The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

This was the first time I tried making tueky breast and it turned out quite tasty. Family loved it. I sliced the potatoes instead of cubed them and cutting them thicker is the better idea as the baking time will make them squishier. I added olive oil to the vegetables just so they wouldn't burn. We ate it with avocado since it was around. Interesting. Very good.
