Tibetan Cooking: Recipes For Daily Living, Celebration, And Ceremony With Elizabeth Esther Kelly March 6, 2008

There is no better way to experience the flavor of an exotic culture than through its food. Elizabeth Kelly, long-time cook for lamas and otherTibetans shares the recipes and gustatory culture of Tibet with a remarkable array of easy-to-follow recipes using ingredients readily available in the West. Her book, Tibetan Cookbook: Recipes for Daily Living, Celebration, & Ceremony also offers a personal look into the little known aspects of Tibetan cuisine: its adaptation to modern times, and its preservation and connection with Tibetan holidays and religious ceremonies.

Elizabeth Kelly, a practitioner of Tibetan Buddhism for thirty years, was the first cook at KarmaTriyana Dharmachakra (the North American seat of His Holiness the 17th Karmapa) in upstate New York. She is a published illustrator, painter, restorer and proprietor of "Gateway toTibet" in Phoenicia, NY.
