The Russian Heritage Cookbook: A Culinary Tradition in Over 400 Recipes (Lynn Visson)

Among the splendors of tsarist Russia, from art and architecture to literature and music, resides its cuisine―an art in its own right that has delighted and nourished all levels of society for hundreds of years.

Based on favorite family recipes passed down through generations, collected by the author from the private collections of the old Russian émigré community of New York City, The Russian Heritage Cookbook represents the achievements of an entire culinary heritage―one which previously existed only in the memories of the cooks themselves, or written on yellowing scraps of paper.
