Saraswat/Konkani Cuisine Recipe Books

Rasachandrika _ Saraswat Cookery book Published in 1938 in Marathi, this is the first book on Konkani cuisine. It has a very good list of all recipes using locally available vegetables, not the most well presented like today’s cookery books but the details are all in there 🙂 It also has a list of home remedies.
