Live Well, Eat Better:

It is said that some people “Live to eat” while others only “Eat to live”. Although beginning as simple recipes for those who needed to eat to live, this collection of recipes represents a culinary evolution that will satisfy anyone who truly lives to eat. In fact, try a few recipes and even the most mundane eaters will quickly find themselves transformed into a true “foodie”!

Combining the unique flavors of India, Iraq and the rest of the Middle East, with the cultural culinary influences of Sephardic Jewry, this book explores the fascinating everyday and celebratory foods of the Baghdadi Jewry in Bombay. All but gone now from India, whether having emigrated to London, Australia, or Israel, these traditions are kept alive by those who learned from their mothers and grandmothers, who shared and ate, and who today teach their children.

As you try these recipes, remember the history, the obstacles overcome, and the rich traditions woven into a unique and delicious tapestry.
