9. Book Review – ‘Heaven’s Banquet’
Do you know anyone who loves cooking and likes trying new recipes? Heaven’s Banquet by Miriam Hospodar has 700 recipes and includes an introduction to Ayurvedic cooking. It’s more for the enthusiast than the complete beginner, and its international scope makes it an all-purpose vegetarian cookbook with Ayurveda advice stirred in for good measure.
Cook, author and cookery book reviewer, Vardit Kohn had this to say about it:
Heaven's Banquet is, without a shadow of a doubt, written by a dedicated, food loving and extremely knowledgeable author. It is encyclopaedic in scope, and will bring hours of pleasure to anyone with an interest in food, health, history and anthropology. Its opening sequel - a review of the Ayurvedic way of healing and eating and its principles - is as thorough as any cookbook could ever wish to include, and is an ode to the principles of healthy cooking in general, Ayurvedic or not. It is accompanied by an equally helpful and practical section detailing tools, tips and menus - all valid, useful and obviously the fruit of many years spent in the kitchen, sorting out the wheat from the chaff.”
