Multiple City
Author: Aditi De
Publisher: Penguin Books India
ISBN: 9780143100256
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 340
Book Description
Founded by the chieftain Kempe Gowda around 1537, the story of Bangalore has no grand linear narrative. The location has revealed different facets to settlers and passers-through. The city, the site of bloody battles between the British and Tipu Sultan, was once attached to the glittering court of Mysore. Later, it became a cantonment town where British troops were stationed. Over time, it morphed into a city of gardens and lakes, and the capital of PBI - Indian scientific research. More recently, it has been the hub of PBI - India's information technology boom, giving rise to Brand Bangalore, an PBI - Indian city whose name is recognized globally. Hidden beneath these layers lies a cosmopolitan city of sub-cultures, engaging artists and writers, young geeks and students. People from every corner of PBI - India and beyond now call it home.In this collection of writings about a multi-layered city, there are stories from its history, translations from Kannada literature, personal responses to the city's mindscape, portraits of special citizens, accounts of searches for lost communities and traditions, among much more. U.R. Ananthamurthy writes about Bangalore's Kannada identity; Shashi Deshpande maps the city through the places she has lived in since she was a young girl; Anita Nair draws a touching portrait of a florist who celebrates the glories of the Raj; Ramachandra Guha describes his close bond with Bangalore's most unusual bookseller; and Rajmohan Gandhi recounts the Mahatma's trysts with the city. From traditional folk ballads to a nursery rhyme about Bangalore, from poems to blogs, from reproductions of turn of the twentieth century picture postcards to cartoons, Multiple City is the portrait of a metropolis trying to retain its roots as it hurtles into the future.

Book Description
This is the only world cookbook in print that explores the foods of every nation-state across the globe, providing information on special ingredients, cooking methods, and commonalities that link certain dishes across different geographical areas. Increasing globalization, modern communication, and economic development have impacted every aspect of daily life, including the manner by which food is produced and distributed.

This book is an ecological, historical, and cultural examination of why certain foods are eaten, and how these foods are prepared by different social groups within the same—and different—geographical region. The authors cover more than 200 countries and cultural groups, featuring each nation's food culture and traditions, and providing overviews on foodstuffs, typical dishes, and styles of eating. This revised edition features in excess of 400 new recipes, several new countries, and additional sidebars with fun facts explaining unique foods and unfamiliar ingredients.

Aharam
Author: Sabita Radhakrishna
Publisher: Partridge Publishing
ISBN: 1543705170
Category : Cooking
Languages : en
Pages : 255
Book Description
Tamilian cookery has its own distinctive traditions, but to most people outside this community, only the stereotypes are distinguishable the ubiquitious dosai, idlis, sambars and chutneys without which southern cuisine would be incomplete. Few are aware of the rich repertoire of traditional non Brahmin Tamil cookery, both the vegetarian and the non vegetarian dishes. Sabita Radhakrishna was inspired to write Aharam as she was distressed to note that recipes were languishing and elders no longer alive to pass on their knowledge. She began recording her mother’s traditional recipes, testing and trying them out for a year or more, compiling this book which is a Bible for those women and men who consider ancient recipes sacred. Aharam has been contemporarised to suit the modern kitchen and has documented over 170 recipes which include breakfast dishes, vegetarian dishes, mutton, chicken, fish and egg dishes and sweets. Aharam-Traditional Cuisine of Tamil Nadu won the coveted GOURMAND award for the category ‘ Best Local Cookery Book in India’ for the year 2002.
