Elaine Schmitz's Recipes and Recollections of My Greek American Family is a warm and charming account of the generations of Greek Americans that informed the author's childhood and adult life. Tracing her roots back on both sides to the "old country," Elaine recounts how her grandmothers, aunts, uncles, mother, and father infused her sense of food and family. Filled with traditional and updated recipes, Elaine brings people, places, and food alive, all around a big Greek table. - Kathleen Taggart - Director, Draeger's Home and Cooking School.
