February 14 is the day of Saint Tryphon, the patron saint of hunters, in for Russian Orthodox. In Russia, Saint Tryphon holds a special place among hunters and those involved in rural occupations. The reverence for him stems from both religious devotion and practical associations with nature and survival. In pre-revolutionary Russia, many hunters regarded Saint Tryphon as their heavenly protector because he was believed to have dominion over wild animals and the elements. On the eve of his feast day, hunters traditionally prepared themselves spiritually through fasting and prayer. They would ask for Saint Tryphon’s intercession before embarking on expeditions into the forest. It was customary for them to visit churches dedicated to Saint Tryphon or leave offerings at shrines in his honor. Some even carried small icons of the saint with them while hunting as talismans for safety and success. The connection between Saint Tryphon and hunters became deeply ingrained in Russian folklore a

SHCHI – Russian Sauerkraut soup with wild meat and porcini mushrooms. This traditional Russian recipe, like many other recipes of Russian cuisine, may seem very strange. But believe me, Russians know a lot about winter warming soups. It just needs to be tried! This strange combination of seemingly incompatible ingredients creates the uniqueness of Russian cuisine, which is replete with nutritious and vitamin-rich dishes in the cold season. I got this unusual version of the traditional Russian soup as a result of an experiment that exceeded all expectations. I decided to add wild roe deer meat and porcini mushrooms to the classic cabbage soup recipe, which gave the dish a special tenderness and rich taste and make it a real hunting recipe. Russian sour cabbage soup, or SHCHI, that I prepared using wild roe deer meat hunted in Belarus, is a unique interpretation of this classic dish. To enhance the flavors, I added cranberries from the Nalibokskaya Pushcha, known for their vibrant ta

Myotts COUNTRY LIFE Hand Engraved Dinnerware Set (1982) I recently came across an exquisite dinnerware set from Myotts® that caught my attention - particularly for its nostalgic charm and attention to detail. This set, dating back to 1982, is part of the COUNTRY LIFE collection, and it's evident that a lot of care went into its design and craftsmanship. First and foremost, the hand-engraved English scenes on each piece add a unique character that sets it apart from mass-produced dinnerware. The illustrations depict the culture and traditions of English hunting, hunting in England on horseback, the love of English hounds, the strength of passionate hunters, perfectly capturing the essence of real English country life and the traditions of hunters. Each piece feels like a little work of art, making every meal feel special. The colors are declared as "permanent," and I must say that after using this set for several occasions, they have held up remarkably well. There’s no fading or wea
