Ukrainian Garden

UkrainianBqBlue - Original Print       This is a bouquet of the herbs Ukrainians use most frequently in their cooking. Bay, Dill, Garlic, Horseradish, Mustard, Parsley, Scallions and Vanilla are essential in defining their cuisine. They like tart and textured dishes, so they need Beet Kvas, Fermented Cabbage, and Smetana Sour Cream for flavor enhancement. Presentation is also a matter of pride at their table, as exemplified by their renowned highly-decorated Easter Eggs, or Pysanky. Zakuska (appetizers), Halushky (Noodles), Varenyky (Pierogies), Holubtsi (Stuffed Cabbage), Medivnyk Honey Cake, and Kasha (Grains) can be found on most Ukrainian tables from the modest dacha country cottage to the elegent palace in Kiev. Celery, Cinnamon, Cloves, Onion, Pepper and Poppy would complete their herb garden.

      For centuries Ukraine was called "The Breadbasket of Europe," and plowing and sowing and reaping set the rhythm of life. Because they were located at the crossroads of the European trade routes, they were early influenced by both Greece and Rome across the Black Sea. In the 8th century the Varangians (ancestors of the modern Swedes) settled in Kiev. But despite repeated occupations of their land--by Poles, Mongols, Lithuanians, Turks, Germans and Russians--Ukrainians have kept their independence of spirit and their deep national traditions, with a language, culture and cuisine very distinctly and proudly their own.
