Review title: Adjusted for Americans
Product review: I don't like this book, because it is too adjusted to Western taste-buds. Why go thought all the work to learn about a new cuisine go to ethnic supermarkets just to produce dishes that somebody considers suitable for American. Why not go more for the real thing? Or at least a book that would present the real thing alongside the Americanised/simplified version.Furthermore, there is no attempt to teach anything about Indian cuisine as if such a term really existed. The country is pretty big. We get some decent and some super simplified recipes. Honestly, what is the point of just removing the 20 minute soaking of the basmati rice before cooking? We are just told that the author uses this simplification. Sure the book can be useful for people who do not know anything about Indian cooking. However, I would direct those people to the web instead. For those of us in search for something more genuine this book is not for us.
