DAD'S HORILKA . . . and Ukrainian CABBAGE PUDDING

Dad’s homebrew had Mom all upset and worried before Stasia’s wedding, but I remember thinking, at that time, it wouldn’t have been a real Ukrainian wedding without it.

One of my brightest memories is of sunlight slanting through poplar trees as I stand holding a little spoon under the end of a thin, coiled copper tube waiting to catch a crystal clear drop of Daddy’s horilka. 

The smoothness of that brew was much praised by friends and relatives, but Dad always refused to sell it because that would have brought unwanted attention sooner than later.

Dad never let me have more than one or two drops when he was making it, but, sometimes when I was sick with a cold, he would bring a little of his sure-fire remedy.  All of us kids got a small shot every Christmas, too.

I’m sure this explains my preference for drinking any whiskey straight.  Ice is okay, but not necessary. 

******

I do so much Ukrainian cooking now and I wish I could share it with Dad.

Here's Bohdan Zahny's Cabbage Pudding with Mushroom Sauce, p. 162.  It's good but a lot of work.  

CAMPING . . . and GERMAN SAUERBRATEN MEATBALLS

My first rule of Camping:  Relax!

This is a great magazine -- now I know what to do if I ever step into quicksand on the Dirty Devil River in Utah -- "The moment you start sinking, splay yourself out as wide as possible so you can float on top.  Ideally, you want to fall back in the direction you came from."  Do not struggle:  it took 10 guys to dig the guy out who tried to get out on his own.

                                                               ********

GERMAN SAUERBRATEN MEATBALLS  (serves 6 to 8)

     Based on Chris Christoffers’ recipe in REMINISCE.

2 eggs

½ cup dry bread crumbs

¼ cup chopped onion

¾ tsp poultry seasoning

1 tsp salt

¼ tsp pepper

2 pounds ground beef

2 cups beef broth

¼ cup cider vinegar

1 tbsp brown sugar

1 bayleaf

12 gingersnaps

*Grind gingersnaps in food processor and set aside.

*Chop the onion and set aside.

*Beat eggs in a large bowl.

*Stir in bread crumbs, onion, poultry seasoning, salt, and pepper.

*Mix in ground beef.

*Using a one-third cup measuring-cup, divide beef into large meatballs.

*Start oven preheating to 350 degrees.

Chapel of Skulls, KUDOWA-ZDROJ, Poland . . . and Polish EGG NOODLES with POPPY SEED

Bryan's Journal continues:

Saturday, September 8

 Our taxi (pre-arranged by the rentor) arrived on time to take us to the bus station for the 145 km journey to Kudowa-Zdroj, one of the oldest spa towns in Europe located very near the Czech border. The purpose of our visit was to see the Chapel of Skulls (Kaplica Czaszek).

The Wroclaw bus station, located in a posh new shopping mall is quite modern. Poland certainly has benefited from joining the European Union.

Our bus, which was full, plodded along through the countryside stopping occasionally to drop off and pick up passengers. After 2.75 hours, we finally reached our destination. It took us about 15 minutes walking with suitcases and carrying a small child to reach our hotel, Willa Sanssouci. The big yellow hotel, which was built in 1894, has spacious rooms. Bryan and Nestor had a room literally in the attic with a second story loft.

We had lunch at a pub that served Czech food and beer. 

Eleanor's lunch was very unusual and . . . delicious!

It was very hot that day but we made the long journey by foot  to a unique ossuary chapel built in the late 18^th century with the bones of people who had died during the period of the Black Plague.

The little village of  Czermna is 1 km north of Kudowa.

 It was the main reason for coming to Kudowa-Zdroj and it was top of Eleanor’s list of “must see” places.  

This is the little Chapel of Skulls.

It was very busy so unobstructed photos were not possible.

Pictures are not allowed inside.    

This was not Bryan’s big desire but there are things we do for love.  Thousands of skulls and skeletal remains adorn the interior walls, floor, ceiling and foundations. The bones of over 20 thousand people are interred in the basement.

After our evening meal at the Restauracja Sjesta we walked up the main street to locate the stop where we were to take the bus back to Wroclaw. On the way back to the hotel we strolled through a 
park

 where an all-night music concert was taking place. Even Nestor enjoyed the performances. 

The contemporary accordion music was stunning!   

Two hip young couples, who looked like gypsies, danced to it.  

This amazing cheese stall was next to the stage area.             

Walking back to the hotel . . .

 That night we were serenaded with music from the park as well as from a raucous wedding in the hotel.

KUDOWA-ZDROJ was absolutely a HIGHLIGHT of my trip!


The Willa Sanssouci was a wonderful place to stay.  

Sunday September 9

We ate breakfast at the hotel where we competed at the buffet with wedding guests (some of whom picked up fistfuls of buns for their trip home). Needless to say no one starved. It was a sunny day so we could walk into the centre of the town (ca 10-15 minutes) to catch our 10:45 am bus to Wroclaw. We nearly missed it due to a slight misunderstanding (Our Polish was not that proficient.) but friendly passengers saved the day. 

 So we were soon on our way west across the county-side in a crowded bus.

We arrived around 2 pm and picked up a taxi at the bus station to take us to the Hotel Dwor Polski. He was a fussy driver who fretted about our possibly scratching up his car. After the taxi dropped us off we quickly realized that one of Nestor’s small bags was still in the back seat of the taxi. Bryan ran for dear life after the departing taxi and fortunately was able to catch it when it was forced to stop for a vehicle backing out onto the street. Whew!

When we walked around the Rynek that evening we noticed a short silhouette drama unfolding in a series of second- story windows.

KLUSKI z MAKIEM

            From page 131 of the cookbook by the Culinary Arts Institute: 1001 GREAT RECIPES FROM AROUND THE WORLD  

I served the noodles with a Ukrainian Beet Salad and fried Cod. 

OLGA KURYLENKO . . . and Ukrainian Chornyhiv Style Borsch

Bryan and I really enjoyed this film.  

The stunning female lead in it is Ukrainian Olga Kurylenko, a  former Bond girl.

*******

The ingredients include kidneys!

          My daughter remarked, "This tastes almost like our borsch."  The ultimate compliment!

May 18 WEDDING CAKE 1974

(Undated: 8 cent stamp:   To Winnipeg:  best guess:  March or April 1974)

Dear Eleanor:

        I am writing about that I did not talk much to Bryan and Diana

I am sorry but I am not very good at talking to all people I run out of what to say that Bryan I am sorry I will make up for it in person I hope he will understand I think he’s a nice guy and besides Dad was at me that I will run you brock talking so long and he said I will not have anything left to say when you come.  There is a lot I would have liked to ask you about the cake 

if its not all right to put only soft icing like you had last time being it will be used up I don’t think it needs almond icing as its nice with only what they put over almond icing but its up to you it will cost less with only one icing I will have to take in first week in May and have it done and it will be over. 

I will try and use the table after Easter as they may be coming less with the kids 

Alines mother is in France having a good time she send the children Easter goodies

We killed a pig this week when you phoned I was in the middle of floor scrubing and waxing the living room everything looks clean I had a rest after I finnish the floors now befor supper had notting to do so thought I will write to you as I haven’t written for a long time

I washed the kitchen curtain and they look good. 

I stoped knitting may try and make few blocks for a quilt I will do in the same pattern like the one  you mentioned you want strips but it all block of strips I hope it will look good I was wondering if those velvet pant to use as a centere block I will make up one block and see how it looks I likely will not have it done till next winter and that after Christmas with so many wedding I don’t think I can do much more than garden and poultry and besides I don’t mind making blocks in summer when I hve time but making the quilt it takes over a week and I do it in Nestor’s room so don’t want it sitting there when some one comes

I phoned Diana tonight but she was out with Bill I am glad she’s having fun Dorthey said she may bring Diana some day

I will have to keep the house in order now not that I don’t but there is days that the kids and men track up my floor But I may wax my kitchen floor tomorrow it needs two coats and its hard the men allways trot in and out mostly when I am working with floor.  But Dad is going to town tomorrow if Diana & Dorthey do go home you write or tell what you would like them to bring from home.

                                            Love Mother

Nick said why I didn’t wish happy Easter from him to Bryan.

Mom was worried about decorating the cake, which she made, so the icing was added by a professional baker.   I had found the design in a Cordon Bleu magazine.  

MARY’S DARK FRUIT CAKE (for Christmas or Weddings)

********************

Mary’s Dark Fruit Cake (for Christmas or Weddings)

1 cup butter                                                 ½ cup citron

1 cup brown sugar                                                1 and ½ cup flour

3 eggs                                                            ¼ tsp. baking soda

¼ cup sour cream                                       ½ tsp. cinnamon

1 cup raisins                                                 ½ tsp. cloves

½ cup slivered almonds                            1 tsp. allspice

1 cup currants                                             ¾ tsp. baking powder

1 cup chopped dates                                 ¼ cup orange juice

Bake in slow oven (250 to 300 degrees) until done.

********************

               This recipe is more detailed than most of Mom’s recipes.  Old-tyme cooks didn’t use precise measurements: as Mom put it, they did it ‘by gosh or by golly’, adding things like flour until the dough felt right.  And they cooked in a woodstove which meant the heat was hard to regulate – not to mention that the temperature gauge on the front was always broken so the cook also had to judge when the oven was ready, once again using that old ‘by gosh and by golly’.

            I had to quantify many recipes by watching Mom and writing things down as she breezed through some complicated procedures.  So, when you see the numbers by the recipes, you should know that those weren’t ever put there by the Mary.  But, if you like things a little more systematic, like me, here are a few more instructions for that cake: 

1.  Grease a 9x9 cake pan and line it with 2 thicknesses of parchment or waxed paper.  Butter the top layer of paper.

2.  Chop the dates, mixing them with a little of the flour.

3.  Add the rest of the fruit, again mixing in a little flour to separate the pieces.

4.  Add the almonds to this mixture.

5.   Preheat the oven to 250 degrees.

6.  Mix the spices, baking powder, and baking soda into remaining flour.

7.  Cream the butter and sugar well.

8.  Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.

9.  Add orange juice and sour cream.  Beat.

10. Stir in the flour and spice mixture.

11.  Stir in the fruit and nut mixture.

12.  Bake for 3 to 3 ½ hours.  If the top of the cake browns too rapidly, cover with a piece of aluminum foil.   

Test by pressing the surface lightly with a fingertip.  If the cake feels firm and no finger imprint is left, the cake is done.

13.  Invert on a wire cake cooler for a few minutes before removing the baking tin.  

            

Aunt Nellie's 80th Birthday, 1999 . . . and PRUNE PEROGIES

            In 1931, Nellie went to school, but the year after that the school was closed because there wasn’t any money in the treasury.  So Nellie maybe never even finished grade 4.  She was sent out to work.

          Nellie had to go to work when she was only eleven or twelve years old because there was no school nearby.  She always came home for Christmas except for one year.  That time she cried and cried and said she was for sure coming home for Easter.  Ukrainian Easter coincided with English Easter that year and Nellie did come home.

****************

            “But she did well with what education she had,” said her sister, Mary.  “She worked in the McLeod Store before she got married and afterwards and everyone liked her.  The patrons liked her.”

            After her husband, Matt, died, Nellie worked for a long time.  She worked in a bakery and she worked as a cook in a hotel.  One day she was at the bus stop in Dauphin when the woman who was running it spotted her. She knew Nellie and she just happened to be interviewing women for a job in the bus stop restaurant.  She didn’t hire the woman she had just spoken to; she hired Nellie.

Manitoba Hotel in Dauphin: gone now in a fire

Sept 19, 2014:  Marilyn wrote

Mom worked here for a year, not sure how long,  This is where the Manitoba Hydro people in the Dauphin area used to go for lunch for the best soup and butter tarts around!  Bill's friend Malte Mosters was telling Bill when they both worked at Teshmond in Winnipeg how he had been taken to this place where he had incredible soup and pastry.  Bill told him he should have stuck his head into the kitchen and talked to the cook as he knew her!
> Nellie left this place when they wanted her to cut corners and stop making soup from scratch and use Bouillon cubes and stop using butter for her pastry!  She said she was not prepared to do this and walked out!

PRUNE PEROGIES

My cousin, Lily (Stadnyk) Maksymic makes these a lot!

70 prunes = 1 ¼ pounds = almost 600 g

Boil 20 minutes.

Cool.

Stuff each perogy with one prune.
