Kalduny
Kalduny or kolduny (, , ) are dumplings stuffed with meat, mushrooms or other ingredients, made in Belarusian, Lithuanian, and Polish cuisines, akin to the Polish pierogi, Russian pelmeni and the Ukrainian varenyky. In Slavic languages the word means “ magicians” or “ sorcerers”, but it is unclear how the word became associated with the dish. Description Kalduny, dumplings of unleavened dough filled with meat, mushrooms, or other stuffings, are related to similar dishes in the West and in the East alike, from Italian ravioli, Hungarian derelye, and Ashkenazi Jewish pirogen to Russian pelmeni and Central Asian manti or chuchvara. Kalduny made with a stuffing of smoked ham and mushrooms (''Kalduny Count Tyshkevich'', named after a Belarusian noble family from Lahojsk near Minsk) were long considered Belarus's “visiting card”, although decades of Soviet rule almost erased their trace from public memory and now they are only served in a few local r ...

Magician (paranormal)
Magic, sometimes spelled magick, is the application of beliefs, rituals or actions employed in the belief that they can manipulate natural or supernatural beings and forces. It is a category into which have been placed various beliefs and practices sometimes considered separate from both religion and science. Connotations have varied from positive to negative at times throughout history. Within Western culture, magic has been linked to ideas of the Other, foreignness, and primitivism; indicating that it is "a powerful marker of cultural difference" and likewise, a non-modern phenomenon. During the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, Western intellectuals perceived the practice of magic to be a sign of a primitive mentality and also commonly attributed it to marginalised groups of people. Aleister Crowley (1875–1947), a British occultist, defined " magick" as "the Science and Art of causing Change to occur in conformity with Will", adding a 'k' to distinguish ce ...

Ravioli
Ravioli (; : ''raviolo'', ) are a type of stuffed pasta comprising a filling enveloped in thin pasta dough. Usually served in broth or with a sauce, they originated as a traditional food in Italian cuisine. Ravioli are commonly square, though other forms are also used, including circular and semi-circular ('' mezzelune''). Ravioli appear in the 14th-century cookbook ''The Forme of Cury'' under the name of ''rauioles''. Etymology English and French borrowed the word ''ravioli'' from Italian in the 14th century. The ultimate origin of the word is uncertain. It is sometimes connected to the northern Italian word ''rava'', 'turnip', supposing that the filling was made of turnips, but the earliest recipes, even Lenten ones, do not include turnips. Another theory connects it to a kind of cheese (related to modern Italian '' robiola''), but that also appears unlikely. History Ravioli are mentioned in the personal letters of Francesco Datini, a merchant of Prato in the 14th century.D ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
