Divided according to region, Hidden Kitchens of Sri Lanka interweaves recipes with heartfelt stories of everyday life from locals who opened their hearts, homes and kitchens. On the Jaffna Peninsula war widows cook crab curry and fry spicy snacks, while in a remote eastern village, local man Sumith stirs vats of smoky milk toffee over an open fire in a factory behind his home. Food is prepared for a Hindu festival, and old William boils up his Ceylon tea at Colombo's dawn wholesale market, just as he s done every day for the past sixty years. Hidden Kitchens of Sri Lanka includes over 60 recipes for everything from fragrant fish curry to vegetable roti rolls, spicy coffee to sweet rice pudding along with a full glossary of Sri Lankan ingredients and cooking equipment. A moving yet hopeful picture of the country today, Hidden Kitchens of Sri Lanka is far more than a collection of traditional recipes; it is a book as much about the inspiring people as it is about their food.
