Beginners guide to Ayurvedic cooking?

Question

I have digestive problems and have had many people tell me that going vegetarian may help and that there is a type of Indian cooking that is specifically intended to heal. What are the best cookbooks and guides to become familiar with Ayurvedic cooking?

Answer 1

i had similar issues and went mostly veggetarian by now. also Yoga and pranayam helped me tremendeously. i have started cooking indian food. i usually visit www.bawarchi.com for recipes. as a newbie i have only tried very simple dishes like dhaals (lentils) etc.

there are some basic spices that go into almost all indian curries: turmeric, corriander powder (or seeds), cumin and mustard seeds.

Answer 2

My favorite book "The complete book of raw foods"

Answer 3
