Raves and Reviews
"A timeless guide to both the traditions and the trends of Eastern and Central European cooking.Rowe...presents a worldly view of the region's truly robust flavors, ripe with custom and tradition...Rather than centering the chapters around specific courses, the author uses them to focus on topics that are particularly important to Eastern and Central European food...The great diversity of dishes, illustrated with lush, journalistic photography, is a brilliant lens with which readers can view this vibrant culinary culture. A fresh look at an exciting, often-overlooked cuisine."
"As Italian cookbooks crowd bookstores and Spanish tapas bars multiply, Western European dishes have become part of our daily repertoire. Meanwhile, the foods eaten just to the east- in Hungary or Ukraine, for example- haven't yet made our radar. Silvena Rowe may change all that. With that in mind, she's compiled a blend of modern twists and traditional regional dishes"Unlike many cookbooks that focus on the foods of far-flung regions, these recipes call for standard supermarket ingredients, instead using them in unusual ways. For exploratory cooks, it's a seductive and inspiring compilation."
"We want to cook everything in this stunning new book. 'The Eastern and Central European Kitchen' throws the window open on cuisines that have heretofore been hidden from us"flavor combinations that are so fresh and imaginative that they shake a few preconceived notions out of our heads. "Rowe writes with a clarity that can be achieved only when the cuisine is mastered. As is typical with books from Interlink Books, the chapter introductions bring the culture to the reader and are as riveting as the recipes."
