Dumplings are the head of everything

Congratulations – today, February 18th, is World Pelmeni Day! The holiday's birthplace is considered to be Udmurtia, where a large-scale festival has been held at the beginning of winter since 2015. 

If you consider pelmeni as a dish made of meat and dough, there are dozens of variations across Russia's regions. Today, NeMoskva tells you where and what kind of pelmeni are made, as well as how and what to eat them with.
