About this product
Product Information
Did the European traders come before the Arab conquerors? Can you say cinnamon is an Indian spice even though it first grew in Sri Lanka on the Indian subcontinent? What are the origins of chutney and samosa or of the fruit punch, and how are they connected to India? Who taught us how to make ladi pav, and how did the Burmese khow suey land up on the wedding menus of Marwaris? In Whose Samosa Is It Anyway the author tries to find an answer to the most basic questions about Indian food only to conclude that there is no such thing as a definitive Indian cuisine and that there are as many hyper-local Indian cuisines as there are Indian states.

Reviews
Praise for Tiffin: "A vast and vivid compendium of Indian cuisine. . . . a beautifully designed and inclusively written account of modern Indian cuisine that embraces a multiplicity of tastes and techniques." The New York Times , one of 'The Best Cookbooks of Fall 2018' "The care and dedication [Sonal Ved] took when creating this cookbook shines through each illustration and brightly colored photograph... . Tiffin is the cookbook for those who are looking to delve deeper into the diversity of India." Saveur "Tiffin , with its encyclopedia-like heft and colorful illustrations by Abhilasha Dwan, is my new coffee table fixture. It's the kind of book I'll keep picking up and referring back to, learning something new about Indian cuisine every time." Bon Appetit, All the Cookbooks and Regular Books We Adored in 2018 " Tiffin is more than just a cookbook. It's a tour through India that sheds light on the country's regional specialties and nuanced flavor combinations to demonstrate the culinary diversity of the country." The Reference and User Services Association (RUSA), a division of the American Library Association

Item as described, good price, well packaged, arrived slightly later than hoped (not in time for Christmas ) but the order was placed in a very busy shipping period. No issue with the seller’s speed of response and sending the item. Great seller!

Quality and hard to find book that won't be released 'til January 2025 in the U.S.A.
Fantastic price.
Book was in a secure and protective package. Arrived a few days after I placed order and that was faster than I expected.
Seller is a fantastic communicator and proactive in regards to tracking status. I'd definitely buy from them in the future.

I was pleasantly surprised by how soon I received this textbook given that it shipped from outside the U.S. It was packaged well with no damage. The price was right. And I greatly appreciated the communication informing me where the book was shipping from and including a tracking number. Overall, a positive experience, - online shopping the way it should be. I've bought books from this seller several times now without any complaints and will surely buy from them again. Thanks a lot!
