We go looking for vegetarian Lost Recipes in Ahmedabad, but find far more – from an immersion into the ideas of Mahatama Gandhi, to a oneofitskind culinary museum, to a foray into understanding the simple yet deeply rooted culinary culture of the Garasiya tribes of Gujarat, and of course some beautiful Lost Recipes that celebrate the produce and seasons of the land.
