Belarussian Cookbook

This cookbook is a fascinating exploration of Belarusian history and food, as well as of the prominent Jewish influence on the cuisine. Alexander Bely, a historian and native of Belarus, carefully reconstructs traditional recipes, both of the peasants and aristocracy, with the aim of pleasing palates as well as restoring national culinary traditions, which have been largely eclipsed during the tumultous last century.Bely, Alexander is the author of 'Belarussian Cookbook', published 2008 under ISBN 9780781812092 and ISBN 0781812097.
