My Thoughts:

JD in the Kitchen: Indian Sweet Snacks is a slim volume chock full of yumminess. You all know I love my sweets, and there are so many recipes I want to try, especially anything involving coconut and almonds. I love Indian food, especially cooking it myself, but I have only made savory dishes so far and can’t wait to dive into some sweet ones.

The pictures are in full color, and I love that the book is spiral bound with thick pages. Overall, this cookbook is great quality, and I am excited to check out more of Jasmine Daya’s cookbooks in the future.

I received a gifted copy. All opinions are my own.
