5.0 out of 5 stars Ach du Lieber!, June 27, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Bavarian Cooking (Hardcover)

I bought several copies of this book for relatives while I was over there. But you don't have to go all the way to Bayern! Just to the Amazon! Among this fine book's extra features are: concise but splendid explanations of some key differences between Old Bavarians, Schwabians, and Franconians, and their cooking traditions; and a nice colorful foldout map showing their respective regions; and a Bavarian calendar; and some helpful words about beer, wine, Radlermass, Russenmass, Schorle, Gschwemm, Leberkase, the different kinds of Wurst, and more! Now, if only Amazon had a way of shipping fresh Bavarian beer with this book!

This book not only has great recipes but also is full of the history of Bavarian cooking and culture. I would reccommend this book to anyone interested in preparing dishes rich in ingredients and Bavarian style.
