First things first, so let's start with the man who gave the Order of Pomiane its name.

He was born in 1875 in Paris in a Polish noble family and his real name was Edward Pożerski.{{czyt|Edward Pożerski}} His parents were refugees who had fled Poland after the failed anti-Russian uprising of 1863. They sent him to a Polish high school in the French capital, where he was raised as a Polish patriot, but fed rather poorly. He would later write in his memoirs that he was hungry most of his youth. The hunger kept him thinking about food so much that once he graduated from school, he chose to study gastrointestinal physiology at the univeristy. He became a doctor of medicine in 1902. By that time he had already worked for a year at the Pasteur Institute, where he would keep doing research on digestive juices for most of his life.

Some time ago, Prof. Jarosław Dumanowski, head of the Culinary Heritage Centre at the History Department of Copernicus University in Toruń, advised me to take interest in the collection of old hand-written recipes that are held in the archives of [http://muzeum.jedrzejow.pl/o-nas/zbiory Przypkowski Museum in Jędrzejów]. Now, anyone who's ever heard anything of that institution, will surely understand my initial reaction: it's a museum of sundials, though, isn't it?
