Russian Hospitality Even some of the most delicious recipes gathered while working on a story don't make it into SAVEUR.
Chicken-and-Vegetable Borscht There are as many versions of the Russian beet soup borscht as there are cooks. This one stands alone.
The Captain's Chicken This classic Russian dish known as captain's chicken turns an ordinary chicken into the very likeness of a captain, with tomato buttons, a hard-cooked egg head, and a carrot nose.
Tom's Vladivostok Potato Salad This potato salad—flavored with crabmeat, salmon caviar, and garlic-laced mayonnaise—was created by Tom Hudgins when he lived in the Russian city of Vladivostok.
Yankee Clams Most North American hardshell clams, or quahogs, belong to a single species, Mercenaria mercenaria, but the different names they go by can be confusing—our primer sorts it all out for you.
Indian Pudding This dessert is rich, subtly spiced with cinnamon and ginger, and sweetened with molasses.
