From the Recipe Collection of
Nurit Friedman
This site is a tribute
to all the women in my family.
I learned the love of food and cooking from my mother and aunts. All excellent
cooks in the tradition of the Jewish Hungarian/Rumanian kitchen.
It is a collection of recipes that
were tried, enjoyed and handed down through four generations, starting
with my grandmother and her contemporaries as early as 1900.
For the most part, these recipes were transferred from mother to daughter,
between sisters and cousins, by word of mouth or hand written personal
recipe notes.
This sound base was enriched with newer recipes I have adopted from my
friends, influences of modern cooking ideas and techniques and from years
of interest in new recipes and ideas from food magazines, cookbooks, TV
food programs and eating in restaurants.
