Description

Mughal emperors governed their vast empire with the help of nawabs a title they bestowed on semiautonomous Muslim rulers of princely India. Over a period of time these nawabs became powerful rulers in their own right and created a distinct culture of their own with food being one of its most everlasting legacies. Heavily influenced by Mughal sta...ples and technique of cookery, the nawabs refined their cuisine by adopting local flavours from the refined palates that dominate the table at Rampur and Avadh to the incredible array of delicacies from the kitchens of Bahawalpur and Khairpur, now in Pakistan. For the first time, Dining with the Nawabs allows you a rare opportunity to visit the tables and palaces of these families, to know more about their lifestyles and their love affair with gourmet cuisine. This special edition also comes with a Kitchen Copy with some of their most beloved family recipes that you can recreate in your own homes.
