Cherished Czech Recipes

This collection of recipes satisfies both the test of time and taste.

Compiled with the Guild of the National Czech & Slovak Museum & Library, Cedar Rapids, Iowa, the book includes recipes from the Phillips (Wisconsin) Czechoslovakian Community Festival Committee, Sokol of Greater Cleveland (Ohio), and friends of Penfield.

This book celebrates the heartwarming and sustaining treats created by generations of Czech and Slovak cooks. Among the many varieties in flavor and preparation of the kolache is the “No Knead Refrigerator Kolache,” used by the Phillips, Wisconsin, festival committee to prepare as many as seven thousand of the succulent rolls for its annual fete.

Other recipes feature ease of preparation and an assortment of tastes. There are recipes for fillings made with fruits, cheese, sausage, sauerkraut, nuts, and the staple poppy seed.
