5.0 out of 5 stars Lovely Historical Piece, January 7, 2012

This review is from: Russian Cooking (Foods of the World Series) (Hardcover)
This book is a step back into the world of the late 1960's. The photography is wonderful and the description of Russian regional cuisine is enlightening. The writer/editors were prescient in titling the book Russian cuisine instead of Soviet cuisine since the Soviet Union is no more. But the regional dishes and recipes given are part of today's Russian cooking even though many of the countries mentioned (Ukraine, Georgia, Latvia, Estonia, Uzbekistan, etc.) are now independent nations. In short, we have a cuisine of a cultural region and not of a political state. An interesting historical development.

The recipes are good, very clearly written, and with excellent illustrative photography. For the most part the recipes are authentic (although one wonders how one can have a Ukrainian meat borsch without pork)and can be created by a resonably competent cook.

Book is worth the historical photography, if for no other reason.
