Book Summary Information

Book Reviews of Old Polish Traditions in the Kitchen and at the Table (Hippocrene International Cookbook Series)

Book Review: A bit of everything, but some things missing
Summary: 2 Stars

For the cooking, very good for those that acutally do eat lots of fat. If you are trying to cut down on fats in your diet, this book is not for you. At times reciepes them selves were confusing, and not much variation of things that you can add with a dish (one example pierogi). A great deal of dishes from the Easter and Christmass sections that are missing, and that are also traditions.
Also not a book for those who do not eat pork or drink alcohol, althou there are substitues for both, if you dont know of them then the book is useless.
Knowing some of the cooking from experience, this is pretty good overview of BASICS of Polish traditions and cooking.
