Kaleva Cookbook - Softcover

The Kaleva Cookbook is a collection of favorite recipes of the Ladies of the Kaleva, of which have been shared in our homes and among our member gatherings and dinners for years. The contributors to this cookbook are members of the Knights & Ladies of Kaleva, a heritage association started over 100 years ago by Finnish immigrants who made a new home in Massachusetts, proud to be new Americans but who wished to preserve their culture for generations to come. Like our Finnish-American heritage, there are recipes from both the Finnish kitchens of our parents and grandparents, as well as favorite American recipes that have come to find their place in our families’ hearts and stomachs. Some of the recipes are original family inventions, often passed down from parent to child; while others were shared by friends, found in cookbooks and even from the internet. Additionally, we have included fun and delicious recipes that are both traditional as well as modern to the Finnish dining table. We encourage you to try these exciting recipes and expand your taste buds!
