Slavic cuisine is experiencing a moment of prominence, with Georgian food being named the cuisine of the year by a leading hospitality consulting firm in 2019. The interest in Eastern European and Caucasian cuisines has only continued to rise, and yet for many American home cooks, the dishes and flavors of the former Soviet Republics may seem as far off as Siberia.

Meaning "cheers!" in Ukrainian, Budmo! is the first cookbook to celebrate classic Slavic recipes with a modern, creative twist. Presented by Ukrainian-born, California-based chef, blogger, and culinary instructor Anna Voloshyna, bright flavors and vibrant ingredients sing from each plate. A gorgeous magenta pkhali comes alive with roasted beets and a tangy pomegranate molasses. Borscht is reinvented with green sorrels and semi-soft eggs. And Voloshyna even shares a personal recipe for her Ukrainian grandmother's duck roasted to a delicious crispy-brown perfection.

These are the dishes that are perfect for gathering your favorite people with, and each one is bound to uncover the mouthwatering flavors and traditions of this endlessly fascinating part of the world. Whether you're a seasoned chef or a novice cook, Budmo! is a must-have cookbook for anyone who wants to explore the rich and diverse culinary heritage of the Slavic region.
