Austrian Cuisine: Treasured Recipes from the Austria Club of Washington
Regional variety
The Austrian kitchen draws broadly from a variety of sources, some traditionally Alpine and regional, and others from its neighbors. Austria sits at the crossroads of Europe and often is called its heart.These dishes reflect those influences. Gathering the most popular - and many hard-to-find - recipes, this softcover cookbook offers nearly 300 tempting delicacies for American culinary explorers. The recipes (provided by club members and their families) all feature well-tested examples of Austrian home cooking, as well as many from the fabled Viennese cuisine. Often they are cherished family recipes passed on through the generations. You'll find them all - savory (and sweet) dumplings, schnitzels, and delectable desserts that the cuisine is famous for. The text relies on a rigorous editing approach, properly translated terms, and on placing ingredients and instructions in proper sequence in separate columns. Measurements by volume prevail, and all are in US units. Llisted ingredients are commonly available in the American marketplace. Conversion tables and other useful information are found in the Appendix, along with a bilingual index. The book's ten chapters cover not only recipes, but most pages are enlivened with German proverbs and historical explanations, plus helpful tips and photos of our club's activities. Bring the flavors of the homeland into your home!
