Recipes of the famous Daria Zvek Bashny.Net

Since childhood, I remember how beckoned by the fragrant aroma of homemade pastries, the idea for which my mother often found in the book Sweet Cookies by Daria Zvek.



These carefully written recipes have passed through the years and generations, and today we invite readers to use them again to bake homemade biscuits, crustaceans, verdunas and curlers, as did “sweet Daria”.

True family warmth and authentic culinary traditions are transmitted from mother to daughter, from grandmother to granddaughter. So it was with Daria Zvek, who since her school years began to write down the recipes heard from her natives.



In 1960, stacks of written notebooks turned into a book. Daria’s first recipe book, Sweet Cookies, immediately became popular and was republished nine times.

"On weekdays and holidays", "Holiday table", "To children and parents". Housewives from Ukraine and Russia, Belarus and Poland pass these books by inheritance to their daughters.



In an interview, Daria, 90, said: I love young people very much. What I write is for our young people. Because grandmothers have long been able to do this, but youth does not know. I had no time or from whom to learn.”
