Homemade preserves are part of the cultural fabric of many nations. In every country with short, warm summers and long, cold winters, there are unique traditions for preserving vegetables, fruits and spices. Most traditions are passed down from generation to generation without any changes. Chef Vladimir Pavlov deeply values and upholds family culinary traditions. That’s why he suggests, as they say, keeping the “foundation” unchanged, but expanding it with interesting recipes that will appeal even to the most discerning connoisseurs of gastronomic heritage.

With walnuts, chocolate and balsamic vinegar! In “The Geography of Taste”. Only on Russian Travel Guide.
