    • Zakuska precedes evening meals throughout the Soviet Union. Depending on the occasion, or the economic standing of the family, these "little bites" range from humble offerings of hard salami and bread to elaborate buffets complete with caviar and smoked salmon. Whether humble or elaborate, the warmth and sincerity of the host and hostess presenting the zakuska never varies.

    Russian families set aside the time necessary to enjoy their evening meal and zakuska is enjoyed as the activities of the day are discussed. Hidden in the flaky pastries or steamed dumplings of the "little bites" are remnants of previous main courses.

    REVIEW: "I am the executive chef of a small plate dining Tapas restaurant. course books for Tapas and other small plate dining cuisines are fairly common. Zakuska is different, unheard of to many diners. This is a great sourcebook for a vast variety of appetizer style foods. I recommend this for anyone looking for a different take on small plate cuisine."
