Hutt cook book proves a tasty delight for judges
Hi Neighbourly folk, if you enjoy a good curry you should check out Pass It On.
The book of family recipes passed down through generations took home two prizes at this year’s national book design, the only self-published book to be nominated.
Pass It On is a cookbook of authentic Indian Gujarati cuisine, written and published by mother and daughter Shobha and Keryn Kalyan from Lower Hutt.
The Publishers Association of New Zealand (PANZ) design awards attracted nominees from all round the country.
At the awards held in October, the book took home the prizes for best cover, best emerging designer, and was runner-up in the best cookbook category.
PS. I have this book and I can vouch for the recipes in it. It is a lovely book.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
