More Description

The background and life-story of the author, Sanjay R Singhal, RA, is woven into each receipt presented in "What Tastes Good! A Cookbook for People Who Love to Cook"; it is a simmering, heady fusion of Indian, English and French cuisines, with accents of Italian, Spanish and German. This is not your typical cookbook; it is a journey through Sanjay's life, and the influences and people who inspired and instructed him in the kitchen, and in the preparation of good food for good people. Sanjay presents receipts that are definitely not one's typical dish; they are seasoned and flavoured with the spices of India, the sweets of England, and the sauces of France. Here, for the first time, Sanjay discusses his childhood in South Dakota, and the influence of that rural idyll; he discusses his first forays into the basic elements of French cuisine, and his hilarious efforts to not only speak a new language, but to learn to cook with it as well. The story of this cookbook, therefore, is the story of Sanjay's life, and his ever-increasing awareness, and enjoyment, of...what tastes good.
