Russian food etiquette

As the largest country in the world, what cultural etiquette does Russia have? The following is the "Russia of Dietary Etiquette" carefully arranged by me for your reference! I hope I can help you! Please continue to pay attention to more food etiquette!

One of Russia's food etiquette lies in eating habits: Russians pay attention to large quantity and substantial benefits, and the oil is big and the taste is strong. They like sour, spicy and salty food, and prefer fried, fried, roasted and fried food, especially cold dishes. Generally speaking, their food is rougher in preparation.

Generally speaking, Russia is dominated by pasta, and they like to eat rye-baked black bread. In addition to brown bread, Russian famous specialty foods include caviar, pickled cucumber, yogurt and so on. When eating fruit, they don't peel it.

Beverage: Russians are good at drinking cold drinks. Vodka, a strong liquor with the characteristics of this country, is their favorite wine. Besides, they also like to drink a drink called "Gowasu".

When eating, Russians use knives and forks. They are forbidden to make noise when eating, not to drink tea directly with a spoon, and not to let the tea stand upright in the cup. Usually, they only use plates instead of bowls when eating.

When attending Russian banquets, you should praise their dishes and eat as much as possible. Russians put their hands on their throats, which generally means they are full.

Different ethnic groups in Russia have different eating habits;

The whippers in the Russian Federation take baked bread, pilaf, noodles and pies as their staple foods, and milk and goat's milk as their drinks. They are forbidden to eat pork, donkey meat and mule meat.

Bashkir people mainly eat milk, meat and flour products, but also eat potatoes and vegetables; Love to eat sour bread, salt-free bread, shredded pork noodles, horse sausage and so on. I like yogurt, koumiss and tea. I like to add some milk to tea.

Moldovans like to eat fried pancakes, milk residue cakes, pies, porridge, peas and cabbage, and like to drink honey beer.

In addition, Jews in the Russian Federation only eat ruminants with split toes and feet, such as cattle and sheep, and do not eat pork and scaleless fish. Muslims abstain from pork and use pig products.

Intimate reminder: Russians worship salt very much and think that salt has the power to drive away evil spirits and disasters. If someone accidentally knocks over the salt jar on the dining table or spills salt on the ground, it is considered as a sign of family discord. In order to get rid of bad omen, people are always used to picking up spilled salt and sprinkling it on their heads.

Russian food with food etiquette belongs to western food. It adopts a separate dining system, with a knife and fork, a left fork and a right knife, a spoon on the right and a glass in front of the plate. For a formal banquet, change a dish for a knife and fork, set the number of knives and forks, and explain the number of dishes served, but usually, only one set of tableware is used at the end, unless you have other requirements. In addition, we should pay attention to eating different foods and using different knives and forks, such as eating fish with a three-tooth fork, eating other foods with a four-tooth fork, eating cold dishes with a smaller fork, and eating hot dishes with a larger fork.

The procedure of ordering food: first order cold dishes, including all kinds of cooked meat products and salads; Then the first course is soup: red vegetable soup, mixed soup, broth; The second course is the main course, mainly meat, such as steak and fish steak; Desserts on the third course, such as coffee and ice cream. Generally, it is served after eating one, and there is no overlapping of dishes.

How to eat: different foods have different ways to eat: eggs, noodles, salad pudding, fish, etc. cannot be eaten after being cut;

When eating noodles: hold two or three noodles with a fork in your right hand, roll the noodles on the fork after rotation, and then put them in your mouth. Never suck noodles with your mouth, let alone make any noise;

When eating fish: hold a small piece of bread in your left hand and eat it with a fork in your right hand.

When eating boiled eggs: the eggs on the table should not be broken. You should gently crack the shell of the big egg head with a spoon and peel it off. Don't peel off all the eggshells. You must dig them with a spoon to eat. When eating fried eggs, eat the tender part with a spoon and the old part with a fork;

When drinking soup: point the spoon at your mouth and put the soup in your mouth. You can't drink directly from the soup plate with your mouth, let alone make a sucking sound. The spoon should be kept in the soup plate until it is finished.

When eating steak: fork the steak first, then cut it into pieces with a knife, or cut it into several pieces at a time;

Eating chickens and ducks outside should use knives and forks, and things like bones should be put on plates. At home, you can eat them by hand.

The bread is bad and can't be cut with a knife. The knife and fork crossed on the plate, indicating that you have finished your dinner. You can provide coffee or tea.

Russian restaurants, big or small, have no noise when eating, and everyone whispers. Never gesture with a knife and fork. At the banquet, take care of the lady next to you, leave when smoking or talking on the phone, and say hello to the guests around you. At dinner, the larger restaurant will be accompanied by a band. During the break, diners can invite ladies to dance. At this time, the atmosphere in the restaurant was warm and cheerful. I often go to a small restaurant with only four tables. At dinner, there is also a small band of two, playing Russian folk music and singing mostly folk songs. Russian friends told me that they are all old songs of grandparents. But each table has to pay an extra 300 rubles for ear enjoyment.

Russians like to drink. Both men and women have a good capacity for alcohol. Beer and vodka are their favorites. However, a toast does not persuade wine, and a glass of wine is all one mouthful. Therefore, China's "half tea full of wine" is not applicable in Russia. Instead, two-thirds cups are poured, and there is usually a little left. If you are encouraged to propose a toast to a lady, remember to kiss her on the lips at last, otherwise it will be a serious faux pas!
