Kapusta or Cabbage Cookbook
From the Steppes of Ukraine, through Europe during the Second World War, Ewhenia (Jennie) Choban crosses the Atlantic Ocean, making her home in Quebec, Canada in 1949.
From Ontario to travels in Quebec, Sweden and Norway, April Qureshi makes her home along Canada’s Pacific Coast.
While reminiscing about the good old days, mother shreds kapusta in Aurora, Ontario and daughter prepares oignon au gratin in Vancouver, BC.
Join Jennie and April as they share anecdotes and recipes that will make you both laugh and cry. Kapusta or Cabbage is a mother and daughter historical and culinary journey that invites you into their kitchen and warms your heart.
Excerpt from Kapusta or Cabbage:
“Listen, kid. You fry the onions until brown.”
“No, Mom. You sauté them until clear.”
“Yeah? What do you know about cooking?”
“Just about everything you ever taught me.”
“That’s all?”
“Nah, I learned a thing or two on my own.”
To find out what daughter didn’t learn from her mother, Kapusta or Cabbage combines recipes with anecdotes for a unique Ukrainian/Canadian dialogue cookbook.
