Book Description
This book is unique. The goal of this book has been to create healthier, lighter and updated versions based on traditional Hungarian recipes, as well as create new recipes that incorporate current trends in Hungarian cuisine. Eleven Chapters ranging from Hors d'Oeuvres to Desserts with a total of 177 recipes including annotations. Each Chapter begins with an introduction. Some of the recipes retain traditional ingredients such as paprika, sour cream, garlic, and onion, as staples in the Hungarian diet. The origin of Hungarian paprika is also included. Some recipes are based on traditional ingredients, but updated to healthier modern versions. New recipes are created to follow the lighter side of Hungarian cuisine. With such a diverse collection of recipes, there is something to please the culinary beginner or the experienced cook who enjoys the challenge of tackling an eye-appealing simple or complex recipe. Some recipes are my mother's, and some are my friend's tried and true dishes, but applied with my own fresh look. Hungarian cuisine has gotten a serious update. Today Hungarian food is cosmopolitan. Even the classic Hungarian dishes are prepared with a modern flare. The Chapters are as follow: Hors D'Oeuvres, Soups, Main Dishes, Meats, Poultry, Seafood, Pasta, Potato, Rice, Vegetables, Salads, Desserts and Condiments

Book Description
Winner of the 2019 National Jewish Book Award in the category of Food Writing & Cookbooks. The author refuses to accept that the world of pre-Shoah Hungarian Jewry and its cuisine should disappear almost without a trace and feels compelled to reconstruct its culinary culture. His book―with a preface by Barbara Kirshenblatt-Gimblett―presents eating habits not as isolated acts, divorced from their social and religious contexts, but as an organic part of a way of life. According to Kirshenblatt-Gimblett: “While cookbooks abound, there is no other study that can compare with this book. It is simply the most comprehensive account of a Jewish food culture to date.” Indeed, no comparable study exists about the Jewish cuisine of any country, or―for that matter―about Hungarian cuisine. It describes the extraordinary diversity that characterized the world of Hungarian Jews, in which what could or could not be eaten was determined not only by absolute rules, but also by dietary traditions of particular religious movements or particular communities. Ten chapters cover the culinary culture and eating habits of Hungarian Jewry up to the 1940s, ranging from kashrut (the system of keeping the kitchen kosher) through the history of cookbooks, the food traditions of weekdays and holidays, the diversity of households, and descriptions of food and hospitality industries to the history of some typical dishes. Although this book is primarily a cultural history and not a cookbook, it includes 83 recipes, as well as nearly 200 fascinating pictures of daily life and documents.

Book Description
This definitive guide to the cuisine of Hungary also contains an engrossing history of the Hungarian kitchen, dating back to its mysterious origins among the Mongol tribes, followed by an amusing ten-century survey of gastronomy & related matters in all the regions of Hungary today. Fascinating to read, Mr. Lang's account of the wine harvest & his discussion of that most Hungarian of all condiments, paprika, are alone worth the price of the book. Lavishly illustrated by distinguished Hungarian artists, past & present, this is an entertaining, instructive, definitive book."What cookbooks should be & almost never are." Orig. pub. in '71; this with new intro.
