Title: Excellent Information and Recipes
Review: I have twice checked out this book from the library, now I'm buying it! This is not just a book of recipes, the author puts every recipe in the context of regional and historical provenence--very important when you are dealing with German anything. There are recipes from all of the more commonly recognized regions (Bavaria, Prussia, Hesse,etc), as well as the historically less well known regions such as Pomerania, Silesia and Friesland. The recipes are doable and good (if you like Central European food, as I do). Plenty of herring and cabbage, yum! Whole chapters on dumplings and potatoes. This is a great book.
