My book arrived yesterday, and I'm looking forward to getting to know it better. Just thumbing through it, I think I'm in love with it already:
I peeked at a few recipes, and they are written fairly well, with fairly easy instructions considering that many of them are "handed down." Some are German, some are Russian, and some are an American mix of those, representing all three origins. Many have been "Americanized" a bit, and some have been modernized, as well. All in all, I see a good, wide sampling. One thing that struck me that there are often two, three or even 4 version of the same recipe; I like this, because it allows the reader to compare and then either use the recipe that looks "best" or to come up with an "amalgam" of different recipes to average the differences. If anyone has an interest in the Foodways of the Germans from Russia, it looks like this should definitely be on the shelf. ------------- If you are a visitor and like what you see, please http://foodsoftheworld.activeboards.net/registration_rules.asp?FID=0" rel="nofollow - click here and join the discussions in our community! |
