Traditional Russian can food

Olga Barbina from Gastronomy Marusya

We would like to offer you traditional Russian can food.

The European sprat is the one commonly found in the Baltic. It’s a forage fish, very oily, and beloved of gannets. Sprats are sprats – they are not baby sardines, anchovies, or baby herrings – although they are not dissimilar in size and all of these often get confused.

In addition to gannets, sprats are also beloved of Estonians, and their neighbours on all sides, in particular the Latvians and the Russians.

The Russians like to eat them on open sandwiches. Traditionally we use the local black rye bread, butter, the sprats, a snipped spring onion or two and some sliced hard boiled egg which adds texture.

We have a range of different kind of sprats.

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?

What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
