belarusian cuisine is not only potato pancakes, see for yourself, because the cuisine is a reflection history, culture and character of the people, we will show what they eat in the west and east of our country, how they cook in the predvinie and in polesie, we are going on a journey to... today i am heading to lunenitsa and i am going to get to know the polesie breed of horse, miniature horses that you just want to put in your pocket, learn the secret of the palesian fish soup, be careful, lovers of the island may like it too much, try what lunenitsa tastes like... three dishes that

are contenders for three michelin stars. i arrived in lunenets in order to correct a fatal mistake, the fact is that earlier i called this city incorrectly, luninets. to understand the history of the city and in general, how to correctly call it lunenets or lunets will help me and hello. hello, so what is correct, lunets or lunets? luninets, and now a tricky question. why? one family from the then village of bolshoy lulin, now it is the village of lunin, luninets district, moved to such a swampy area, moved away from their fellow villagers and built a house for themselves, when people passing by asked who was here lives, they answered lunenets, that is, a native of lunin? everything is simple remember: lunenets, we never say, we only say luninets. it may seem that the place of our meeting was chosen with... by chance, but this is not

so: behind us is the oldest building in the city, this is the building of the local history museum, and the building was built in 1929, this is the former home of the jew aysak levin, at different times on the first floor of this building there was a shoemaker's workshop, a bookstore, and also a grocery store. yes, what has this building not seen in its lifetime told, although in fact it is impossible to say.

to the architects. the monuments in the city expressed their gratitude to the builders and there are really many, each symbolizes its own milestone in the history of the city, but it all begins, of course, with the first mention of luninets. the coat of arms of luninets, by the way, is very eloquent. there are arrows that show the four directions of the railway, the junction where luninets is located, and labelia dortmandiana, which grows only on lake beloye, which is not far from here. beloye can rightfully be called a unique natural monument, it is ideal oval in shape, and the water in it is crystal clear, which is a real rarity for polesia. what makes this place even more magical is that you can’t just meet the labelia that grows here, it is listed in the red book. however, polesia can be called a real box of gems. what can’t you find here? so i’m heading to kazhan-gorodok, which can be called a real paradise for...

animals, what polesia is not famous for, cranberry swamps, mosquitoes, excellent fishing, and also amazing breeding horses and donkeys, which... are bred by sergey, sergey, good afternoon, good afternoon, and tell us about your farm, breeding horses, poleska exercise breed, there are only two of them in the republic, honey farms, this is ours and the stolin district, two farms in the entire republic, what an exclusive it turns out to be, poleska exercise breed, the history of the breed's appearance may not be the most ancient, but it is very interesting, well, it was a long time, a long selection, each owner selected a calm, balanced and small horse for himself, which required small ones for himself expenses. our villagers transported hay from across the river to boats on these polesian vyprazhnye in winter, and put it in a boat , this tepoleska-jumping breed, since it is small and light in weight. if we translate it into

numbers, the height of a horse is up to 130 cm at the withers, and the weight is no more than 500 kg. compared to a regular horse, they seem like toys. what are the names of your horses? give me a few names. kastor, belogrilka, rislin. beautiful, beautiful names. and now for comparison, what is the name of the donkeys that live with you. donkeys what's your name? the baby, the boy's name is shrek, shrek? yes, and the girl's name is masha. what an injustice, yes, horses have such beautiful names and kokoslik, it's not his fault, so immediately shrek. well, shrek, greet the guests, hello, handsome, hello, hello, don't be afraid, i 'm more afraid of you myself, listen, can we take him out for a walk, because he

won't let us go home, well, let's go, shrek, let's go for a walk, let's go, let's go, let's go, guys, it takes a lot of strength to... and the ass certainly has an owner, it's not me, he doesn't listen to me, but to his owner listen to what you say, well it's not

worth it, i've already understood this from my own experience, i want to ask you a culinary question, do you cook anything from meat, horses, horses? and so on, well horse meat is a common delicacy, that's why it's on topic about kazakhstan, about food, these five horses that we took, they wanted to send them to kazakhstan, but we were informed in time that they were being sent to kazakhstan for meat for sausage, we got our bearings, went and bought them, the question was provocative, because i don't understand i can and my heart can't accept it either, and even my stomach, how can you, forgive me, eat a horse, a beauty. i'm glad that thanks to sergey the horses have started a new life. one of the stallions will soon even go to kobrin to the children's and youth sports school. i like success stories like these. sergey, we won't eat horses, but we want to eat. what do you think

polesie represents from a culinary point of view? fish soup, fish soup, fish soup. polesie fish soup. and why? and no, i haven't tried polesie fish soup yet. the special flavor of polesie fish soup is given by that they cook it outdoors. as for me, delicious food and a beautiful view are the best combination. there is no better connoisseur. fish soup in polesie than vasily. vasil, good afternoon. good, how is polesie fish soup different from any other fish soup, well, real fish soups too. i can list them according to the recipe. with pleasure. and are you writing it down? we peel the potatoes, wash them with running water, running, polesie water, polesie water , pour in water, how much, well, we need, light a fire, which we have already done in principle, yes, and cook the potatoes separately, before

boiling throw in five bay leaves, two onions and cook, 5 minutes after the water boils, add salt. usually this is done right away, but in our case it is important to choose the right time so that the potatoes do not absorb all the salt. boil for another 5 minutes and then throw in the fish, and not just any, but carp and white. carp and white amur, but polesa it sounds really delicious, in general, after listening to your recipe, vasily, i realized that poleska ukha is the simplest ukha, such a harsh man's ukha, no carrots, and others there are no delicacies here, no, whether it is tasty or not, we will find out soon, well, there is one more secret, what is it, here we have: in front of us there is a mug, wait, vasily, i thought that this mug was just your unfinished coffee, no, no, here

is the secret ingredient, the fly's pollen, as it is called, rababu, but this is in naashren, let's say, from the pollen, yes, it was passed down from our grandfathers, the rababu recipe is quite simple: finely chop and crush two heads of garlic so that it gives juice, then add black pepper pour in the fly. how much is it should it sit? 10 minutes, 10 minutes, drink? no, everyone, if you have poured yourself a mug of fish soup, you, if you like garlic with pepper, you add a spoon to your mug, this is a very important point, i thought that we would actually pour this whole cup into the cauldron, into the pot, yes, but no, that will not be it, well, let's wait 10 minutes, i can't wait to try it. to work up an appetite, i decided to walk along the lake and came across some flat-bottomed boats. in polesie,

the boat was the main means of transport. when the rivers overflowed, otherwise it would be impossible to get to at home or in a store was impossible. it is precisely because of the flat bottom and small sediments that you can move on a flat-bottomed boat in shallow water and put a load, or horses. the boatman was at the back, with the help of such a large oar, he moved the boat, and the horse stood in front. with such a physical load, i can imagine what a brutal appetite the poles men had. in my joy, the fish soup is already ready, all that remains is to serve it correctly. you know, this is a real fishing ritual. we take out each ingredient, each piece of fish, and we salt it, without fear that it will become overly salty. fish, well, at least large sea fish, will not take extra salt. we move to the table, just look at how much there is here, here they are, the hospitable

paleshuks, i could never even think that we would try the fish soup at such a chic table, look at what a wonderful presentation, we eat the fish soup not from plates, we have a separate broth, a separate fish soup, and the fish is laid out separately, that's right, right, everything is right, this is done so that u... some kind of catch, how to do it correctly, how to drink it correctly, with a spoon or straight from the cup, no, straight from the cup, um, the perfect

broth, just perfect, moderately salty, very tasty, and i suppose that it tastes like that, probably, because there are exactly two types of fish, which we talked about, two types of fish on alch wood, such details make poleska fish soup special, not like others, but still for me the distinctive main ingredient is rababu. vasily, and i am the first to communicate with rababu once, right? i 've never seen this strange thing before. how much rabab should i add to my fish soup? for example, one spoon is enough for my taste. well, let's start with one spoon. mix, lift the garlic from the bottom, and add it to the fish soup. well, you can use zapolezskoe bogatyrskoe zdorovie, you're right,

you don't need more, the fish soup instantly became spicy, spicy with a capital letter, garlic and black pepper, plus the perfect broth, this is the most delicious healthy fish soup, garlic is usually not added to the fish soup, and in vain, thanks to it the taste became richer and more interesting. if you like to experiment with spicy, you can also add a piece of ginger to the broth in the oriental manner, very good, i would also like to try the fish, now you can, please, you can. let's take the fish, now this ideal culinary puzzle has come together, the poles-style fish soup with rababu is delicious, i had a rest in nature, it's time to return to the city, many more interesting things await me in luninets.

these people are devoted to their country.

you immerse yourself in this science, especially when you participate in excavations, you begin to understand that real patriotism, that's for me, let's say, yes, it is to devote time to studying my native land, watch the poleshuki project on the belarus 24 tv channel, meet amazing people, immerse myself in their profession, my name is mikhail pasmartsev, i am the head of the scientific department of the pripyatsky national park. the ecosystem is designed in such a way that the violation of one of its components will inevitably lead to the fact that all the others will change. and now we are on the territory of an open -air museum. this museum is a territory with a huge number of historical exhibits. i am the deputy director of the republican landscape

reserve naliboks. our work involves round-the-clock work. responsibilities. on nature conservation cannot be contained within a certain time frame, all the heroes are absolutely different, what unites them is the desire to achieve the best result, first of all i want to convey the need to protect our nature, unique, because in the same europe there are no longer such dense virgin forests that we still have in belarus. our mission is to preserve nature such as it was before human intervention. many people love belarusian ecological... and clean products, i value this, i am proud of it and want the national park to grow and develop with our efforts, and we to serve as an example for the many people who come here. look, the project is one day, on our tv channel. in our show , cheat sheets will not help the participants. the constant of our game

is 42 tricky questions asked in four rounds. the variable is 12 players. ready to show off their erudition and find out who of they really have the right to say, i know, is it true that the ship that sailed for asol under scarlet sails, the heroine of green's fairy tale, was called a dream, if i'm not mistaken, it was called a secret, oh, oops, you can only rely on your own strength here, is it true that there is an active volcano in antarctica, what do we know about antarctica in general, it is the highest continent. and the coldest, i answered yes, there are mountains in antarctica, so there can be volcanoes too, maria, how did you reason, how did you answer, i don't know the answer to the question, but for some reason i decided, that this is definitely not a, look, an intellectually entertaining project, i know, on the belarus 24 tv channel, we have a surprise, today we

are changing, the teachers are going to the main site, and the guys are in the classroom. to support them, we came up with a great idea, there are of course many monuments to steam locomotives in belarus, but this one is especially attractive, this is a monument to the... anniversary of the lesye railways, since in 1886 lunnits became a junction railway station and traffic was already going in four directions to vilna, to gomel, to sarny on pink. they say that visitors were met by a beautiful stone station, the doors of which were opened by a doorman. during the great patriotic war, the station was destroyed for almost

a decade , and a vacant lot was located in this place. the station services huddled in trailers and unsightly houses that remained on the station square. but in 1959 , the station was rebuilt. as far as i understand, luninets became a city precisely because... there is a railway here, right? that's right, in 1884, the first railway line was laid in lunitsa, in 1886 luninets has already become a railway junction. since luninets is one of the most important transport hubs of our country, many people have visited here , including very famous ones. in memory of this, their names were immortalized on a plaque that decorates the station building. a huge number of writers, poets , tolstoy, even emperors, nicholas ii came here, but i see that there is one more place on the board, i will come here tonight and add my name with a marker. the station is

the heart of the city, and it is easy to find confirmation, even just by looking at the street names: here is vokzalnaya street, here is zheleznodorozhnaya street, here is the station square. previously, the station square was the central one, the only thing that has not changed here for many years is the pedestal, the monuments on it have changed, if under poland there was a monument to pelsudski here, a little later a monument to stalin appeared here, well , modern lunenets chose karl marx as his hero, whose monument still stands. if you look carefully around during a walk around the city, you can find for yourself a lot of interesting things. pay attention to the balconies, nothing surprises you: there are balconies, but there are no doors to the buildings, although once these doors belonged to the owner. the building had two daughters who opened the doors and gave piano concerts in the evenings for all interested citizens. however, there were

other entertainments in lunninets. once upon a time, about 100 years ago , there was a cinema on this site, its size is indicated by the remaining foundation, in the basements of the cinema there were drinking establishments. now closed. in lunninets, just like... this a special passion for remaking movie theaters into something else. this building also housed a movie theater 100 years ago, now it's a cafe. but over time, harmony was achieved. movie theaters were no longer removed, they were simply combined, for example, with a butcher's shop. one of the main attractions is, of course, the holy cross church. its history is not very rich. the church is only about 100 years old, but what is definitely worth noting is its beauty. traditionally, the crescent moon on the orthodox cross symbolizes the victory of light over darkness, and now look closely at the crosses of the vozdvizhenskaya church, the crescents on all

the crosses have sharp tips, the cross looks like an anchor. the church was built in a retrospective russian style, which is also described as idealizing the past. the architects sought to repeat the works of art of past eras, but they did not deny modern technology. once upon a time there was a wooden church on this site, and as it usually happens: a stone church is built when a wooden one burns down, but here it is a completely different story. this story can be called market approach. the wooden church worked for a long time while they were building a stone one, as soon as the stone one was built, the wooden one was dismantled and sold to a village in the pinsk region. now i understand why there is a monument to karl marx, who wrote capital, on the station square in lunninets. and this is not the only one. evening has come, and what does this mean that it is time

i did not even notice how time flew by to have a snack. in every small town in our country, soviet- style restaurants have been preserved, this is a restaurant with a large.

can. i wholeheartedly support the idea that culinary traditions should be passed on to future generations. belarusian cuisine is rich in all sorts of recipes, not inferior to overseas ones. i expected that while i was putting the bean barley on my plate, fat would pour out. but it is not here, and it is not here, basically. how did you manage to make a dish in a pot with pork, but not

to make it low-fat. but because the pearl barley and beans tried to be eaten. the dish is prepared quite simply: wash, soak and lightly boil the beans and pearl barley, fry the meat with onions, throw everything into the pot, and cook it in the oven until done. a slightly unusual combination for me of pearl barley and beans, i have never combined them together and have never tried them. all the other ingredients are clear: pearl barley just bursts on the tongue, and beans, they... it cannot be called juicy, yes, they have a completely different texture. having tried it, i can say that the beans have a soft and tender taste, and the meat combines all the ingredients perfectly. what other bean varieties are there? is it possible, for example, to remove the meat, add dried fruits, prunes, you can use prunes, dried fruits, we did it with everything, but it will be dessert too, it will be dessert, but this is when there is lent, indeed

, you can't eat meat during lent, but i'm sure that even without it. you can easily get full with bean porridge. beans are rich in protein, but at the same time they don't make you heavy, so they are a great substitute for meat. lyubov ivanovna, let's move on to the second secret. remind me that this is millet porridge with pumpkin. people also call this porridge golden. when concluding a peace treaty, the princes always cooked together millet porridge, confirmation of friendship and consent. a well-known saying, you can't cook porridge with it - just from this tradition, the standard taste of a wonderful milk, properly millet porridge, but pumpkin here plays the same role that citrus fruits, such as grapefruit or orange, play in overseas dishes, it gives the dish, essentially a sweet milk dish, which children will surely like, it gives sourness, and that lightness that, in

principle... fruits give to any dish. yes, pumpkin is a universal product. it can be sweet goes as a side dish to meat, and pumpkin juice is also made from it. if you take care of it in advance, you can enjoy pumpkin dishes all year round. even at room temperature, pumpkin can be stored until the next harvest. well, the last dish that symbolizes the beauty of all the girls of lunnins is the pancakes devochi. this dish is for belarusians. of course, you won’t surprise lyubov ivanov, but you will definitely attract her, because every belarusian, well, i personally have known this taste since childhood, sweet apple filling from fresh apples, and a delicate pancake sprinkled with powdered sugar, that's right. in fact , luninets is famous throughout the country for its strawberries, but since their time has passed, the signature dessert was served to me with apples, and what kind of apple filling without cinnamon, exactly...

and not only did i correct my mistake, but i fell in love with this region again. here they not only tell interesting...
