It also uses heavy cream in payesh (bengali rice kheer), we traditionally never use this instead we use full fat milk. My grandma doesn't even know what heavy cream, condensed milk or zucchini etc is. Traditional is only 'aloo posto', nothing else. What is 'zucchini aloo posto'? if I say this name in front of my ma or grandma it will sound to them like alien thing. we either steam it or keep it to set overnight like yogurt, and also we don't use fresh cream or condensed milk. really? is it traditional? we never bake it. Let me start with our iconic dish 'mishti doi'. so i know what bengali cuisine has to offer.ДЇirst of all this book is not authentic bengali recipe book because authentic means no modern techniques, and no fusion of recipes. and trust me I cook well, cooking is my passion now. i am a bengali girl and my ma and grandma are fine cook, i have learnt cooking from them. It's not a traditional authentic bengali recipe book. Some of the recipes can be a bit time-consuming but none of them are very hard to make and they're definitely worth the effort. Overall this is a fantastic cookbook for someone who already knows and loves Bengali cuisine or for people curious to try a type of Indian cuisine that isn't widely available in the US. I did have to get some ingredients from an Indian grocery store and I've had to make substitutions for the fish in the recipes but the effort has been more than worth it. The recipes are clear and easy to follow and the photography is absolutely gorgeous. We've had some of his friends over for dinner as well and they have also been really impressed with the dishes that I've made from this book. Everything I've made has tasted incredible and my boyfriend claims that these dishes taste just like home.

This cookbook has been fantastic! I've tried 7 of the recipes so far and they've all been amazing. I love cooking and my boyfriend loves to eat so I bought this cookbook (along with another one) in the hopes of finding some authentic recipes that I'd be able to make for him.

My boyfriend is from Kolkata and Bengali food is not something you really find in Indian restaurants in the US.
