Reception

[edit]

Shreemayee Das, in her review for The Free Press Journal, appreciated the work and wrote that ‘the task before Ved was momentous, yet her research is detailed and elaborate, spanning centuries.’[1] Though Das commented that she loved the introduction part of the book, she felt that the book was over ‘without exploring in a detail’.[1]

For LiveMint, Avantika Bhuyan wrote that ‘covering an expanse of history, from the Indus Valley Civilisation to present-day India, a new book looks at global influences on our food.’[3]
