Inside a Traditional Russian House in Siberia 🇷🇺 (making Turkic pies)
Life in a traditional Russian house in Siberia. We visited my Aunties house in Kemerovo, Russia in winter 2023 to show you the one thing we didn't share in our last video about her home; the old traditional "Aga" oven. I have always wanted to share (& experience for myself) how my Auntie cooks in this coal fired oven. So we decided to cook 'Uchpochmak', traditional Turkic Pies from Tatarstan.
If you want to see a full tour of her home, and find out how she and many other Russian people live, then check out our other video here; • VISITING A TRADITIONAL...
In most cities in Russia the majority of people live in large apartment blocks but some still live in their own houses. Living in a house, such as this one, comes with benefits, as well as, lots of hardships, especially in the winter. Is this what you expected a typical house in Russia to look like? How does it compare to where you are from?

These are my favorite videos. Your Auntie’s home is so cozy. Just like the house I grew up in. No fancy furnishings or anything, but it’s so cozy. When it was time for you to leave, I was like, “No. I don’t want to yet.”

My favorite Tatar’s uchpucmaks, Balish, gubadia and many other yummies that our grandma ( abika )) used to bake and cook for us. Missed her and grandpa so much and those happy times when we were together …

Loved your video . The aga stove is not only good for cooking but for heating the kitchen . In my youth on a farm in Africa we spend most of the winter , which could be quite severe , in the kitchen warmed with exactly such a stove . Present always was a kettle with coffee and my grandmother cooking a stew . I was so impressed by the pickled tomatoes that I googled and found a recipe called , Russian grandmothers pickled tomatoes Next week on the farmers market I will buy tasty tomatoes ( no supper stuff for this ) and pickle them .

I love these more personal and insightful videos. Nothing is more important than family and food, although I have to say that I think Matt drew the short straw this time. 😅 Julia standing in the nice warm kitchen cooking with Auntie and then Matt trying valiantly to clear the snow from the roof with Julia laughing at him, had me laughing as well. Matt, you can take the boy out of England, but you can't take England out of the boy. 😅

Hey Matt, those reminded me of pasties! Right! My dad's oldest sister had a coal stove. I remember sitting by it when we came in from outside and warming next to it. I remember the smell too. Brings back old memories. Julia, your auntie reminded me of my aunts (dads two sisters) who always had special treats waiting for when we went over, especially pies and babkas! So good to see that cultures are the same and memories can be shared. Thank you again for the reminders. Be safe....stay warm(hahahaha) we love you all, Chris from Ann Arbor.

Oh what a treat! I would like to try those Turkic Pies, will they be part of the future cooking course ? Last week I was visiting my relatives in a small hamlet in the north of Cordoba province, in the middle of Argentina. The house is over 120 years old and has an original coal stove, ( we call it "cocina economica" here ) but no one has used it for several decades. The next time I visit the house I will try to use it, checking the vent first.... I see that Matt not only has problems opening champagne bottles but also jars! or do you prank him? did you put glue on it? ha ha By the way those tomatoes look tempting too! They come from your aunt's own orchard?? well thanks for another beautiful video, bye from Torrid Buenos Aires !! How I envy that snow!!
