I was minding my own business one day when I stumbled across Zuza Zak’s book Slavic Kitchen Alchemy and immediately had to buy it. I fell so in love with her stories and recipes that I had to have her on the podcast. She so graciously sat down with me and spoke about so many things from Slavic herbalism to the significance of snakes in Southern Slavic culture to the identity that ties us all together.
Zuza was actually born in Poland so she has strong ties to the culture and I was so excited to pick her brain on many different topics. She considers herself a preserver of knowledge which I think is so beautiful. Enjoy!
