Syrniki

 Today is a holiday, in Canada: Victoria's Birthday/Les Patriotes. 

My favourite kind of holiday: the stores are open but not the

Banks! Have decided to make Russian cottage cheese pancakes 

(syrniki) for breakfast, from the mom-friendly recipe below.

Cottage Cheese Pancakes (Quick & Easy) - Momsdish


Also found a recipe for cottage cheese buns (vatrushka)which are said to be a favourite of 

Vladimir Putin (his mother used to make them). I would hesitate to try, never

having tasted anything like these.




A HAPPY HOLIDAY to ALL!


                                                          *     *     *



Made half the recipe, ate three with maple syrup and fruit salad, will

be freezing these for later use. I actually forgot to put in sugar, but they really

soak up maple syrup. Could be a dangerous habit. Very nice, and hearty.


Oh, and don't try mixing the ingredients with a wire whisk; this is pastry!!😯
