Never heard of fried eggs with jam, but other things are mostly spot-on. I just have so wonder why red caviar seems so small-grain? Also, where are bliny?

- anthonybsd 11y agoAgreed, the "eggs with jam" seems to be genuinely made up in the cookbook. I browsed around author's website and she and her husband seem to be "food historians". In other words they travel quite a bit and people pitch recipes to them. Most of the exotic ones they never verify. In this case it seems someone has played a practical joke on them.
- anthonybsd 11y agoActually, it seems to be even longer lived than that: http://p-syutkin.livejournal.com/177938.html http://p-syutkin.livejournal.com/177938.html It's a reprint from some 1955 book. Something is definitely fishy.
