Zaiqa e Kadwai – The Taste of Kadwai.
A brilliant cookbook that chronicles the recipes from one village in the Konkan. This wonderful self published book showcases the Muslim recipes from Kadwai and is a tribute to the ladies of the village. The book is packed with 102 recipes contributed by the ladies of Kadwai and range from breakfast, snacks, lunch and dinner dishes (both vegetarian and non vegetarian), pickles, chutneys, masalas, sweets, drinks, to seasonal dishes and more. Every recipe has an accompanying photograph so you know what the dish looks like.
I especially liked the semi-formal style of the recipes interspersed with vernacular words and extra instructions in the footnotes too.
I couldn’t have asked for a better book to kick off my list for #100bookspact2019
Thank you for this absolute gem @mipieceocake
