Synopsis
A good cookbook is a priceless addition for food connoisseurs. This one-of-a-kind cookbook consists of recipes rich in Russian culture and tales of old Russian folklore. Each page features a unique recipe, along with a folklore tale. The whole family can enjoy the taste with the tale. Beef Stroganoff and Chicken Kiev will take the reader back to the glamour and decadence of Czarist Russia. I chose the recipes that have been passed on from my grandmother to my mother, who continues to share them with me. Most of these recipes had never been written down on paper, but rather are cooked from memory. Each and every one brings back the aroma and unique taste from my days growing up in the former Soviet Union to today, when I still enjoy treating my family.

October 17, 2007: Decided to see what the hype is all about. Saw the profile on myspace and we run a site that is always in search for arcticles, books, products and especially the ones that apply to or produced by women. Needless to say that we are going to be doing a spread on this great little find called Tastes and Tales. What a wonderful book. Refreshing concept, interesting tales, amazing recipes and much more. For anyone who is interested should try. We highly recommend it and will be posting our layout on this piece of cookbook literature.

September 06, 2007: I have seen and tried many books. Not to say that they are not up to par, but how can someone write about something without prior cultural first hand experience. Not the case in this book. The author was born and raised in Russia. It shows, it communicates and gets the message across to you when you are following the instructions, reading the tales and enjoying a part of the world that so much different from ours. I like this book a lot and besides enjoying it myself, would like to point out that it makes a heck of a gift.
