EVA'S HUNGARIAN KITCHEN
"It is often said in Hungarian circles that you can assimilate to your adopted country's language, customs and way of life, but your stomach remains Hungarian. The reason, I think, is that food is the strongest reminder of childhhood, tradition and culture. The sights, smells, family and memories of the faraway homeland are reconjured over a bowl of steaming food, capturing a little of the faded rose-colored past. Because of this strong bond between culture, tradition and food, historical notes and anecdotes are interspersed throughout the book to give you a more intimate feeling for the country, the people and the customs."
