Syrniki are a traditional dish of Russian cuisine that captivates hearts with their delicate taste and airy texture. Their base is cottage cheese, which gives them a slight tang and rich dairy aroma. They are easy to prepare: cottage cheese is mixed with egg yolks, sugar, salt, and vanillin, then flour with baking powder is added to form a soft dough. After that, syrniki are fried in coconut oil until golden brown. The history of syrniki goes back to ancient times when cottage cheese dishes were part of the peasant and urban diet. Today they are served with classic sour cream as well as jam, honey or fresh berries, creating a perfect combination of flavors. This cozy and warming dish is great for breakfast or a sweet snack.
