"Humble-sounding food with not-so-humble flavours. Just gorgeous!" POPPY COOKS "Finally! A
much-anticipated cookbook from Czechia and what a cookbook. Delicious recipes and words and
images full of character history and beauty." OLIA HERCULES My Bohemian Kitchen is a charming
collection of Czech recipes with roots in nostalgia and a surprisingly modern take on
seasonality and sustainability in the kitchen. Welcome to the food of Evie Harbury whose
Bohemian kitchen bridges the Czech Republic of her heritage and her home in East London. The
book brings to life her long summers spent at her granny's mill in South Bohemia with her
personal stories about Czech food and culture. As Evie's childhood memories simmered alongside
more recent days spent with friends and family in Bohemian kitchens Evie realized how much of
the Bohemian spirit lives through hospitality and knew she had to write about the cultural ties
between this unique country and its relationship with food. Alongside the snapshots of this
food are her deliciously simple recipes that capture the influences of the Czech Republic's
neighboring countries. Even if you know nothing of this region there's so much to discover and
enjoy. The quaint and quirky chapters include: A Bit(e) of History Granny (Babi¿ka) Beer
Snacks such as Marinated Cheese (Nakládaný Hermelín) Soups such as Chanterelle and Dill
(Kulajda) The Main Event such as Beef Goulash (Hov¿zí guláš) Meatless Mains such as Lucky
Lentils (¿öka na kyselo) Something Sweet such as Strawberry Dumplings (Jahodové knedlíky)
Bohemian Baking such as Honey Cake (Medovník)
