Explore Eastern European food culture and identity, through over 80 delicious, entirely achievable recipes.
Food is grounding; it connects us to our past, moves with people across borders, and is ever evolving. Anastasia Zolotarev draws on her Ukrainian and Belarusian heritage and celebrates the food and flavours of Eastern Europe. Through the pages, she finds the balance between preserving tradition and sharing the evolution of her family’s recipes.
Sour Cherries & Sunflowers celebrates culture and connection, with recipes to preserve and feed the soul. For slow mornings at home, there are Blueberry and Buckwheat Pancakes, whilst Pyrizhky and Varenyky dumpling recipes are shared with tales of family gatherings around the table. You’ll find open rye sandwiches and Blini for celebrations and special gatherings, everyday recipes like babka and borsch, as well as salads, preserves, and even desserts such as Honey, Walnut and Soured Cream Cakeand Plum Rogaliki cookies.
