Reviews (1st edition)
...one of the most comprehensive books on Russian Food. - Michael Bateman, Independent on Sunday
Recipes are presented clearly and methodically spiced by literary quotations - style is modest and pleasing. - Alan Davidson, Petit Propos Culinaires No.32
An attractive presentation of simple, basic Russian dishes. The book also contains an interesting chapter on Russian Breads. - Simple Cooking No.29 U.S.A, Supplement 'Mange Tout'

... a lovely book. Amazon review, 2012.

This 2nd edition has been updated to reflect the extensive political changes since the Soviet era, but the recipes remain unchanged.

RUSSIAN FOOD is delicious, wholesome and easily prepared from generally available ingredients.

Many recipes are suitable for vegetarians or could be easily adapted.

JEAN REDWOOD's cookery book contains over 340 recipes in easy-to-use presentation, measured in grams and ounces.

The book is enjoyable to read as well as to cook from. Russian literature provides much 'food for thought'. There is a complete 'food story' by Chekhov in the author's own translation.

The geographical and historical background to cookery in different areas of the Russian Federation and surrounding countries is fully explained in all its splendid diversity.

RUSSIAN FOOD is based on Jean Redwood's extensive first-hand knowledge of Russia and the Russian language.
