Brilliant book as a introduction to over a hundred varieties of Kashmiri cuisine, both Pandit (Hing-Curd)and Mughal(Onion-Garlic) varieties. The author credits his gourmet father for the book. He has also explained what Wazwan is, what it comprises and the customary rules of serving and enjoying the food. Apart from food the author also describes various varieties of Rice, bread, dals, Anchars, Saag, Tea (Kehwa), etc. Instructions on various food hacks like cutting styles, economizing on food, different cooking methods, drying vegetables, etc.is also given. Overall, a very engaging book for connossiors, gluttons and foodlovers alike.
