Description
Jainism is not just a religion but a beautiful way of life. Considering that food is an important aspect of life, the Jain scriptures have clearly delineated rules for preparation and consumption of food, based on the ultimate principles of compassion, non-violence and respect for even the lower life forms, including plants and bacteria.
Jain cooking enthusiasts often have trouble converting their favourite International recipes, in conformance with the Jain principles of cooking. In this book, I have attempted to present several all-time favourite International recipes, spanning several world cuisines such as Mexican, Chinese, Italian, Thai, French etc., in a Jain rules compliant form, thereby adding them to the repertoire of Jain Cooking.
Surprise yourself and your Jain Friends with exquisite meals comprising your favourite International recipes; all cooked in your own kitchen and completely in accordance with the Jain standards. Good luck!
