This cookbook is a true tribute to Polish cooking, presenting the culinary history of Poland, Polish cooking-related legends and a variety of tasty recipes. There are literally dozens of recipes celebrating the diversity of cabbage, kasha and mushrooms in Polish cooking. The cookbook also has recipes organized around the holidays, with chapters entitled "Christmas" and "Easter". Each is filled with delectable dishes ranging from appetizers to main courses to desserts.
Personal review:
Hubby and I had a party making pierogi..........every variety presented in this cookbook: potato, sauerkraut, cheese, meat, kasha, and even fruit! Also delicious was the Cabbage with Mushrooms and Nut Croquettes. Great for dessert is the Old Polish Royal Mazurek. In short, this cookbook is really helping me get in touch with my Polish roots!
I do have a few criticisms though. For one, I have found errors in some recipes. Secondly, ingredients required for a given dish are not clearly laid out before each recipe, making it inconvenient because one must read through the whole recipe when making a shopping list. Also, sometimes instructions are vague. I've made one recipe that instructed cooks to "bake in a hot oven until done". Thus, beginners might have a tough time with this cookbook.
Overall, I recommend this cookbook to seasoned cooks who are eager to learn about Polish cooking. Newcomers to the kitchen should probably use a different cookbook.
