Free Downloads Flavors Of Hungary (101 Productions)
Flavors of Hungary is not only an outstanding collection of authentic recipes but also a bittersweet memoir of the author's homeland as seen through its unique cuisine. Though she and her family were imprisoned by occupying forces, her riches-to-rags tale of survival is deeply flavored with a gentle yearning for her native land and its rich culinary history. She warmly recounts her days in the family vineyards, the bounty of harvest, the festive winters in Budapest, and the first vegetables -- the primeurs -- of spring. The notes accompanying the recipes fondly recall Hungarian culinary traditions that add a special meaning to the dishes. Three generations of authentic recipes handwritten in a battered family cookbook make up this irresistible "old country" collection. Some traditional favorites included here are the native Hungarian stews, or goulashes, fragrant with paprika; the kaposzata, or stuffed cabbages; the sweet and savory noodles; the traditional potato pancakes; the warm, crusty brioches; and the delectably sweet strudels and tortes. Rich with flavor and style, yet surprisingly simple to prepare, these are only a few of the more than two-hundred stellar recipes found in this collection. For enthusiasts of ethnic cuisine or for those who simply enjoy hearty fare, Flavors of Hungary affords a nostalgic tour through a sophisticated old-world cuisine.

I have gone through several copies of this book both through constant use and giving copies to friends who express an interest in Hungarian cooking. As a Hungarian and a cook, I find this collection of recipes both authentic and easy to follow. If you are to have only one Hungarian cookbook on your shelf, this is the one.
I've used my copy since it was first published some 20 years ago. Its recipes are the closest thing to "Mom's". Every recipe i've tired has been easy to follow and the results true. T. Polgar

This is a book that I bought several years ago and subsequently I lost. I try to locate it in second hand books ever since. The recipes are particularly tasty and well written. I am not very good with praises, but the fact that it is the first time that I ever felt the need to share my views on a book, might tell you something.
I own several hangarian cookbooks, and I think that this one is the best. Not only is it authentic but it also contains easy to follow recipes. almost all the ingredients are available in Israel.
This book is written by someone who not only understand the tastes and flavors of Hungry, but a person who grew up there. Every single recipe that I've tried so far has brought back something from my youth. How amazing is that. If you've ever wanted to try Hungarian cooking, this book is it if you can find it.
