More than two hundred dishes gloriously represent the range of flavors and cuisines of India's regional groups including:
- Anglo-Indians of Calcutta: Hearty, spicy and deeply satisfying foods.
- Bengalis: Delicious seafood and vegetarian dishes, and exquisite desserts.
- Jews of Calcutta: Imaginative combinations of Middle Eastern and Indian elements that follow the traditional dietary laws.
- Kashmiris: Food that combines Hindu and Muslim traditions with creative use of vegetables, fruits and nuts.
- Parsis: Piquant and innovative dishes from the descendents of the Persians.
-Tibetans of Darjeeling: Food that displays the shared influence of China and India in Tibetan culture; stuffed breads are a particular favorite.
Here is an extraordinary experience for the practical, health-conscious cook and the culinary folklorist alike.
