In this refreshing approach to Polish cuisine, food writer and blogger
Ren Behan takes us on a journey to discover the new tastes of her
beloved culinary heritage. The food of Eastern Europe, long
misunderstood in the West, is changing - the focus is swinging away from
heavy dumplings and stews towards lighter, healthier, fresh and seasonal
recipes, served in contemporary ways. In this beautiful collection of
recipes, Ren brings us the very best of the Polish kitchen, inspired
both by the food of her childhood and by the new wave of flavors to be
found in the trendy restaurants, cafes and farmers markets of modern
Poland. Alternative grains, such as rye, spelt, buckwheat and millet
make an appearance in risottos, as do fresh fruit preserves and pickles,
infused honeys, seasonal and raw salads, light broths, delicious cakes
and flavored liqueurs. No book on Polish food would be complete without
pierogi, the classic dumplings, and of course they are here, with other
substantial dishes such as meatballs, goulash and cutlets, as you might
expect, but you will also see them in a new lightfilled with
strawberries and served with honey and pistachios. Pink sauerkraut
adorns vegan pastry rolls, ribs are slowly-braised with honey and vodka,
a fresh cucumber salad with sour cream and dill sets off a homely dish
of meatballs, and Polish charcuterie sits atop the darkest rye bread. An
evocative and inspiring collection of recipes, which truly celebrates
all the good things the food of Poland has to offer, and which will
leave your mouth watering.
