About

Explore the powerful connection between how you feel and what you eat in this inspired cookbook from acclaimed chef and Food Network champion Palak Patel.

Have you ever experienced tears of gratitude and joy after eating something? Received a kiss from a dessert that left you breathless? Tasted something so reminiscent that it brought you right back to a moment in time from your childhood?

Food can nourish us physically, but cooking and eating are also ways of connecting with our loved ones, expressing our affection for others, caring for ourselves, and celebrating life. For chef Palak Patel, cooking is the ultimate act of love. Born and raised in India and trained at the French Culinary Institute, Palak is inspired by her heritage and global travels. In Food is Love, she invites us to take a journey through the emotional landscape of food with plant-based, Indian-inspired recipes organized by the feelings they evoke: from joy and comfort, to nostalgia and love.

Do you want to express care? Are you feeling happy? Or do you want to experience inspiration? Perhaps you're in need of comfort? Whatever your mood, and whatever you're craving, you'll find ample recipes to try in this beautiful vegan cookbook, such as:

Braised Vegetable Dal
Garlic Naan
Punjabi Kadhi
Pea and Pistachio Falafel
Roasted Butternut Squash with Makani Sauce
Leek and Potato Chickpea Frittata
Roasted Vindaloo Mushroom Wraps

Reawaken your love of food as you indulge in recipes that are as nourishing for your body as they are for your soul.
