So, can anyone tell me about the kinds of Sausages that you can find in Eastern Europe / Russia? I've seen so many kinds at the stores and I have no idea which ones to try first.

Fun fact: the Russian word for sausage translates to meat potato.

Way too many to count. Are you looking for street fast food or home cooking? For the latter you might wanna start with a smoked Polish kielbasa (wedzona, dark and shriveled) and make a hearty potato veggie soup.

According to a quick search, the ideal point of entry into the world of Russian delights would be a 'Moskovskaya' Check around for a sausage that's really firm, dark and shriveled.

eh i cant mwrite this important email while im having coffee so may as well help my coffee get colder in broader categories, common things will be:
but that's all stuff we call sausages, i.e. сосики/колбаски. there also are "big sausages" i.e. колбаса that you use to make sandwiches. most of it is more or less the same, general split being into salami/boiled. boiled will have a couple generic brand varieties with no meaningful difference between them, i.e. boiled (варёная), doctors' (докторская), and milk's (молочная). just throw a slice on sandwich and call it a day. you can fry them if you want student style %something% as per kilogram they are usually cheaper than "small sausages". salami is salami, that should be common wherever you came from too. boiled varieties generally will be either garlic inside, or cheese, or fat (yea, literal specks of lard), or a combination of any of thereof. of course, minimal spicing variations etc, but that won't be noticeable unless something is outright labelled "spicy" (in general or, say, peppery), or unless youve had similar bland food for most of your life. smoked sausages, which is what we here call salami (and what i referred to above) and what actually is edible compared to gross actually italian shite ive unfortunately have had a couple of times, these will generally fall into a couple broad categories - cold smoked, hot smoked, and dry smoked. each of the three will have bunch of varities in themselves. cold smoked can sometimes can gross rough texture. hot smoked is what the brown sausages from above are, as well as various krakow style sausages, normal "salami", and gross boiled salami poo poo with specks of cheese inside and whatnot. dry smoked is p rare, big forest game like elk or deer are sometimes prepared this way - never bad, but sometimes it can incorporate worst of the two methods before, being both 'boily' and showing lack of fine texture.

I garden, but I've never planted potatoes. They're, like $3 for 20 some pounds here in Ohio, so the cost/benefit of planting my own is pretty much nil.

kalstrams posted:they are not expensive in latvia either, but seeds always were cheaper and people were, and still are, largely frugal People who like new potatoes often grow their own because new potatoes are often more expensive. It's dead easy to grow potatoes on a balcony or any tiny plot in a bag of soil.
