Oven in pots with potatoes

Cooking in cast iron and pots has Slavic roots. The hostesses cooked food in the recent past in ovens, left dishes inside, and slowly languished in the heat left.

Wealthy families had two sets of pots. Some used on weekdays, others, elegant, served on holidays. The cold climate defined eating habits. Hot dishes of meat, mushrooms, game saturated the Slavs. From the second half of the 19th century, potatoes appeared on the territory of European countries and in Russia. Tubers, tasty and satisfying, became the second bread for many peoples.

With the advent of gas and electric stoves, the tradition of cooking and serving food in pots has lost its significance. You could taste the dish only in restaurants. Only by the end of the last century for cooking at home began to use pottery. Some of the old recipes have become available and popular.
