Kneading dough in a cooking class, 1937

Heads together over a large earthenware bowl, the women in kerchiefs and patterned aprons work a dough with their fingers; a smiling older woman, apparently the teacher, looks up into the camera, and hands place small dumplings in rows on a plate. The courses taught thrift as a national duty: under the Four-Year Plan of 1936 the housewife was told to cook with home-grown potatoes, grain and fish and to waste nothing.
