When I was studying and working in the former Soviet Union I quickly discovered that not eating mushrooms really wasn't an option if I wanted to be a good guest. Thankfully I soon found I enjoyed many of the ways mushrooms are prepared in Russian and Ukrainian cuisine. Today's recipe features one of my favourites: Buckwheat kasha with mushrooms. I've generally followed Olga's lovely recipe with some borrowings from Adina's recipe and adaptations to better fit my own taste. If you try it out I hope you enjoy it as much as I have, and do!
