Summary |
Russian cookbooks tend to focus on the food that was imported from France in the nineteenth century or the impoverished food of the Soviet era. Goldstein has compiled traditional yet surprisingly modern recipes from the far northern corners of Russia. They feature ingredients and dishes that young Russians are rediscovering as part of their heritage. Some feature foods that are organic and honest, or old dishes that feel new again in their elegant minimalism. The anecdotes bring to life a rarely seen portrait of Russia, its people, and its palate, with essays on the little-known culinary history of this wild part of the world. -- adapted from publisher info |
