Aspic Recipes from Diaspora Cookbooks

Here is a collection of several aspic recipes from diaspora cookbooks — starting with Dzidra Zeberiņa’s “Ģimenes pavārds” (USA, 1955) recipe for aspic, and ending with Balva and Atis Bredovskis’ recipe for Muzikantu gaļa (Musician’s meat) — a recipe they recorded while living in the ‘Kristus dārzs’ retirement home in Canada.

Recipes in Latvian and English.
