Ruffe is a small freshwater fish with spiny dorsal and gill fins, covered in slime, with white tender low-fat meat of a sweetish taste and few bones in the fillet. Its main use is a rich clear fish soup, to which it gives body, aroma and a full taste; it is also fried whole in flour until crisp, dried and smoked.

The name of the shchi is due to the Tambov landowner Rakhmanov, who was a great gourmet, taught serfs the art of cooking from French books and, they say, "ate up" the two-million family capital. Looking at the recipe for Rakhmanov's shchi, where the main ingredient is sturgeon, it is easy to believe. Rakhmanov's name is listed in the names of several more extravagant dishes, for example, buckwheat porridge boiled in the juice of fried hazel grouse. We took the recipe and history from the monumental work of Vlad Piskunov "Russian Cuisine. The Best of 500 Years.

The perch in Japanese cuisine is a refined dish that combines the freshness of river fish with the sophistication of Japanese cooking. Its roots can be found in the traditions of Japanese fish casseroles, where tender fish fillet is subtly accented with citrus notes. The perch fillet is marinated with lemon and spices, acquiring a light tanginess and richness of flavor. Baked fish with mandarin slices, fragrant parsley, and creamy Gruyère cheese creates a unique balance of sweetness and saltiness. The creamy texture of sour cream ties all components together, making the dish wonderfully juicy. It pairs perfectly with rice, highlighting the Japanese style of presentation. The dish not only delights the palate but also offers aesthetic pleasure through its vibrant color combination.
