{"product_id":"books-the-raj-at-table-by-david-burton","title":"The Raj at Table","description":"While the British were in India they developed a curious cuisine all of their own. As they made their mark on their host culture, the formidable memsahib - or English housewife - made sure that much traditional cuisine was rejected in favour of an impossible combination of European customs, and the results were frequently chaotic.  Anglo-India cooking was at its best when it achieved a kind of cultural balance; mulligatawny, kedgeree and Worcestershire sauce are all products of the Raj.  David Burton's book - subtitled 'A Culinary History of the British in India' - is now considered a classic, and was acclaimed by the Observer on publication as 'one of those rare and delightful works from which, once caught, you have no desire to escape'.","brand":"World of Books ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53671102808337,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780571143900.jpg?v=1781514735","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/products\/books-the-raj-at-table-by-david-burton","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
