Indigirka

30 minutes
Indigirka is a traditional dish of the northern peoples of Russia, especially the Yakuts. It emerged due to harsh living conditions where fresh fish had to be frozen and consumed without cooking. The taste of Indigirka is fresh, bright, and slightly spicy due to the combination of tender chirra, crunchy red onion, light oiliness, and the piquancy of peppers. Serving it with lime dipped in red pepper adds a refreshing tang to the dish. Indigirka is perfect for lovers of stroganina and connoisseurs of authentic northern cuisine where the freshness of ingredients plays a key role.
