💨 Abstract

Nobel laureate economist Abhijit Banerjee, a food enthusiast, believes that mindfulness towards ingredients connects European, Chinese, and Indian cuisines. He spoke at the Jaipur Literature Festival, stating that great cuisines often originate from constraints, such as making delicious meals from everyday ingredients in India. He compared this to the strategic use of cheap ingredients in Europe and Italy, and the abundance of meat in American cuisine.
