Product Description
For novices and gourmets, this unique cookbook offers a tempting variety of Central European dishes from the shores of the Danube River, bringing Old World flavour to today's dishes. Including such favourites as: Black Forest Pork Roast; Housekove Knedliky (Bread Dumplings); Hungarian Goulash; Spinach Zagora Style (from Bulgaria); and Mititei (Romanian Sausages) this cookbook spans the range of home cooking. Along with a special chapter, Christmas Along the Danube, which covers holiday specialities of all the countries, the book also includes black and white photographs of menus, shots of regional interest, and maps and illustrations throughout. A new appendix includes information about classic wines from central European countries like Germany, Austria and Hungary.

3 out of 5 stars Not very useful   February 22, 2007
T. Todorovac (USA)
10 out of 11 found this review helpful

This book fell apart as soon as I opened it. The glue wasn't strong enough to keep the pages together, and they fell right out of the book. And that was just a foretaste of the fact that the recipes were not going to be very useful at all. The problem is that it is very poorly organized...there is a heavy concentration on the countries involved instead of the dishes I was interested in trying. The author couldn't decide whether it was a cookbook or a historic and geographic tour guide. She needed to make up her mind, but didn't.

An excellent book that takes you along the Danube, stopping to
eat at every country and sample a little of their cuisine. The recipes are a great collection of comfort food that all are
sure to enjoy.



4 out of 5 stars Good ethnic cooking from the old country and then some!   October 25, 2007
Ginglaw
I liked this book very much because of the diversity of countries where the Danube flows. How often I'll use it I'm not sure, but its nice to have the resources of the different cuisines. I hope they are as authentic as they seem to be. :)
