I have to admit that I was a little intimidated when I first picked up The Ayurvedic Cookbook. I am new to Ayurveda. I have been reading everything I can get my hands on about the system and have started to change the way I eat according to these principles. However, to this point, I have been looking at specific foods and tastes to help my own health rather than trying to create a whole meal for my family.

Ah yes, I finally bought this book, which Emily had in our kitchen during college! Yup, gotta reduce that Kapha, man! Unlike back then, I actually enjoy eating both vegetables and Indian food now, and am willing to try something a bit different to help in my healthy-eating quest. :)

Love this cookbook! Great recipes, and she gives instructions on how to modify the dishes according to your dosha.
great information
This is easy to understand. Plain and simple ayurveda for the people. No panchakarma or other exotic regimens, just a gentle persuasion for Western readers. Not new but still the best.

I like the recipes in this book, they are all vegeterians and useful for people who wants to be vegeterian.
I am not vegeterian yet.

Already wrinkly and stained from many kitchadi cooking sessions. The book is worth the price for that section alone.
don't be fooled by the cover or lack of visual appeal, this is full of great info. and advice!
