New book alert! We’ve been working away on some really cool family recipe books (lots of recipes for us to drool over and cook from soon!)
This book by Jaya Mahajan @jayamahajan7 is a very special one. With stories from her many aunts, legendary family recipes and sweet handwritten notes, this book has hard to find Parsi recipes that we don’t often see in a recipe book.
One of our favorite things over here is to read the family stories, of connection and heritage, over food. And this book is a reminder of what a privilege it is to preserve those precious memories for families 🥰
| Behind the Cookbook with Sri |
Sri shares the story behind “smelly lunchbox” by Susanna Yu @smelly.lunchbox. This cookbook showcases a rich tapestry of over 30 Chinese recipes and serves as a heartfelt tribute to Susanna’s parents and their culinary heritage.
Designed in the Legacy layout this book features a linen hardbound cover and gold embossing on the cover and back. Inside you can see split-page titles, headnotes, and images, with full recipe details on the facing page.
We are so incredibly honored we could bring this beautiful cookbook to life. Another culinary legacy preserved!

Hello Everyone!
Sri here, and it’s a pleasure to see so many new faces joining us. Welcome to Heirloom Project, we specialize in crafting timeless cookbooks that preserve cherished family recipes for generations to come.
After extensive market research and testing, we’re thrilled to unveil our revamped website and enhanced service offerings.
So what does this mean?
Our redesigned website simplifies the cookbook creation process into four easy steps:
1. Choose and purchase a design, we have some really great options!
2. Email us your recipes, stories, and photos.
3. Sit back and relax as we design your bespoke cookbook.
4. Receive three hardcover cookbooks delivered straight to your doorstep.
We’ve also introduced straightforward pricing based on the number of recipes. Simply select your preferred design and quantity, and leave the rest to us.
We’ve also taken a pause on our self-service design software. We realized that the previous process was cumbersome and overly reliant on the customer. With our new full-service design option, allow us to handle every aspect seamlessly.
We truly hope these changes encourage and inspire you to embark on your cookbook publishing journey with us. Experience a streamlined and hassle-free process, all while maintaining the high-quality printing standards that your family recipes deserve.

We are overjoyed to share smelly lunchbox by Susanna Yu @smelly.lunchbox. This cookbook contains over 30 Chinese recipes and is a dedication to Susanna’s parents and their culinary legacy. In Suanna’s words:
“I’m so proud of the culture we come from, and want to preserve it through our family recipes, all in one place. I want to be able to share this with our family, relatives, friends, and most importantly, our future generations.”
This cookbook was designed with Heirloom’s Memoir layout with Susanna’s incredible photography in the interior. On the exterior we have a stunning linen cover with gold foil embossing on the spine and back.
Recipes range from mouthwatering steamed rice rolls with beef to pork & shrimp wonton noodle soup, taro cakes, and steamed thousand layer tapioca cake. Yum!
Every day, we’re so grateful for the opportunity to preserve these special recipes and memories in a Heirloom cookbook!

Sri recently spent some a couple days in Lucknow! The city’s rich food legacy, influenced by the Mughals and their appreciation for fine cuisine, is a true foodie destination. Awadh, the broader region, stands as a haven for kebabs and biryanis. The cuisine is characterized by intricate flavors, aromatic spices, and meat heavy dishes.
Here are some delicious spots Sri explored:
* Tunday Kebab: Home to legendary melt-in-the-mouth galouti kebabs and nihari.
* Shukla Chaat: The best chaat in Luknow! The large tawa is used to cook the most incredible aloo tikis, they also had a delicious seasonal chaat with peas.
* Oudhyana at The Taj Lucknow: Great for a more formal meal - standouts were the kareli, lamb calf and baadal-e-jaam, fried eggplants with saffron yogurt.
* Ram Asray: One of the oldest and best sweets shops with an amazing selection of mithai!
* Bajpayee Kachodi Bhandar: Unmissable khasta kachori, which are crispy puris stuffed with potato and masala.
* Makhan Malai: A winter specialty with whipped milk, cardamom, saffron, and dried fruit. This can be found in the Chowk neighborhood along with many local veggie stalls.
* Hazratganj: Another great area for indulging in delicious chaat and other street foods.
