Baursaks (doughnuts)
Baursaki is a donut, a popular pastry in Tatarstan, Bashkiria, Buryatia and beyond. Most often, baursaks are prepared for large feasts and served as an alternative to bread. According to the wedding tradition of the Tatars, the parents of the groom ( among the Siberian Tatars - the bride) bring a dish with baursaks as a gift for the wedding. Or the bride herself prepares baursak for the future mother-in-law. And by how tasty the baursak turned out, the mother-in-law determines how good a housewife her future daughter-in-law will be.
