This $1 Soviet Dish SAVED us

Join me, Julie from Soviet Born, as I take you through the story of vinеgret – a classic salad that warmed countless Soviet winters. This wasn’t just any dish; for many families, it was a symbol of togetherness and resilience in a time of scarcity.

In this episode, we’ll go on a shopping trip to a post-Soviet store to gather the simple, yet iconic ingredients needed for vinеgret – potatoes, carrots, beets, and more. I’ll share how this simple mix of vegetables was transformed into a hearty meal that could last for days, giving strength during tough winters and making the most of what was available. You’ll hear a personal story of how vinеgret helped my family get through some of the hardest times, bringing comfort, flavor, and warmth when we needed it most
