The Russian Heritage Cookbook A Culinary Tradition In Over 400 Recipes

Alongside the splendors of tsarist Russia -- its art, architecture, and literature -- sits its cuisine, a marvelous, little-known part of Russian heritage. Based on favorite family recipes and passed down through generations, collected by the author from the private collections of the old Russian emigre community of New York City, The Russian Heritage Cookbook represents the restoration of an entire culinary heritage which previously existed only in the memories of the cooks themselves, or in the form of yellowing scraps of paper. Now revised with a great many new recipes, The Russian Heritage Cookbook brings together recipes for these classic dishes along with hundreds of recipes for the sumptuous meals that have delighted generations. - Jacket flap.
