Sagudai made with muksun whitefish at the Chemodan restaurant

The Russian North is known for its unique cuisine. Due to its severe climate with short summers and longs winters it is incredibly important that courses there be heavy in calories and vitamin-rich. It is primarily for this reason that fish plays a central role in the diet of northern peoples. One of the fastest and simplest northern dishes to prepare is a whitefish sugudai (a course made from raw fish). Daria Glazun, the head chef of the restaurant Chemodan tells the story behind such a dish as well as the correct way to prepare this tasty northern specialty.
