Old Slavic folklore celebrates the Sun’s return in late winter, symbolised by the round blini. The Russian Orthodox Church incorporated the tradition of eating blini into ‘Butter Week’, or Maslenitsa. Russians make as many buttery blini as they can eat all week long, as part of a Russian Carnival celebration before fasting for Lent.
