Publisher's Remarks:
From its rolling lowlands and meandering rivers to its lofty peaks and extensive lake region, Poland is a land where good food and warm hospitality is at the heart of everyday life. In this stunning new book, Ewa Michalik first explores the geography, festivals, culture, and turbulent history of this diverse country, and how these factors have had an impact on the national cuisine. There then follows a fabulous selection of more than 60 classic step-by-step recipes, with sections on soups and appetizers, fish, meat, poultry and game, side dishes, desserts, and a tempting array of cakes and bakes. Regional specialties - such as zurek, a sour rye soup from the sandy plains of central Poland, and the world-famous pierogi from the eastern belt - are included, as well as a selection of the nation's favorite dishes, including Hunter's Stew, Red Borsch, Poppy Seed Cake, and Dumplings with Plums. Lavishly illustrated with more than 300 specially commissioned photographs, this evocative and inspiring book captures the essence of Polish food and cooking and provides an invaluable resource for anyone who wants to learn more about this delightful cuisine.
