Summary: from a Hungarian mom
Review: First of all, Hungarian food and kosher just won't match!!! What a joke! Then, I have no idea where these recipes came from... not from a Hungarian's kitchen, for sure.
Instead of this, I'd recommend "Magdi's Quick and Easy Hungarian and Gourmet Recipes" for great tasting real Hungarian food, with detailed step-by-step pictures and explanations.

Summary: Apostrophy error
Review: Haven't read the book but definitely won't read it when it already has a very annoying error on the cover page. The 's in the english grammar represents "his" and not "is". Therefore the title should either read "That Hungarian is in my Kitchen" or "That Hungarian's Kitchen"

Summary: The Joy of Hungarian Kosher Cooking
Review: I grew up with Hungarian kosher cooking. My family comes from Kisvarda and Szeredne and Tokaj, and it's an insult to us, and to the martyrs from those places, to say that their cooking was a joke. There's nothing like the smell of a hot goulash cooking on a cold winter day to warm a person, and to lift his/her spirits. I enjoy and continue to enjoy Linda Radke's recipes. I just wish she had included more, such as fluden and g'ribener peas.

Summary: Aussie Grammar Critic
Review: It appears that Adrien Duckworth should keep his/her day job, as a future in proofreading doesn't seem to be in the cards. For beginners, "Apostrophy" is misspelled. Further, to suggest that 's in English (that's with an uppercase "E" there, Adrien)grammar represents "his" and not "is" is quite humorous, if you think about it. Now, I realize that water is reported to swirl backwards going down the drain "Down Under," but I don't think the rules of grammar are similarly reversed in Australia. And that HIS the truth...lol!

Summary: For God's Sake, Don't Buy This Cookbook!
Review: When I first thumbed through this cookbook, my immediate thought was that some dreadful mistake had been made, and that I'd been sent the wrong cookbook. After all, the recipes (largely unfamiliar to Hungarians, but that's another story) were generally followed by only one paragraph of text. In fact, what I've written up to this point was about all the information the author provided the reader in making each dish. Well... ghastly, awful, a joke... all three of these terms would fairly and accurately descibe this so-called cookbook. But then it dawned on me, surely this is one of those vanity press jobs. And taken in that light, I think Amazon really ought to point out that fact to would-be buyers ahead of time. So please don't get fooled like I was. Repacking it and returning it to Amazon was certainly no pleasure.
