Books by Zuza Zak
“I like this book because it helps you master the art of making your own pierogi at home, which is a great thing if you’ve fallen in love with it. She has these very detailed picture-essays, which are super helpful and practical. She also talks about how she had to defend Polish cuisine, how delicious and varied it is. In the north, it’s all about fish, and in the mountains it’s more about cheese and pasta. It’s just a cheerful, lovely book. I like to eat in Poland more than anywhere else in the world at the moment. Polish cuisine is so under-appreciated, and so good.” Read more...
