Baku Kitchen! An independent reference of traditional food

Belarus

Belarus’s food is built around potato-centred comfort: pancakes, babka and rich pork gravies with forest and birch flavours. Look for Draniki (crisp grated-potato pancakes with smetana, national favorite), Machanka (pork and sausage gravy for dipping pancakes) and Potato babka (grated potato baked with pork belly and onions). Grated potato pancakes fried in oil; potatoes became the Belarusian staple in the nineteenth century and shaped the country’s cooking. This atlas has 32 Belarus dishes catalogued below, from everyday cooking to food kept for festivals and special occasions.
