Romance of the Indian Curry: 365 Flavours for the Year

 
Davinder Kumar (Author)
Synopsis

They say your joys multiply when you share them. Curries do equate to joy and comfort in many ways; through their rich flavours, nostalgic aromas, and the warmth they bring to meals shared with family and friends. The complex blend of spices in a curry awakens the senses, creating a comforting and deeply satisfying experience. Each region’s unique take on curry tells a story of tradition, culture, and love, making every bite a journey through history and heritage. Beyond taste, curries symbolise togetherness. Whether it’s a slow-cooked Rogan Josh on a winter night or served as a part of Wazwan, a fiery Chettinad curry served at a family gathering, or a light curry during sweltering summers, curries have a way of soothing the soul. Their ability to bring people to the table, spark conversations, with each one sharing their own version of a curry and create lasting memories is what makes them more than just food - they are a celebration of life’s simple joys. Curries do lead to bonding and forging relationships in a myriad of ways. This book had to be written! This comprehensive recipe book compiling traditional recipes from every Indian state that would grace the libraries of every culinary institute, or even Indian restaurants world over, would be a priceless resource for young chefs eager to explore and recreate authentic Indian cuisine. Since many of these recipes are near extinction, this book aims to make them accessible while incorporating modern kitchen gadgets to simplify the cooking process without compromising on flavour.
