WINNER GOURMAND COOKBOOK AWARD for Best Foreign Cuisine Cookbook
"Highly recommended: a 'must' for any serious international cookbook
collection: there's simply nothing like it on the American market."
--The Midwest Book Review
The landlocked nation of Nepal is tucked into the Himalayan mountains
between India and Tibet. Nepali cuisine is surprisingly diverse for such
a small country, with influences from both neighboring countries. In
this cookbook, the popular staple daal-baat-tarkaari (rice served with
lentils and vegetables) is showcased in all its healthful variations, as
are a variety of potato, meat, and fish dishes.
With more than 350 authentic, easy-to-follow recipes, Taste of
Nepal is a complete culinary journey with guides to Nepali
ingredients, kitchen equipment, and planning traditional meals, a
Nepali-English glossary of terms, and delightful illustrations by a
Nepali artist.
