Indian-Ish: Recipes and Antics from a Modern American Family by Priya Krishna
3.0
So I really can’t write a review of a cookbook in most cases because it’s a collection of recipes and I don’t know how to properly review that. What I will say is that I love being able to explore other cultures by browsing through their cuisine. And I really enjoyed the stories that Priya Krishna told. Plus I learned to be more sensitive and less colonial when I’m talking about Indian food.
Now, full disclosure, I probably would only make a handful of these dishes. I grew up with a Southern expat mom so I’m much more meat and potatoes and stick to your ribs soul food. The recipes in this book require a lot of spices that I don’t want to invest in because I’d only use them once, maybe twice. But the food looks delicious and has me craving Indian food for dinner.
