Buckwheat with patissons in a pot is a fragrant dish of Russian cuisine that combines the tenderness of baked vegetables and the rich flavor of minced meat. Buckwheat groats soaked in meat broth acquire softness and a special depth of taste, while patissons add a light freshness and sweet undertone. This dish is historically linked to the tradition of cooking in clay pots, making it particularly cozy and homely. Baked in the oven, buckwheat perfectly retains its texture, and spices enhance its natural aroma. The dish is suitable for both everyday dinners and festive feasts. Garnished with fresh parsley, it not only pleases the eye but also adds an extra note of freshness. Served hot, best with homemade bread or sour cream.
