Description
This is a very special book. It is one of the first compendiums of the best recipes from all the important states and regions of India. Therefore it is a stepping stone towards the integration of India's fabulously varied cuisine. It also talks briefly about our concepts of food and the role food plays in our social and cultural lives. The personality and ambiance of every state are also described as an introduction to the selected recipes.
The book is specially designed for young, upwardly-mobile families where men and women are highly educated but, somehow, have found no time in their busy and active youth to learn household arts. Food Heritage of India gives to such bright young people, living at home or abroad, all that they would like to know about Indian food. With the help of this book, they can entertain lavishly and their homes can boast of a truly integrated Indian cuisine.
