But I love to cook and love Middle Eastern food especially. I also do a lot of Eastern European cooking. Make borscht from scratch, that kind of thing. My great grandmother grew up on a potato farm in Belarus just outside of Minsk. I'm loving comparing and contrasting your recipes and seeing so many Polish and Belorussian ingredients and influences (tvarog, cabbage, noodles, buckwheat, potatoes for sure!), and then all the Middle Eastern and Asian influences with the cumin, cilantro (coriander), and rice. I have to do a lot of looking up words - you call buckwheat grechka - I call it kasha, but I'm having a blast. Thank you for all the beautiful recipes and detailed instructions.
