Description
For the first time ever, the exotic treasury of secret recipes from the renowned family of Waza - the master chefs of Kashmir - are made available to all those who love the cuisine of the beautiful valley.
When Timur invaded India in the 15th century, he unknowingly introduced to the country a cuisine that is perhaps unrivalled in the world - 'Wazwaan'.
The elaborate preparation and ceremonial presentation of lavish meals, often comprising 36 courses, make 'wazwaan' a sumptuous and royal repast. Seven dishes typically form an indispensable part of the feast - 'tabakh maaz, rista, rogan josh, dhaniwal korma, aab gosh, marchwagan korma and ghustaba, Firin and kahwah (green tea)' round off a never-to-be-forgotten culinary experience.
For the first time ever, the exotic treasury of secret recipes from the renowned family of Waza - the master chefs of Kashmir - are make available to all those who love the cuisine of the beautiful valley.
