I had to control myself from being an overbearing fan. She is a very elegant and friendly person with a wealth of knowledge.

Food that is interwoven by memories and nostalgia always tastes better. It’s been a long time since I used black sesame seeds in a dish. I thoroughly enjoyed reading Ammini’s cookbook. Its unpretentious and filled with so many lil stories of the land. It made me want to seek out similar books for every regional cuisine.
Dear Priya, What you say about traditional recipes is so true. They are a real treaure.

What a lovely tribute from Ammini. This is a book I have been coveting; now I will surely get a copy. I agree with the others — photos from the past lend a tender nostalgic note to the words :)

Yesterday, I stopped into a new Indian grocery near my usual haunts, and immediately thereafter several older ladies entered. This new grocery, it seems, was a saree shop in a previous life — the ladies had come in expecting clothes and found fresh veggies instead. One lady in particular looked a bit like dear Pedatha… so I was thinking of you all.

Wishing you all the best as always,
Linda

Oh Linda…thank you for your lovely comment. We are so touched that Pedatha has touched your heart…tough to believe you never really met her :) . Take care.
