Hello, my dearest friends! Due to its geographical features and historical development, for several centuries the Kuban penetrated and formed into one whole elements of cultures and life of different peoples.
The basis of economic activity of the prevailing rural population was agriculture. The grain collected at home and brought to the mill to wealthy farmers.
Housing bulk of the population of the Kuban in the late XIX-early XX century built mainly from local building materials: clay, reeds, straw and firewood, and only in the forest foothills built wooden buildings.
At the exhibition we saw a variety of household items with instruments of labor of the Kuban Cossacks. There was a real oven and wood shafts.
The organizers of the exhibition took care of everything. From different villages of Krasnodar region brought real tubs, buckets, barrels and all sorts of kitchen utensils to show how to live and what our great-grandmothers were preparing.
There were also carts Laden with crops harvested directly from the fields. Sacks of grain and corn, so much abundance.
Few young people today have seen firsthand the long pokers, manners, a plow and a spinning wheel. Many did not know and what is the coil :-)
Hostess cooked in such ovens products from unleavened dough, it was all sorts of balls and knishes (dough rolled and shifted various layers of clotted cream, curds and cheese). Often, the Cossacks were prepared and divertirci (kind of sticks), nuts, small pieces of unleavened dough, boiled in oil.
Enjoy your evening!
