Gowd Saraswat Brahmin's Cookbook
Author: Annapoorna Nayak
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 9781523947188
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 126
Book Description
If you thought ghassi, sambhar and idlis summed up the cuisine of the Gowd Saraswat Brahmins (GSB), you are quite mistaken. The food cooked in a Brahmin home is essentially sathvic paying special attention to the balance and nutritive value of the dishes prepared. Simple lentil soup, 'dhali toy', served over the steamed rice and the topping of a dollop of homemade clarified butter/ghee is a probably the one most loved comfort food for GSBs. There are complex curries like 'val-val', spicy 'teeksani ummans' and slightly sweet 'ambe sassam'. You would see variety of plain and spicy food in a meal that is balanced with a glass full of thin curds, 'taak' as a final course to set right any imbalance in the food eaten for the day. Even though GSB cuisine comes from spice rich regions of Karnataka and Kerala, we see very limited palette of spices being used, yet, it lacks nothing in terms of taste and deep digestive philosophies relevant to food. The cuisine revolves around mustard seeds, cumin seeds, curry leaves, chillies and turmeric. Ginger as a digestive aid, Green leaves of all kinds as high fibre source, dried lentils and beans as nature's tiny capsules of proteins, turmeric as healer of wounds and sundry health issues, asafoetida for controlling gastric problem; every ingredient used in the GSB cuisine has a purpose that goes beyond taste and texture. There are about fifty select vegetarian recipes in this book showcase the wide variety and infinite inventiveness of the GSB kitchen. Lesser-known dishes, featuring specific types of vegetables or leaves, an awesome array of chutneys and pickles, and delightful sweets without which no meal can be complete, are also lovingly included. The book starts with the history and culture of the GSBs. This book is a much-needed addition to the library of any discerning gourmet or anyone with an interest in diverse cuisine and culture of India.

Essential Goa Cookbook
Author: Maria Teresa Nenezes
Publisher: Penguin UK
ISBN: 9351180018
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 212
Book Description
Over two hundred recipes from one of the best coastal cuisines of India The spicy, succulent seafood of Goa is as famous as the golden beaches and lush landscape of this premier tourist destination of India. Traditionally, the Goan staple was fish curry and rice but under Portuguese influence there developed a distinctive cuisine that combined the flavours of Indian and European cooking, with local ingredients being used to approximate the authentic Portuguese taste. So fish and meat pies were baked with slit green chillies, assado or roast was cooked with cinnamon and peppercorns, pao or bread was fermented with toddy, and the famous baked bol was made with coconut and semolina. This innovated, largely non-vegetarian cuisine was offset by the traditional and no less sumptuous vegetarian creations from the Konkan coastland, rich with coconut and spice. The Penguin Essential Cookbooks are a pioneering attempt to keep alive the art of traditional Indian cooking. Each of the books is written by an expert chef who brings together the special recipes of a region or community along with a detailed introduction that describes the rituals and customs related to the eating and serving of food. A delicious mix of Portuguese and Konkani flavours, rich with coconut and spice. This cookbook showcases an entire range of Goan food, with special attention to fish, prawn, pork and chicken. The recipes include: Bebinca Goa Fish Curry Mutton Xacuti Oyster Patties Prawn Balchao Sorpotel Stuffed Crab Tiger Prawns in Fen Vindaloo.

Pages : 256
Book Description
Prabha's Kitchen is a compilation of traditional Konkani cuisine that has enthralled the Konkani folks for ages. The culinary habit is a unique component of their culture and has remained a mainstay in their daily lives. Moving away from a joint family across generations has created a vacuum for Konkani food and traditions. I have therefore tried to consolidate the details of the traditional Konkani spread. The intent of this book is to have Konkani cuisine in print. The recipes are pure vegetarian and are traditional for the Konkani community from Kerala. The book could help satiate the nostalgia and yearning for an authentic Konkani culinary fare. It would not only help the Konkani youngsters, but also others to explore Konkani recipes.

Amchigele Delights: from the Kitchens of Nayak
Author: Naresh P. Nayak
Publisher: Prowess Publishing
ISBN: 1545747695
Category : Cooking
Languages : en
Pages : 166
Book Description
Amchigele Delights is an attempt to compile recipes of food served in the homes of the GSB Community, temples or any otherplace of spiritual interest in India which belongs to the Community. The food served at these places is also known as sacred food because it comes from a kitchen where people may have either forgotten the recipes or may have lost the art of bringing in flavour into the food. These recipes have been around for long but not much is known to the outer world about this cuisine. This book will bring to light the GSB kitchens which serve these hearty meals.This would be followed by actual recipes that would be categorized depending on their meal type. Most recipes would be easy to make using minimal ingredients. The reason why the book is needed, the need it will fulfil, its fit with contemporary literature. GSBs (Gaud Saraswat Brahmins) are comparatively a small community. The GSBs originally lived on the banks of the river Saraswati. The name Sarawat is derived from either the river Saraswati or from their spiritual leader, the sage Saraswat Muni who used to live on the banks of Saraswati. Their mother tongue is Konkani. Saraswat cuisine is the cuisine of the Saraswat Brahmins from the Konkan region on the western coast of India. Saraswat cuisine originally hails from Goa, India. In the sixteenth century they had to migrate to other parts of the country like the Malenad and the coastal belt of Karnataka and Kerala, besides Maharashtra.Their curries use a lot of coconut oil, tamarind, and curry leaves and the cuisine is largely influenced by South Indian cuisine. It is slightly similar to Malvani or Konkani and Udupi or Mangalorean cuisine. The food served at most of GSB homes is simple yet extremely healthy and nutritious. This GSB cuisine can be adapted in our daily lives to avail its benefits.This book will also cater to GSB people who have migrated into other countries. Recipes have been simplified as far as possible so that maximum users can follow them.
