Nostalgilised toidud - Lia Virkus

For me, the 1970s and 1980s are a time of warm memories. I had a beautiful childhood, and naturally, my recollections are just as bright. The dishes from that era—*kasukas* (layered herring salad), *sült* (meat jelly), deviled eggs, ham rolls, pâté, meatloaf, *ühepajatoit* (one-pot vegetable and meat stew)—are foods that everyone loves. The desserts are just as tempting: *lumepallisupp* (floating island/snowball soup), peach jelly, *saiavorm* (bread pudding), doughnuts, Napoleon cake, *kräsupea* (a sour cream cake), and many other treats. In total, over 80 recipes full of nostalgia! Now that the book is finished, I must say that creating it was a delightful journey back to the land of my childhood. Every dish and baked good tasted so familiar—and so delicious! We are all familiar with these foods, but do we still prepare them, now that the winds of change keep bringing us new flavors? In truth, these simple, home-style flavors will always be with us; let this cookbook serve as a gentle reminder to restore these good old-fashioned dishes to a place of honor in our homes. Find inspiration within these pages! Dig out your nostalgic tableware and enjoy these delicious dishes with your friends and family. – Lia Virkus
