World Kitchen: France and World Kitchen: India are the latest titles in a new series of six culinary journeys exploring the influences of geography, climate, culture and tradition that have shaped some of the world's most popular cuisines. Venture into the behind-the-scenes world of growers, artisans and chefs, and learn how their passion for their work helps maintain and re-interpret the traditions and flavours of a nation's food. More than 150 recipes are featured in each book, selected to best reflect the unique characteristics of each country's cuisine. Lavishly illustrated with location photographs as well as images of finished dishes and authentic cooking techniques, the World Kitchen series is a source of inspiration for the cook and an evocation of a place many people will remember fondly from their travels and others will now yearn to experience. World Kitchen India contains special 'food journey' features, such as seafood, spices, breads and tea which focus on aspects of agriculture and food production. The recipes include tiffin, rice and grain dishes, curries, breads, vegetable accompaniments and sweets.
