I just reread your posts, and I have a few thoughts. You're going to a Taste of Slovakia dinner, then you mention you looked up some Czech recipes. Well, Czechs and Slovaks are really different people, and their foods and cultures are a lot different. Slovaks have a lot of influence from the Ukraine and Hungary, as well as what are commonly referred to as Gypsies. From my father's side, my grandfather was Carpatho-Russyn (bet you never heard that one) and my grandmother was from the Ukraine. On my mother's side, my grandfather was Moravian and my grandmother was Bohemian. All had rich cultures, and all were very different from each other. So, all this to say that looking up Czech recipes isn't going to give you a very good idea of what Slovak food is going to be like. That would be like looking up South West recipes to get an idea of a Taste of Maryland dinner.
