Fish dumplings are a true embodiment of Russian cuisine, where traditions blend with the richness of natural flavors. This recipe originates from northern regions where fish has always played a key role in nutrition. The delicate dough made from wheat flour encases a juicy filling of pike perch infused with the aromas of dill and a hint of creaminess from milk. They are boiled in a hearty fish broth, making their taste particularly rich and highlighting the marine notes. Served hot, often with a spoonful of sour cream or a drop of vinegar to add zest. Perfect for a cozy family dinner or festive table, filling the home with warmth and the aromas of freshly cooked dumplings.
