We aren’t just talking about cooking in isolation, we are talking about how cooking interacts and engages with nature, culture, sustainability, and design.
Nikita Biswal takes us into her kitchen, where she cooks alongside
a lyrical, melodious companion. Devi writes about the chaos in her kitchen mirroring the chaos in her head. Nabilah’s writing holds up a mirror that compelled us to think about how less is more.

Mahek’s words weave a circle of life, ending on the certainty of food rituals that come with the grief that accompanies bereavement.
Each of these stories renewed our understanding of cooking—as a practice, sure, but more importantly, as an understanding, as a language, as a memory, and
in transit.

Phoolkopir Barfi: The Tale of Pragyasundari Devi & Vegetable for Desserts
Had Pragyasundari Devi lived today, she may very well have been in the running for a James Beard award. Or running the Foundation itself. Growing up in Jorasanko Thakurbari, the ancestral home of the Tagore family and a Mecca of the arts in colonial-era Bengal, Pragyasundari Devi was far more than the 20th century’s vocabulary had the capacity to describe. Perhaps, today, one might recognise her as a food scholar. Others might call her a pioneer.

Olives in Rajasthan
Imagine standing on a vast stretch of land lined with thin silvery-green leafed trees swaying in the warm air of the desert. The fruit feels familiar, a green globose berry– is it karonda? You pluck this mysterious yet familiar fruit and bravely bite into it. Shockingly bitter, almost unidentifiable, this is an olive – far away from the land of gelato, pesto, hummus, or La Tomatina.

A good story, like a good dish, is born out of a carefully considered and well-executed recipe. A pitch is very much like that. A good pitch should be more than a headline and less than a story.

The act of eating together is deeply meaningful to many, troublesome for some and alienating for others. Commensality is not all romantic. Through this reading list we have tried to put together a diverse range of stuff that we read before putting this issue of there.
