The Illustrated Masala Lab: Beautiful New Edition of the Bestselling Book on the Science of Indian Cooking

The book was nicely packed. The illustrations are fun to look at. The language used is very simple and yet it does not fail to explain important things one needs to know about cooking and food. A good book for beginners to have.

The book is a brilliant read not only for cooking enthusiasts but for anyone who'd enjoy a science lesson with a touch of wit. It explains the science behind Indian cooking in layman's terms, you don't need to be a science graduate to understand. I wish my science teachers in school had explained this simply. I love the idea that on which the book is based - that while Indian cooking is treated as a complex art, one that cannot be taught unless it has been passed down to you from your ancestors, if you understand the science that goes behind it then it is not difficult to master. The book aptly notes that lack of proper documentation of Indian cooking techniques, noting the 'why' behind them, is what makes everyone wary of it. The amount of research that's gone into making this book is so evident. A treat to read!

This book answers lot of my questions / queries which were open since I dwelled into the cooking world ☺️

The content in the book is quite good but the quality of the pages in the book is quite bad. Pages are yellow and has a very rough feeling.

This was a gift for someone and THEY LOVED IT SO SO MUCH! Its a brilliant read! AMAZING WORK KRISH
