[EN] Ukraine Through Borshch | The Fuse #153

“Sometimes we argue. But then we go home, eat borshch, and it brings us together. Only in recent years have we finally begun to understand what traditional Ukrainian cuisine really is. And it is not the food created during the Soviet era. Our national cuisine is part of Ukrainian identity and part of our childhood memories,” says this week’s guest on the main interview of Drošinātājs, chef Yevhen Klopotenko, in conversation with Rihards Plūme. He has created the project “Cult Food”, which promotes traditional Ukrainian cuisine both at home and abroad, while also working to improve the quality of food in schools and in the army.   This is a complete interview without translation from the Latvian Radio’s podcast "Drošinātājs" (“The Fuse”), dedicated to the people of Ukraine and their fight against Russian aggression.
