blog details: At a time when it was impossible to write cookbooks in Bengali, Pragyasundari Devi published six volumes on a variety of vegetarian and non-vegetarian meals.
For her, culinary practice was the methodical execution of an artistic performance. In order to introduce Vasudhakutumba to the marvel of such culinary delights, Pragyasundari Devi included her own two thousand recipes in the book. After all this time, her books should be considered a compulsory first read of home science students. Her cookbooks are not just pioneering in the field of cooking, Pragyasundari Devi's Mahagrantha is actually the cookbook's final word.
By compiling those works into multiple carefully curated volumes, the book Amish and Niramish Ahar has been published according to a new publication plan. The vegetarian recipes are covered in the first volume, Hardback ISBN 9788172152178, ebook ISBN 9789390501625, that includes part 1 and 2 of the original book. A vegetarian recipe that isn't included in this book is difficult to imagine. This volume serves as a stand-alone vegetarian diet textbook. The book has been updated with the proper annotations in every section. A comprehensive alphabetical list of the included recipes has been attached.
The second volume of Amish and Niramish Ahar II, Hardback ISBN 9788172154516, ebook ISBN 9789390501786 according to the new publication plan includes all the non-vegetarian dishes.
Pragyasundari Devi was born in 1870 AD in the Tagore household. She was the second daughter of Hemendranath Tagore— Maharshi Debendranath Tagore's third son, Hemendranath Tagore. She later got married to Lakshminath Bejbarua, a well-known Assamese author.
Since childhood, she had been passionate about cooking. Her father Hemendranath gave immense encouragement and motivation. Apart from the conventional education and singing, Hemendranath wanted the kids to learn how to cook. He also hired a professional cook to work in the home and set up a proper ambience for the children. The six-volume work, Amish and Niramish Ahar is Pragyasundari's most enduring accomplishment.
The narrative …Ebang Apala Atreyi by Anjan Sengupta chronicles the pursuits of ancient Indian women-sages who upheld Vedic literature. As the contemporary men-sages of the Vedic era, these women-sages were well-versed in the Vedas and Upanishads and were able to argue with the male counterparts of their era with ease. They also possessed knowledge that was well beyond their time. The main character of this story is these female philosophers who donned clothing similar to those of their male counterparts and carried shorn heads with chotis behind their heads. They were honoured by both kings, members of royalty and regular people.
