The paper is devoted to an algebraic interpretation of Kuznetsov's theorem which establishes the assertoric equipollence of intuitionistic and proof-intuitionistic propositional calculi. Given a Heyting algebra, we define an enrichable Heyting algebra, in which the former algebra is embedded. Moreover, we show that both algebras generate one and the same variety of Heyting algebras. This algebraic result is equivalent to the Kuznetsov theorem. The proposed construction of the enrichable `counterpart' of a given Heyting algebra allows one to observe that some properties of the original algebra are preserved by this embedding in the counterpart algebra.
