Recipes from a Daughter of the World

About the Book

We are all spiritual beings enjoying a human experience. Food is an amazing vehicle that enables us to connect with one another. Cooking always inspired me to learn more about people’s cultures and backgrounds. In this book, I would like to share my life journey through cooking and connecting it with so many wonderful people I have met. It has enriched my life, and I do hope that it will do the same for my readers. My life journey took me through several countries, and every bit of experience became an important part of my personality.

About the Author

The author of this book, Shama Verma, was born in the U.S.A. Since her father was a Diplomat, she and her family travelled throughout the world, never stopping at one place for more than 3 years. In some ways this was very tough on her, but it gave her the opportunity to embrace new cultures and thereby enrich her life. One way it reflected in her life was that she developed a passion for cooking and trying new dishes. From India, to Nepal, Egypt, Great Britain and USA her soul embraced and learned. But it’s not just these cultures that she met on her journey; she travelled the world with transcendental desire to learn as many new cultures as she could. Through her journey she found that food, is the language of love. With her husband, Dr. Omesh Verma and her three children, Natasha, Manisha and Akshay she travelled all across Europe meeting new friends. She passed her love to her children, with whom she loves to cook. Through this book, she intends to pass this love to her readers.
