RUSSL 2000
Reading and Cooking Russian Style

Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2015-2016.

This course will explore various aspects of culinary tradition and culture in Russia through the lens of Russian classic literary pieces in English translation, works of contemporary Russian-American writers, visual art, and international film. A literary journey will take you from the lavish tables of the XVIII century aristocracy, to the hardship and austerity of GULAG prison, to the colorful and savory regional fare of the former Russian Empire and Soviet Union, to the fridge and pantry staples in the everyday life of Russian family. The course includes 3 cooking "labs" in one of the kitchens on West Campus. Each "lab" will be focused on the cuisine of a particular region.

When Offered Spring.
