Russian food doesn’t exactly top the popularity charts, and that’s really sad because this huge country has so much to offer other than vodka and caviar.
Here is a list of 18 Russian dishes you should definitely try if you find yourself in Moscow.
16. Sweet-and-Sour Cabbage
What is it: Cabbage cooked in red wine vinegar, applesauce, butter and onions. Diced apples, sugar, bay leaves and cloves added on top.
What does it taste like: Just as the name describes – sweet and sour. The apple and applesauce balances out the sourness of the red wine vinegar and complements the crunch of the cabbage.
