How did the Soviet Union celebrate family? Despite the total shortage of items, especially videos, the tables were indeed filled with delicious dishes and a variety of dishes. The table may be a bit messy, but the rich dishes shown in the photos are not all.
In the Soviet Union, everything depends on the region. The supply is different. For example, Siberian is not rich in food. But Krasnoyarsk did not touch such a situation. There, you can buy a whole bucket of berries for just three rubles . This is the happiness that workers with a salary of seventy rubles a month can also achieve.
Feast of the Soviet Union
However, all festivals were held grand celebrations.
low-key feast
For example, we have never had a banquet without cakes. If there is no cake, it is a sweet tooth, and then everyone will taste the cake or sweet tooth while drinking tea.
Sausage is also a must. This delicacy is specially bought for holiday tables; it is the same in daily life. There are always several types of sausages on the table for family members to eat.
Home banquet
Dumplings. They are handmade and of course they are very delicious. Of course, you can find them in the store, but the dumplings you bought from the store taste bad. But if it is homemade dumplings...it's really delicious!
Salad, jelly, herring under the leather coat... Sliced cheese is a must, sandwich. You can't do without it, either.

In the Soviet era, there were red and black caviar, yes, the shops were not available every day, but for holidays it would definitely appear on the family table.
There are also pickled vegetables on the festive table.

The drinks are not very different. But there is a constant vodka wine bottle. Despite the famous Soviet champagne, it was not suitable for all Soviets.
