Description
This recipe is taken from the book 'Food Journey: Traditions, Recipes, Street Food. A Culinary Adventure through 11 Football Capitals of Russia. Look and Try!'. John Smith, founder of 'Smith's Kitchen': 'Carp is a river fish from the carp family. When prepared with root vegetables, it becomes extraordinarily tender, flavorful, and aromatic. Every fish has a specific smell. To soften this aroma, Russian cuisine has historically used a large amount of root vegetables, onions, and spices when cooking fish, and often added cucumber brine (1/2 cup of brine per 1 liter of water) to the dish.'
