Indian Cuisine
Indian Cooking is mainly vegetarian, and blend of flavorful spices and herbs. It originates in the East.
Indian cuisine is very famous throughout the world for its distinctive spicy and delicious taste. Among their most popular foods are humus, kababs and shawarma. Indian cooking was developed a long time ago by the ancestors of Indians. For them, what made their cooking delicious is the good mix of their herbs and belief in the balance of mental and physical state.
Chiefly vegetarian, Indian cooking is a healthy mix of flavors from eastern herbs and spices blended into mouth-watering concoctions. Indian cooking exhibits some Chinese influences. In fact, there are a number of Indo-Chinese recipes popular in Indian cooking the world over.
Indian cooking is more than just an appetizing mix and playful combination of good food and spices. It's also about your overall well-being. It offers practical nutrition guides that promote awareness towards one's body. Expert chefs would normally suggest little ways to strike a balance between your emotional and mental states. Increase energy by consuming more spices; decrease lethargy by eating more raw food.
As is the basic Hindu teaching, food is but a factor. The core goal is to be one with nature. Indian cooking is centered on helping you achieve and maintain a balanced mental, physical and emotional state. The Indian belief is that you'd feel out of synch, unnecessarily lifeless or unduly argumentative if you're out of balance. Indian vegetarian cooking helps bring together peace and harmony into your goals and decisions to achieve harmony in your mind, soul and body.
An interesting concept that's a huge part of Indian cooking is dosha. Dosha is your personal constitution, what you're basically made of. Indians believe everyone has a combination of earth (kapha), wind (vata) and fire (pitta). But knowing which way your personality is leaning will help determine which food items to avoid or increase intake of. Knowing what your dosha is reveals many personality traits you may not have been aware of. That in itself - awareness - is already a key to helping you strike a balance.
Indian cooking is also a mix of exotic and familiar, daring you to try foreign Indian dishes or stay in your comfort zone. Whether you're in the mood to experiment or not, Indian cooking is versatile enough for you to find something to suit your palate and your mood. Find familiar tastes in pasta, salads, breads, rice, tabbouleh, couscous, beans, tofu and masala. Be amazed by an exotic array of raita, rasgouli, kara, mooli, alumethi, bhindi, bharta, rejuvelac, and upma. Even the names sound exotic and you might have to research what these are on your own.
Interestingly, the basic non-dietary precept of Indian cooking is consistent with the goals in Yoga and would greatly supplement and support that goal. However, balancing your doshas in various Yoga poses and food choices does not involve calorie counts and energy charts. Harmony and oneness with nature, in the Indian belief system is unity in the forces of nature inside you.
So for an interesting exploration of Eastern cuisine with a unique view of Eastern culture and lifestyle, dabble in Indian cooking concepts and lessons. You'll definitely get more than just good, tasty and extremely healthy food choices. You'll find inner peace.

![]() The Mistress of Spices List Price: Sale Price: $5.60 See Reviews For This Product DescriptionTilo, an immigrant from India, runs an Indian spice shop in Oakland, California. While she dispenses the classic ingredients for curries and kormas, she also helps her customers to gain a more precious commodity: whatever they most desire. For Tilo is a Mistress of Spices, a priestess of the secret, magical powers of spices. Through those who visit and revisit her shop - Ahuja's wife, caught in an unhappy, abusive marriage; Jagjit, the victim of racist attacks at school; the noisy bougainvillaea girls, rejecting the strict upbringing of their tradition-bound Indian parents; Haroun who drives a taxi and dreams the American dream - we get a glimpse into the life of the local Indian expatriate community. To each Tilo dispenses wisdom and the appropriate spice: coriander for sight; turmeric to erase wrinkles; cinnamon for finding friends; fenugreek to make a rejected wife desirable again; chillies for the cleansing of evil. But when a lonely American comes into the store, a troubled Tilo cannot find the right spice, for he arouses in her a forbidden desire, and following her own desires will destroy her magical powers. Compelling and lyrical, full of heady scents and with more than a touch of humour, this novel explores the clash between East and West even as it unveils the universal mysteries of the human heart. On a mythic island of women "where on our skin, the warm rain fell like pomegranate seeds" powerful spices like cinnamon, turmeric, and fenugreek whisper their secrets to young acolytes. Ordained after trial by fire, each new spice mistress is sent to a far-off land to cure the life pains of all Indian seekers, while keeping a cool distance from the mortals. Only stubborn, passionate Tilo, disguised as an old woman merchant in present-day Oakland, California, fails to heed the vengeful spices' warnings. Fragrant with spice and sensuality, this winning tale rolls off the tongue. Written in the soaring, poetic tradition of China Men and Haroun and the Sea of Stories. |
