Culinaria Russia

This book is fantastic journey through the kitchen pots of the most distinctive part of the Russia. It is particularly interesting because it shows redeemed cultures and culinary traditions right after "perestroika" . It was fascinating to see that nothing vanished in the world even under the heavy soviet boots, but in the contrary was just waiting the right moment to spring back to life. Very profound observations of Republic's life , it's geographic and a bit history, deliciously described feast and recipes create just a right image of these places. Very inviting and educative and also tempting to go there and savor the abundance of every thing what they have been so generously blessed by nature. This book equally exiting for professional chefs and just a people who likes to travel, read about places , markets , cuisine and lick their fingers after each page, as it was a real feast they just taste.

The Culinaria Series has another winner

Short and sweet - this book follows the Culinaria cut an paste formula for success. Regional cuisines are explored and then the more interesting ones are elaborated on and followed up with recipes. The recipe measures are in American units such as ounces although metric units are also listed. The photography is stunning as in all the Culinaria books in the series and the authors have chosen interesting topics, areas and cusines to explore. There is not as much an emphasis on cheeses as in the other books in the series. Wines and spirits are well covered.

Authentic Russian Recipes

This book is wonderful! My Russian grandmother could not get enough of it! Not only does it have exceptional recipes, but it also has wonderful stories to go along with many of the recipes. The book also has beautiful pictures not only of the food, but of the people and the history, too. A great purchase whether you are Russian or not!

Very great book!!!

Russian is my main heritage, and my father came from Russia to this country years ago, I found this book very educational, and informative. Besides all the old time recipes that I grew up on, the cultural information just blew me away. What a great book!

A Wonderful Journey with Food in Mind

This large format book filled with great photographs will bring you to five countries - Russia, Ukraine, Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan (but also to some places in between). The author is taking a journey through Russia and its neigboring lands and talks about cultural traditions when it comes to dining, favorite foods and recipes. But this is not a cookbook in its traditional form. Although you will find many recipes throughout its pages, the book tells just as much about the local traditions, cooking "preferences", favorite foods, "likes & dislikes". In any case, it's a great read for anyone who craves to learn more about that colorful part of the world. The author of the book is German, but the photographer is Russian, and this is a plus because he captures the beauty of the countries and people like no other. The pictures with meals look delicious, too! You will find a variety of Ukrainian appetizers on the book's pages, some traditional Russian recipes (like "pelmeni") and so, so much more! More than any other book I have read about Russian food and cooking, this one really touched my heart...
