A good cookbook is a priceless addition for food connoisseurs. This one-of-a-kind cookbook consists of recipes rich in Russian culture and tales of old Russian folklore. Each page features a unique recipe, along with a folklore tale. The whole family can enjoy the taste with the tale. Beef Stroganoff and Chicken Kiev will take the reader back to the glamour and decadence of Czarist Russia. I chose the recipes that have been passed on from my grandmother to my mother, who continues to share them with me. Most of these recipes had never been written down on paper, but rather are cooked from memory. Each and every one brings back the aroma and unique taste from my days growing up in the former Soviet Union to today, when I still enjoy treating my family.

Very enjoyable,

This review is from: Tastes and Tales from Russia (Paperback)
You can tell when someone who does not know their topic is struggling to write...not the case here! It's obvious Alla Danishevsky is from the country she writes about and that she has been well trained by her mother and grandmother in the ways of the "old country." This book will add to any cooks enjoyment in learning the tastes of other countries as well as adding knowledge of the culture. Excellent job!

This is a great book to have! The recipies are short, simple and tasty! The tales are fun, specially for kids. This book also makes a nice gift for your friends.
The book introduced old Russian cooking to me and since then I gained 10 lbs. :)

Enjoyed trying out the recipes,
By Rachel (Chicago) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Tastes and Tales from Russia (Paperback)
This book contains the best of the Russian dishes, some of which I am familiar with and others which are new to me. I found that some international cookbooks are not easy to follow, when trying to prepare the dish. I have cooked a few of the dishes from this book and I had a fun, easy time of doing it. My family loved eating them!
