Descriptions du produit

From Publishers Weekly

Indian-born and -raised Padmanabhan is a veteran cook and writes on culinary matters for Madras Musings , a South Indian newspaper. Here she muses for Americans on meatless meals and snacks originating in the Southern part of her native country; "dakshin" means "south" in Sanskrit. The author directs us on basics: there are recipes for curry powder, chili powder, rasam powder. She also defines what may be unfamiliar menu staples--sambars, or first courses, distinguished by tamarind, dal, or buttermilk foundations; poriyals, or sauceless curries, made with stir-fried (or occasionally deep-fried) vegetables. Her recipes are varied, authoritative and imaginative, especially those in the chapter on snacks, where breads vie with each other for primacy. Not everyone will find it possible to cultivate a taste for the often creamy, overly sweet desserts. But the chutney section comes as a refresher. Padmanabhan also provides recommendations for menus, a glossary of Indian terminology and a list of specialty Indian food shops in this country. Color photographs on nearly every other page are even more than usually tempting.

From Library Journal

The Indian food that most Americans are familiar with is from North India. Here are two new books to expand their horizons. Dakshin, the first in a new series, is a lavishly illustrated introduction to the cuisine of South India, where most of the population is Hindu and vegetarian. The author, an Indian food writer, presents dozens of recipes for the various courses of a South Indian vegetarian meal, most accompanied by inviting full-page color photographs. American cooks may recognize a few dishes from Indian restaurants, but most will be new. Although some of the ingredients may be somewhat difficult to find, Padmanabhan's recipes should be worth the effort. Law, a cooking teacher and author of the excellent Southeast Asia Cookbook (LJ 8/ 90), has traveled frequently to India over the last decade. She has collected recipes from both home cooks and chefs throughout the country, but here she emphasizes the lighter dishes of the South, usually but not always vegetarian. She has adopted a few dishes, cutting back on the fat, but most are authentic versions. Law's text is both informative about Indian cuisine and culture and a pleasure to read, and her recipes are very accessible to Western cooks. Both titles are highly recommended.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Excellent, Jui 19 2004
Par Un client
Amazing book. All recipes I have tried were great. It is the kind of book where just looking at the photos makes you hungry.
(I am an Indian, though not a South Indian.)

5.0étoiles sur 5 a wonderful cookbook, Janv. 8 2004
Par Clark Jones "C.Jones" (Astoria, N.Y. United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
Well, what can I say other then this book is the greatest!
It has opened up a whole new world as I have very little experience with South Indian food.I find most cook books are beautifully designed and very inspiring until you actually cook from them and then you find out quickly that the author is culinarily clueless.
The recipes in this book look like the accompanying photos which is unusual in the cookbook world
I made a Sambar dish and offered to an Indian aquantence who works on my block. He tells me that my Sambar is better then his wife's , who is from India. He sitll can't quite comprehend a white American Male cooking Indian food. He keeps asking me for more ,I'm sure his wife doesn't know...
(On the side, one photo comment:
The photo of mixed vegetable Kootu has mustard seeds sprinkled on it but the recipe does not contain mustard seeds...OK, I'm getting picky..)
All in all this is now my favorite Indian cookbook and has tweaked in me the desire to travel to South India.
