TAVA: EASTERN EUROPEAN BAKING AND DESSERTS (HB)

This meticulously researched baking book celebrates the culinary heritage of the diverse and overlapping cultures in today’s Romania. Inside you will find Armenian pakhlava, Saxon plum pies, Swabian poppyseed crescents, Jewish fritters, and Hungarian lango?i alongside placinte pies, alivenci corn cake, strudels and fruit dumplings. Rice or pearl barley puddings, doughnuts and gingerbread biscuits come with their own story, while chocolate mousses, meringues in custard sauce and coffee ice cream introduce you to the luxury of Eastern European pastry shops.
