Book Description

The reader finds not only recipes for soups, salads, meat and sweets, but extensive descriptions on how to prepare them properly, in a way that to retains vitamins. In the author's own words, "I understand now that American cooking is very good, but American women start to lose old recipes…"

This book also reminds readers that Russian culture has a broad base to draw its riches from-"When we were the Soviet Union, we had 15 republics and our cooking culture combines a lot of different meals from different nations."

"I couldn’t cook. I could fry sunny side and hard-boiled eggs, but I had mom’s old Russian cooking book and a lot of recipes from mom’s book. They are so simple but delicious…It helps to keep your family together in the evening or weekend and, as the Russian saying goes, "the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach!"

This book is about Russian culture, traditions, cooking techniques, a healthy diet, and the author’s fascinating life story - from her birth to her marriage to an American man whom she met on internet and her new life in America.
