Gracious, welcoming with an old-world charm, it was where she first tasted the delicacies featured in this book. At that point, her interest in the food was only in eating. It was only later, when she grew up and had a family of her own that she began to appreciate the nuances of this particular culture of cooking.She belonged to a large joint family where her grandmother guided them with a firm but loving hand. Her mother was an extremely good cook and has passed on her skill to her daughters.For the family, festivals played an important role in their lives each with its own set of dishes.
