Abstract. The Ukrainian cookbook of Galicia of the interwar twenty years, outlining its experience of food practices and gastronomic culture of that time, today arouses considerable not only scientific but also public interest, but still remains on the margins of historical and bibliographic studies. Meanwhile, she continued the best traditions of Ukrainian culinary book publishing in the second half of the XIX — early XX centuries.

The article first explores the history of the creation of a modern cookbook of the early XX century — «New Vitamin Cuisine» (1928) by O. Zaklynska. The figure of the author of the publication, which popularized the Ukrainian culinary discourse with its national traditions in their combination with the best examples of European cuisine, was also revealed.

The object of research is the history of O. Zaklynska’s cookbook, and the subject is the book itself. The research methodology is based on the application of the principles of scientificity, objectivity and historicism, and in the process of studying the material the problem-chronological and typological methods, the method of historical reconstruction and biography were used.

The main source for the disclosure of research topics was the epistolary of O. Zaklynska from the surviving family archive, which sheds light on the process of creating the book, its publishing nuances.

O. Zaklynska as an extraordinary figure of her time left a noticeable mark in the history of Ukrainian culture, and her «New Vitamin Cuisine» is interesting not only for its selection of recipes and translation of culinary experience in our time. As one of the nation-building factors, it establishes the necessary optics for the conceptual understanding of our historical past, because, through such an everyday thing as food, it not only reveals the past (Ukrainian culinary traditions), but also demonstrates the need for intergenerational memory in our culture.

Keywords: Osypa Zaklynska, «New Vitamin Cuisine», Hryhoriy Hanulyak, culinary discourse, Ukrainian, modern, epistolary, Galicia, beginning of the XX century.
