The Hare Krsna Cookbook
1973 Bhaktivedanta Book Trust
Compiled by Krsna devi dasi and Sama devi dasi
“The Hare Krsna Cookbook”, originally published in 1973, was the first widely distributed book of vegetarian recipes, throughout the Movement. This was the book myself and many early devotees learned to cook from, and remains today my all time favorite cookbook, and is a constant companion in our kitchen. We offer the complete book on a PDF Format as a gift to all our readers this Holiday Season.
Dedication
Prasadam means mercy, and this Prasadam Cookbook is dedicated to the fountainhead of all mercy, the spiritual master, His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada. He is by nature kind to every living entity, but that ocean of mercy becomes fully visible in his devotees.
Srila Prabhupada has not given us some dry, canned philosophy to chew; he has given us the nectar for which we have sought so long: he has taught us how to render transcendental loving service to the Lord in all our daily activities. This book illustrates on of them.
The Process of Krsna Consciousness is usually described as one of dinging, dancing and feasting. We have already demonstrated to the world how anyone can sing and dance to the holy names of God, Hare Krsna, and now, with the publication of this Prasadam Cookbook, we hope that the whole world will feast in honor of the Supreme Lord. That will make this world like Vrndavana, the transcendental abode of Krsna, where Krsna, Balarama and the monkeys visit every kitchen with thieving intend and bless the devotees with pure love of God.

Hare Krishna! All glories to Srila Prabupada! Thank you so much for this. I still use this this cookbook, but it has fallen apart after 34 years of use—so I am overjoyed to have a new one. Also, you have a wonderful website. What nice service you are doing for Krishna’s devotees!

Hare Krishna!….thank you so much for this book…..but are you sure about the use of vanilla extract in the recipe ‘Eggless Tapioca Pudding’….many times I’ve heard that alcohol is used in that….or is it homemade?(please forgive if there is any mistake)

I guess don’t use the vanilla then. You can always use cardamon, or nutmeg, or cinnamon, or saffron for flavoring. Thanks for following our page. Hare Krishna!

That is so very kind of you! Thank you very much!
If you come across an extra 1973 book, I would appreciate if you could let me know… It’s always my favorite book and I kept giving it away and finding another. As of a few years ago, I never found another.
All glories to your service, and your caring!!
All Glories to Srila Prabhupada!! Ki Ji
