Description



About the Book



"With my cookbook, The Aroma of Czech Cuisine, I am proud to showcase the national Czech food, or as we call it, "Staroéceskâa kuchynée" (recipes of our grandmothers). Throughout the book, notes and mini stories accompany the recipes, unfolding a myriad of facts about Czech culture, recipe origins, folklore, history, and Czech influence in the United States. As the founder of Little Gretel, a Czech restaurant in Boerne, Texas, I am devoted to my craft and to putting smiles on the faces of anyone who takes a bite out of my delectable Kolaches. Since 2009, I have been serving the Boerne and surrounding communities by integrating my traditional Czech culinary skills into the wonderful Texas culture. All the recipes included in this book have been prepared and served in my restaurant for over a decade. These recipes exhibit the finest of Czech culinary tradition and impart the humility of Czech culture by passing down the ability to take simple ingredients and make miracles"--

Review Quotes




Chef Denise is the consummate professional whose passion for cooking is contagious. Her kolaches are legendary in South Texas, absolutely delicious. This immensely talented chef also has a heart of gold and a beautiful gift of smiling with her eyes.

-- Tanji Patton, Executive Producer for Goodtaste



Chef Denise Mazal honed her skills in renowned kitchens from Prague to Paris to Munich before introducing her fabulous kolaches and Czech cooking to Boerne, Texas at her restaurant, Little Gretel. She loves sharing her culinary adventures and food stories with students. Fostering a love of the culinary arts that transcends borders and languages, she has become an inspiration to a new generation of food storytellers, weaving a delicious thread in the Texas culinary tapestry.

-- Chef Johnny Hernandez



I was told about Little Gretel from the moment I moved to San Antonio. The wursts, schnitzels, and fermented krauts were a warm reminder of my childhood growing up in Wisconsin. However, the real star of the show was Denise, orchestrating the whole evening from start to finish, and being around her you truly understand the pride she has for her restaurant staff family and the people and cuisine she represents so many miles away. I am a better chef because of her leadership and friendship.

-- Chef Steven McHugh



Not only is Denise Mazal an exceptional chef, teacher, and an encyclopedia of Czech cuisine but an extraordinary person. I am looking forward to utilizing this book as a roadmap for deliciousness!

-- Chef Andrew Wisseman
