Ciasta i Ciasteczka – magazine inspirations

  • Whenever I go to Poland I try to get some magazines and books to add my collection and to give me new ideas.
  • This time I bought two magazines which have recipes for cakes and biscuits/ small cakes or cookies.
  • Known in Poland as ciasta and ciasteczka.
  •  
  • Do you get excited by new cookery books and magazines?
  • I bookmark all the ones I think I will try.
  • As this is autumn many are for nuts, chocolate and spices.
  • Also a few fruity one and there is one that contains twaórog (curd cheese) .
  • Hopefully in the next few weeks I will be trying out many of these.

Cakes from Poland

  • I am back from a short trip to Gdańsk on which I bought a couple of Recipe books.
  • One of these was was a book about cakes – ciasta – and small cakes – ciasteczka -(or buns or biscuits).
  • I got a book by the same author on my last trip, which was to Wrocław in February, – Wioleta Wójcik.
  • I am really looking forward to trying some of these out.
  • Whilst in Gdańsk I had a piece of cake called pleśniak – which was super – the name means mildew or mouldy! – there is a recipe for this and I will be trying it out soon.
