Gamardzhoba, Genatsvale! The twists of fate of my family you can study the geography and history of the country. My ancestors, and it is only those, about whom I can say with certainty, lived in the Kuban, the Northern Caucasus, in the foothills of the Northwest Caucasus. I was born and grew up in Tatarstan, spending every summer visiting my grandmother in the Krasnodar region. It is therefore not surprising that the cuisine of these regions I dearly love. And today I want to show how I prepare chakhokhbili – and that my recipe is a mixture of recipes, at least, three different residents of the North Caucasus region – my mother's mother my father and one of Tuapse Georgian chakhokhbili prepared so acute that molten lead compared to him seemed cool water.
