I hope your plov turns out well! As far as I've ever seen, onions and carrots are the standard veggies in plov, though other Central Asian versions might include raisins, apples or even dried apricots. I remember a recipe in one of the first issues of Steppe magazine for a

are there any other veggies besides carrots i can use?

you wouldn't happen to know of any restaurants in DC that make plov do you?

I agree! What's your favorite thing to cook from the cookbook? We like almost everything with cabbage, especially the pirog. And anything with noodles.

My copy of this cookbook is now 13 years old, dog eared and EVOO splattered. I grew up in a Germans from Russia community, went to college in an Armenian community and then taught English in Zaporozh'ye, Ukraine post college. This cookbook is by FAR the BEST collection of recipes I have ever seen. I use this cookbook nearly every day. You can't find better simple soup recipes for a healthy,

Thanks for your thanks.

The goggles are a great image, aren't they, a symbol of the connection between Schizo and the boy Sanzhik. The final scene was curious, and powerful. Thanks for commenting.

Tough and tender
There are two lines of action running next to one another: one is located in the dim world of crime, where illegal fights are shown with brutal bloody actions and the other one is a love story between Shiza the hero of the plot and Zinka a single mother who offers Shiza a warm bed and a family feeling. While Shiza’s criminal career goes steeply down-hill (a bank raid,a murder

Apparently so. According to the results of a study published in 2003, up to 8% of the men in Asia carry a chromosomal marker tied to the Mongol conqueror. That report was covered in many newspapers and magazines (I think I read about it in Smithsonian) -- here's link to an article in the New York Times - Roksonaki on the Air.

Thank you.Danica

Hi Gloria,

I'm looking forward to hearing more of Roksonaki's work too. I tried to get a CD in Washington, DC a few years ago, but the Smithsonian had sold out of everything.

Do you think you'll be able to get a DVD of Shuga in Spain? The only non-blockbuster KZ film released in the US so far is Schizo.

Thanks for reading!

Very interesting! I discovered this group reading your post about roksonaki in the United States and have been surprised by some of their themes, so I hope to get this new work and listen their music in this new adventure. Thanks for sharing. Gloria.

I don't remember seeing plov on a menu either -- I think it's one of those dishes you have to get at somebody's house. Like stew -- everybody's mother makes beef stew, but you don't ever see it at a restaurant.

Good luck, and let us know how your plov turns out!
