTC)Hmmm. The торт медовик recipe calls for «0,5 порошка ванилина» in the заварной крем. Is порошка being used as a quantity here? (Another recipe for the same thing said «0,5 пакетика порошка ванилина», but none of my dictionaries know what a пакетик is.)

Date: 2006-12-20 03:15 am (UTC)Ah, okay. 1g of vanilla … there was a comment that said to use 0,5 ч. ложка or something of it, so I wrote that down.
And no, I’m holding off on cooking until I’ve translated the recipes. ;) I’ve learned my lessons on cooking before I know what I’m doing.

Cause I like it only if I or my mom cooked it.
