👉 Barding is a type of cooking technique used in traditional Russian cuisine, where meat (such as pork or beef) is cooked in a mixture of butter and flour called "baking powder" to create a crust-like layer. The dough is then shaped into a dish shape and baked until the crust is golden brown and crispy. Barding can be found in many Russian dishes such as Stroganoff, Stroganova's (a popular dish in Ukraine), and other traditional Russian dishes.
