The 1Shanthiroad Cookbook is a collection of recipes from the community kitchen of 1Shanthiroad Studio/Gallery, Bangalore's oldest running non-profit residency and arts space.
Compiled and edited by the space's founding director, Suresh Jayaram, it serves as a portrait of an evolving cultural community, featuring recipes from over 70 contributors, including artists, curators, patrons, residents and the extended family of friends of the space. Emerging from and responding to the history and legacy of 1Shanthiroad, the cookbook frames the kitchen as integral to the site and function of the space, mapping recipes across generations, cultures, and timelines, while anchoring itself in the cultural history of the wider city.
