What are the delicious foods in Ukraine?

The eating habits of Ukrainians are roughly the same as those of Russia, Belarus, Poland, Czech Republic and other Eastern European countries. They live on pasta and rice and like bread. In summer, Ukrainians have more vegetables and fruits in their diet, but in winter, they can only occasionally see fresh vegetables and fruits on holiday tables. According to Ukrainian custom, lunch and dinner usually have three courses. The first course and the second course are main courses, both of which are hot soups, such as vegetables, potato soup, sweet potato soup, stock soup, fish soup and so on. The second course is generally meat, fish, poultry and egg products, such as fried pork chops, fried steak, fried fish chops, patties, fried chicken and fruit-stuffed ducks, stuffed fish and crock beef. Three courses are usually fruits, sweets or drinks, such as coffee, tea, ice cream and iced dessert. Before the first course, there are sometimes cold dishes, such as salad, caviar, ham and cheese. Bread is mainly eaten when the first course is served.

The Ukrainian nation is unique in cooking art, and "Ukrainian red vegetable soup", "Kiev meat pie", "capital salad" and "duck stuffed with fruit" are all world-renowned Ukrainian cuisines. Nowadays, independent Ukraine has opened many "flavor restaurants" in various places, among which "Ukrainian family meals" chain restaurants in Kiev, "Huangcun" and "Pellevat Ke" restaurants and "Double Goose" fast food restaurant in the center of Kiev provide citizens and tourists with first-class places to taste authentic Ukrainian cuisine.

Ukrainians like to drink red tea and coffee all year round. In summer, Gowasu drinks and draft beer can be seen everywhere in the streets, which are also the main drinks for Ukrainians to cool off. During the festival, men mostly drink vodka white wine (40 degrees), brandy or homemade "Sama Mercury" wine with a degree above 80 degrees, while women mainly drink wine, champagne, dew wine and various drinks.

Local residents especially like to eat a steaming sweet stuffing jiaozi, that is, milk residue or cherry wrapped in jiaozi, seasoned and cooked with sour cream, which is very delicious. In addition, a kind of salted fat pork dipped in salt noodles called "Sala" is also the quintessence of Ukraine. A strong glass of vodka or brandy with a slice of "Sarah" can make you feel the cossack sleeping in the wind. Of course, drinking beer and tearing dried salted fish on the grass along the Dnieper River can also make you feel the leisure of contemporary Ukrainians.
