NOTE: Our way of cooking isn’t for everyone. My mother is a trained chef but she doesn’t follow rules. We rarely measure. We don’t follow recipes. We are impulsive. We go on taste. Gypsy cooking historically is about using what is available. During the war, after the war, my family had to make due. This is how we learned to cook.
