{"product_id":"from-ruths-kitchen-with-love-ruth-glasberg-gold-9781450252386","title":"From Ruth's Kitchen with Love: Delicious Bukovinian \u0026 Other Ethnic Dishes","description":"\"As a multi-faceted author, gracious hostess and cook, Ruth has long been admired by her many friends who have been invited to her dinners. One cannot forget her multi-ethnic specialties, among them Romanian eggplant salad, Colombian Ajiaco potato soup, Bukovinian Schmettentorte (sour cream cake), to name just a small sampling of her culinary repertoire. French gastronome Jean Brillat-Savarin once remarked that 'the discovery of a new dish does more for the happiness of the new race than the discovery of a star.' George Bernard Shaw also believed that there was no love more sincere than the love of food. A sampling of the recipes from this book readily confirms both opinions.\" --Vladimir F. Wertsman, author of What's Cooking in Multicultural America (Scarecrow Press, 1996) This is an unpretentious cookbook designed for epicurean tastes. It is also a tribute to the women of various ethnic backgrounds who left us the legacy of fine cuisine, which I hope to pass on to future generations. The majority of these recipes are from Bukovina, once Northern Romania, and other countries which were once part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Some of the Bukovinian dishes are almost legendary in their nostalgia. Many have never before been documented and, most probably, have never been featured on restaurant menus. I have wandered across four continents and have experienced life under monarchies, communism, and fascism, all of which I survived. These multiple acculturations were extremely difficult, but had also some positive effects: one of them being the acquisition of a myriad of recipes. I am pleased to share with you some of them in the hope that you will enjoy this adventure as much as I did. --Ruth Glasberg Gold\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ruth Glasberg Gold\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1450252389\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781450252386\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e iUniverse\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/28\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 328\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.97lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.69d","brand":"Ruth Glasberg Gold","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43986251088127,"sku":"9781450252386","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9b34295e-004b-4bfd-ba38-708943bcce58.jpg?v=1683282246","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/from-ruths-kitchen-with-love-ruth-glasberg-gold-9781450252386","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
