HUNGARIAN RECIPE COLLECTION

Tucked away in an old file, we found a trove of hand-typed Hungarian recipes—lost for decades and written by my husband’s grandmother, Maria, a Holocaust survivor whose family owned a cafe in Budapest. This collection is a tribute to her resilience, her love of baking, and the rich culinary traditions she carried from Hungary to Montreal. Join me as I translate, test, and bring these rediscovered treasures back to life.
