Pull of Pulses: Full of Beans

By Vijay Kumar Thukral and Salma Husain

While legumes, pulses and lentils are used in many parts of the world - North Africa, southern Europe, West Asia, China and the countries of Latin America - it is in the Indian sub-continent that they are cooked not just on a wide scale but also with unmatched culinary skills and imagination. The daal is a staple food of this region, consumed by all economic brackets at all times of the year. This book is a tribute to the rich and awesome diversity of Indian gastronomic traditions. The recipes in the book - that include not only daal curries but also daal-based snacks, savouries and sweets - cover most regions and communities of India. It also includes several international lentil recipes. A deep knowledge of world cuisine and fine understanding of flavours have immensely helped in raising the bar of one of the simplest fares of the world.
