Any Russians on MFP?

I am having the darnedest time translating some of traditional Russian dishes but at the same time i am beginning to value mom's zelenyi borsch ...that's Sorrel Soup in English :) would love to add some Russian friends!

    I'm not Russian, but I spent a year in central Siberia (Barnaul) when I was 18, and LOVED it!

    Hello,

    I use http://www.calorizator.ru/analyzer/recipe
    That's a great site! It takes free text recipe and converts it into a grid with nutrition facts.
    For example: "750 г шампиньонов, 2 луковицы, 3 помидора, 2 сладких зеленых перца, 4 ложки сливок, 1 ч.л. перца красного молотого, 1 ч.л. картофельного крахмала, сок 1 лимона, 50 г сливочного масла, соль, перец черный молотый."
