To inculcate the importance of the rich Afghan heritage, culture and the passion for classic cuisine amongst her children, she maintained a recipe notebook. After years of being away from the country, it was food and hospitality that kept the connection with Afghan heritage alive in her household. This notebook has now been crafted in the form of this cookbook, which continues to live through many generations. This family cookbook has been written by the support of her daughter, Freshta, showing that food has the power to keep a culture alive in another place, in another time, and with another generation of life.
