Kashmiri cooking has raised culinary art to such a high level of sophistication that it has acquired an exotic, almost legendary, reputation. One of the most striking aspects of Kashmiri cooking is the great variety and range it offers for all seasons and occasions. Even the humblest of vegetables is transformed into a delicacy through the subtle use of spices.

4.0 out of 5 stars
An authentic cookbook from Kashmir,

This review is from: Best of Kashmiri Cooking (Paperback)
This book is the real deal. It's poorly organized, loaded with typos and does not represent the best printing quality, but these issues are quickly swept aside by the the true strength of a good cookbook-- the recipes. The ingredients and the methods are as authentic as they can be, which may make some of these recipes tricky for a western kitchen. However, once you track down all of the exotic ingredients, you will understand why people in Kashmir find them indespensable. Many diverse spices find a harmonious balance in these rich sauces. If you enjoy Indian cooking, don't miss out on this book.

This review is from: Best of Kashmiri Cooking (Paperback)
I have a particular interest in Kashmiri cuisine out of the many regional cooking schools in India. This is not the best compilation of Kashmiri recipes, by any means, and the book is physically quite badly put together but the recipes are easy to follow and one can get a sense of what the dishes should turn out like just by reading the instructions (which is good given that there are so few pictures). My only quibble is not so much with the publication but the fact that it is not easy to come by some of the foodstuffs. I particularly would like to try the Ver spice blend but at least three of the ingredients are not available to me. I also note that a whole tablespoon of saffron is called for... If that is not a typo I'm going to have to wait until I win the lottery before I get to try it!
