The easiest solution is to find the Russian general store nearest you and stock up.*bratcat* said:What kind, binkley?? I need the recipes, dangit!!
Get various smoked fishes sliced thinly. Don't forget the Silotka (smoked fish of some kind) served in thick chunks, covered in raw onions and olive oil.
Cavier is a classic, of course.
Boil some white potatoes and remove the skins, serve with fresh dill and butter on the side.
Salads from end to end, potato, beet, fish, carrot, egg, on and on.
The breads are excellent. Byela (white) breads are especially good with butter chunks spread on them, for dipping in the fish oils and cleaning up your plate.

In a saucepan add the chopped stems, chopped onions, minced garlic, and butter. Heat slowely until tender. Then remove from the heat and mix in the bread crumbs and cheeses.
Spoon the mixture into the mushroom caps and then arrange the stuffed caps on a cookie sheet and bake in an oven (preheated to 425 degrees) for 8 to 10 minutes.

Crab Dip Pizza
Get a platter and spread a layer of cream cheese over the whole platter. Lay on some fresh crab meat over the top of the cream cheese. Then pour over the crab meat with cocktail sauce. PLace this next to a bowl of crackers or chips and enjoy!
It's really good!
