Home Cooking from Russia

Offers 50 recipes that include all courses from appetizers to desserts. This cookbook contains some of the ex-Soviet Union people's heritage - the recipes that have been traditional and favorite for ages and are up-to-date in families that have been living in the countries of Russia, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Tadzhikistan, Belorussia, and others.
