Man, my grandmomma was from Sicily and she made the most delicious meatballs I ever tasted, like you wouldnt believe. Sadly, she died last year and she didnt leave a recipe for us so I've been trying to figure it out by myself... slowly working my through the meatball recipe here, I still cant figure out what her secret ingredient was though!!!

Interesting, thank you! I spent my childhood in Yorkshire in the UK, and I've been trying to find a recipe for this tasyy pie I remember eating all the time, but can't remember what we called it!!! Do you know a famous pie recipe from Yorkshire?

I am a 3rd generation Romanian American. 100% Romanian!!! I have 2 Romanian cookbooks as well as my mother’s hand written recipes but I’m sure what we called certain foods are not what you have been referring to. I’m looking for the sauerkraut filling for Placinta–the cheese ones are called Placinta cu Branza (pancakes with cheese) my grandmother used dry cottage cheese, eggs, sugar, sometimes golden raisings and milk. I’ll be happy to share any recipes and tips with anyone who wants them

My grandfather was 100% romanian and his sisters use to make a flat bread with dill and spinach in the dough and then it was fried jn a lightly oiled pan… i have been searching for this recipe forever and every variation wasnt quite right… i seen breads on here that include cheese that look similar but i do not recall them ever using cheese, all i remember was the spinach and dill… it was usually made for special occasions like easter or a wedding or funeral but always abundant in the spring in my granfathers freezer lol! If you have the recipe or can tell me anymore about the dish please email me at beezzer87@sbcglobal.net thank you. And @ Amelia I think i have the recipe for the bread made with the walnuts and sugar paste and then is rolled up and baked, i have made it before but my recipe isnt quite the same as the stuff i had as a child but the closest i have gotten, the bread i believe is called Kiefla’ or keifla’…? They usually made it around easter… even the church sold it … if you would like the recipe you can email me … my email is above

Some of you who have posted on this site seem to be Romanians sharing with those of us who are not well-versed in anything Romanian. I have a Romanian American landlady who has been especially nice to me while attending a sick relative out of town. I would love to give her something that would be cherished by someone from Romania. She seems interested in plants…and speaks of the beauty of Romania along the Danube. If there is a flower that is iconic in Romanian history, art, mythology…or just indicative of what is typical in Romanian landscapes…your idea for what I can give this special lady would be really appreciated. Thanks, Denise demnunez@aol.com
