Episode 4: Carp, Polish style; bream or carp in a fluffy sauce

Christmas Eve and Christmas are fast approaching, so it’s the perfect time to suggest something delicious with carp in the leading role. And for everyone who for various reasons isn’t fond of carp or would like to taste another fish as well, we have a recipe for bream.  In the next installment of our series we once again present recipes written down over several generations and kept in the family sideboard of Mr. Piotr Rydzewski. Many of these handwritten recipes (especially the oldest) are a real challenge for anyone trying to read and test them, but the effort always pays off – it’s worth diving into the richly varied world of dishes that appeared on our parents’, grandparents’ and great-grandparents’ tables. These notes sometimes have “blank spots” – not all include the exact composition or quantities of ingredients, and some omit steps that today are no longer always obvious. But that’s what culinary intuition, inventiveness and imagination are for! You can fill the gaps with your own ideas, use the experience you already have, and treat ambiguities as a touch of mystery – the seasoning of this tasty adventure. So perhaps this time we will inspire you, dear Gourmets, to prepare your own version of a holiday carp or bream…  Thanks to Mr. Piotr’s kindness, let’s once again look not only into the culinary notes but, as always, also into his unique album. To begin with, a bit of history that speaks very vividly through archival family photographs.  We dedicate the photos below above all to those who often make long flights to spend Christmas and the New Year with their loved ones, especially here, in Poland, where, as we know, this time is the most beautiful, the tastiest and the most heartwarming. Here are unique photos taken in the 1930s at Łódź’s Lublinek airport.

Episode 3: Beef tenderloin roast and pan-fried tenderloin

We warmly invite you to read the third installment of our special series, in which we present a family story not so much “from the kitchen” as in connection with culinary tradition—with old and somewhat newer recipes. In this story, good taste plays an important role—literally, because the people mentioned here were united not only by family ties, ideals, a sense of mission or a work ethic, but also by the home table and the meals eaten at it—both everyday and exceptional. And since our thoughts are already circling around the upcoming Christmas holidays, a truly festive flavor will accompany us in this episode.  Thanks to the courtesy of Mr. Piotr Rydzewski, let us once again look into his extremely interesting family archive. So, as usual—first a few sentences of story and unique photographs, and then the culinary part…  We encourage you, dear Readers—try using the given recipes at home, adapting them not only to today’s possibilities but also to your own preferences. Creating dishes with wonderful flavor is the best way to create a unique atmosphere, so needed especially during the Christmas and New Year season. In the previous episode we recalled, among others, the figure of Antoni Kuźnicki—a railway official of the Kalisz district and Mr. Piotr’s great-grandfather. Mr. Antoni played a significant and noble role in the history of the railways—at a time extremely important for Poland. Here is an exceptional document, issued on November 11, 1918. We all know this date as one of the most important days in our history—the day of regaining independence.  [[img:skan_20080416130_do-cz.3.jpg]] © Piotr Rydzewski  This letter, marked with the stamp of the Union of Railwaymen of the Łódź Junction, as well as the exact time (10 p.m.) and signed by members of the railway administration, obliges Mr. Antoni, a traffic department clerk, working at 21 Składowa Street, to “upon receipt of this order immediately proceed to take over from the Germans the Łódź Kaliska station and staff with Polish railway personnel all stations and posts up to Szczypiorno” [Szczypiorno is today a housing estate that is part of Kalisz].  When traveling by train today, especially in the Łódź region, it is worth remembering people like Antoni Kuźnicki, thanks to whom independence arrived in many places by rail—literally, along with the whistle of the locomotive and Polish railwaymen.  And now the recipes—this time two hearty meat dishes that can be an excellent proposal for holiday dinners. Starring—the tenderloin! In the recipes we generally keep the original spelling, introducing only the necessary linguistic and editorial changes.
