And so, they eat well. How well can be seen at once by looking through the mouth~watering recipes Polish~born Rysia has assembled here. As in France, a dish is not a dish without a sauce, so an entire chapter is devoted to delectable sauces: Bechamel for fish, Dill Sauce for potato cutlets, Sour Cream Sauce for vegetables, Bordelaise Sauce for cold Meats ~ and many more. A perfect recipe for buffets is the hunters' special, 'Bigos'. The longer it cooks, the better it tastes. And what could be better on a hot summer day than 'Chlodnik', a chilled soup made with shrimp, sour cream, and raw vegetables? Soups, as a matter of fact, both hot and cold, are the mainstay of Polish cooking, and a soup must have a garnish: hence, the chapter on Additions to Soups: croutons, buckwheat groats, and poached eggs. There are delightful recipes for numerous dairy dishes, as well as easy~to~prepare appetizers to serve with cocktails. The book even contains a chapter on how to make liqueurs, Caraway Seed Vodka for example, as well as hot wine and beer drinks. In addition to all this richness there is a selection of the most famous recipes from other countries: Denmark, France, Hungary, Greece, Armenia, China, Japan, Italy, Spain, England and America. The internationals give you a chance to try your hand at such delicacies as Jugged Hare, Paella a la Valenciana, Sukiyaki, and Spare Ribs Chinese style. Here is the perfect, unusual and practical cookery book.…
