Download or read book Vegan Romania written by Mihaela Lica Butler and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-12-10 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 101 traditional Romanian vegan recipes (in Romanian "de post" - meaning "for fasting"), inspired by travels and childhood memories. I made this volume as affordable as possible. So don't expect pretty pictures inside. My concern were the recipes, which, in their vast majority, are not available in English anywhere else. Romania is little known for its vegan cuisine. In fact, Romanians enjoy meats more than anything else. Their traditional foods are usually rich in fats and spices. But in the countryside, people cannot always afford meat. They substitute animal fats with a wide variety of vegan ingredients. Vegan food is also enjoyed in all its diversity during several fasting seasons, especially during the 40 days of Lent. For many, Lent is an occasion for complaining about "what should I cook today." When it comes to cookbooks focused exclusively on traditional Romanian vegan recipes, the market lacks what's needed. Cookbooks today borrow a lot from the cuisines of the world, introducing dishes that were virtually unknown 20 or 30 years ago in my country. You also have to consider that many Romanians also fast during the week on Wednesdays and Fridays, and in the Advent season before Christmas. A Romanian Orthodox may fast up to 192 days out of the entire year, usually counting on the same simple foods, without caring too much about diversifying his or her diet. There are many interesting vegan foods to discover in Romania, but, for the purpose of an introduction into our traditional cuisine this collection only features 101, including some of our iconic and legendary specialties: mamaliga (polenta), iahnie (baked beans), plachie (ragout), sarmale (stuffed cabbage), stuffed peppers, and zacusca (vegetable spread).

Book excerpt: NEW Updated Edition Winner of the Art of Eating Prize 2020 Winner of the Guild of Food Writers' Best Food Book Award 2019 Winner of the Edward Stanford Travel Food and Drink Book Award 2019 Winner of the John Avery Award at the André Simon Food and Drink Book Awards for 2018 Shortlisted for the James Beard International Cookbook Award ‘The next best thing to actually travelling with Caroline Eden – a warm, erudite and greedy guide – is to read her. This is my kind of book.’ – Diana Henry ‘Eden’s blazing talent and unabashedly greedy curiosity will have you strapped in beside her’ - Christine Muhlke, The New York Times 'The food in Black Sea is wonderful, but it’s Eden’s prose that really elevates this book to the extraordinary... I can’t remember any cookbook that’s drawn me in quite like this.’ – Helen Rosner, Art of Eating judge This is the tale of a journey between three great cities – Odesa, Ukraine’s celebrated port city, through Istanbul, the fulcrum balancing Europe and Asia and on to tough, stoic, lyrical Trabzon. With a nose for a good recipe and an ear for an extraordinary story, Caroline Eden travels from Odesa to Bessarabia, Romania, Bulgaria and Turkey’s Black Sea region, exploring interconnecting culinary cultures. From the Jewish table of Odesa, to meeting the last fisherwoman of Bulgaria and charting the legacies of the White Russian émigrés in Istanbul, Caroline gives readers a unique insight into a part of the world that is both shaded by darkness and illuminated by light. In this updated edition of the book, Caroline reflects on the events of the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine and the subsequent impact of the war on the people of the wider region. How Odesa, defiant against shelling and blackouts, has gained UNESCO protection while in Istanbul, over lunch with a Bosphorus ship-spotter, she finds out about the role of the Black Sea in the war and how Russians are smuggling stolen grain from Ukraine. Meticulously researched and documenting unprecedented meetings with remarkable individuals, Black Sea is like no other piece of travel writing. Packed with rich photography and sumptuous food, this biography of a region, its people and its recipes truly breaks new ground.

Download or read book Contemporary Romanian Cinema written by Dominique Nasta and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2013-10-29 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last decade, audiences worldwide have become familiar with highly acclaimed films from the Romanian New Wave such as 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days (2007), The Death of Mr. Lazarescu (2005), and 12:08 East of Bucharest (2006). However, the hundred or so years of Romanian cinema leading to these accomplishments have been largely overlooked. This book is the first to provide in-depth analyses of essential works ranging from the silent period to contemporary productions. In addition to relevant information on historical and cultural factors influencing contemporary Romanian cinema, this volume covers the careers of daring filmmakers who approached various genres despite fifty years of Communist censorship. An important chapter is dedicated to Lucian Pintilie, whose seminal work, Reconstruction (1969), strongly inspired Romania's 21st-century innovative output. The book's second half closely examines both the 'minimalist' trend (Cristian Mungiu, Cristi Puiu, Corneliu Porumboiu, Radu Muntean) and the younger, but no less inspired, directors who have chosen to go beyond the 1989 revolution paradigm by dealing with the complexities of contemporary Romania.

Download or read book Burek written by Jernej Mlekuz and published by Central European University Press. This book was released on 2015-09-01 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ?As simple as burek? is a popular phrase used by many young people in Slovenia. In this book Jernej Mleku? maintains that the truth is just the opposite. The burek is a pie made of pastry dough filled with various fillings that is well-known in the Balkans, and also in Turkey and the Near East by other names. Whether on the plate or as a cultural artifact, it is in fact, not that simple. After a brief stroll through its innocent history, Mleku? focuses on the present state of the burek, after parasitical ideologies had attached themselves to it and poisoned its discourses. In Slovenia, the burek has become a loaded metaphor for the Balkans and immigrants from the republics of the former Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. Without the burek it would be equally difficult to consider the jargon of Slovenian youth, the imagined world of Slovenian chauvinism and the rhetorical arsenal of advertising agents when promoting healthy foods. In this analysis, Mleku? refers to the burek as the ?metaburek.? All at the same time it is greasy, Balkan, Slovene, not-Slovene, Yugoslavian, familiar, foreign, the greatest, the worst, disturbingly unhealthy, plebeian, junk food, and finally, a cherub (burek spelled backwards is kerub, the Slovene word for cherub). And this metaburek, the protagonist of this book, is never a completely pure, innocent, unconditioned burek. It is much more. ÿ

Download or read book The Romanian Cookbook written by Anisoara Stan and published by . This book was released on 2020-12-30 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why another cookbook, and one with recipes from such a little known country as Romania at that? I believe more people should know Romanian cookery, especially in these days of rising food costs. By the artful use of herbs and flavorings truly gourmet dishes may be prepared from the cheaper cuts of meats like beef, lamb and veal . . . from extras like tripe, heart and sweetbreads . . . and from leftovers. A cheap and most delicious dish is the chicken stew made out of wings, liver and gizzards. Even vegetable dishes can be made delectable this way. Very many novel ones are given here, like the eggplant and ghivetch, which will make the Lenten season more enjoyable ... for fast days, which in the Balkans come on Wednesdays and Fridays, these recipes will make a greater choice of dishes available. And the great variety of vegetable dishes should be of particular interest for vegetarians. Very many of the recipes are for one meal dishes. They supply all the needed nourishment, cost little and are easy to prepare. I think the cooking of my native land is exquisite. It is impossible for one not to love the food that was first prepared by Mother and that always brings forth memories of one's youth. But, fortunately, the Americans love Romanian dishes, too. Those who have traveled in that far-off country have come back enthusiasts, and even those who had eaten at the Romanian Pavilion of the New York World's Fair. This need not surprise us. Bigness does not make for goodness, often it is the other way around. Romanian cooking is famous among gourmets around the world!

Download or read book The Ethnomusicologists Cookbook written by Sean Williams and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-31 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Named one of New York Times Top-20 Cookbooks of 2006. Have you ever wanted to host a full evening of Indian food, culture, and music? How about preparing a traditional Balinese banquet? Or take a trip to Cairo and enjoy an Egyptian feast? The Ethnomusicologists' Cookbook takes you around the world on a culinary journey that is also a cultural and social odyssey. Many cookbooks offer a snapshot of individual recipes from different parts of the world, but do nothing to tell the reader how different foods are presented together, or how to relate these foods to other cultural practices. For years, ethnomusicologists have visited the four corners of the earth to collect the music and culture of native peoples, from Africa to the Azores, from Zanzibar to New Zealand. Along the way, they've observed how music is an integral part of social interaction, particularly when it's time for a lavish banquet or celebration. Foodways and cultural expression are not separate; this book emphasizes this connection through offering over thirty-five complete meals, from appetizers to entrees to side dishes to desserts and drinks. A list of recommended CDs fills out the culinary experience, along with hints on how to present each dish and to organize the overall meal. The Ethnomusicologists' Cookbook combines scholarship with a unique and fun approach to the study of the world's foods, musics, and cultures. More than just a cookbook, it is an excellent companion for anyone embarking on a cultural-culinary journey.
