Publisher Description
June Meyer, a Chicago native and graduate of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, taught Art at Deerfields Wilmot Elementary School for 25 years until her retirement in 1994. June grew up with these recipes since both of her parents were born in Hungary and they brought their ethnic dishes with them when they emigrated to America. Her family recipes had never been written down, cooking was done with a handful of this, a pinch of that. They were passed from generation to generation by daughters cooking at the elbows of grandmother and mother. As an avid reader of the rec.food.cooking newsgroup on the Internet, June found that there was a need to preserve these wonderful old recipes for future generations due to the fact that most families never wrote down the beloved family recipes and were lost when grandma died. June has assembled a sizable collection of her family's Hungarian recipes. In 1996 June and her son Aaron decided to publish her cookbook entitled June Meyer's Authentic Hungarian Heirloom Recipes. The collection grew until it finally included ninety five authentic Hungarian recipes and stories.
