Recipes

The discussion about Bessarbian food and recipes began as a simple post on the Bessarabia SIG for some recipes and names of dishes unique to our area. This quickly turned into a passionate discussion about Bessarabian, Moldovan and Romanian food. The discussion brought back many memories for our group of days gone by. Time spent with a grandparent, parent or friend who cooked the most amazing regional dishes that were traditional of our area. Our enthusiastic group shared so many wonderful memories of foods that it was suggested we write them down, collect recipes and share! This is an ongoing project - if you have memories and recipes to share please contact us.

POFTA BUNA (BON APPETIT).

 No one knows of care;
