A bespoke family recipe book, crafted and delivered to your door.

Some recipes were never written down. They lived in a grandmother's hands, in the smell of a kitchen on a Sunday morning, in the way a dish tasted different when she made it. Preserve & Bind helps you change that, before the memory fades.

What we create together

A beautifully designed, professionally printed family cookbook built around the dishes that matter most to you. Not a template. Not a printout. A book that feels like the heirloom it is.

Each Preserve & Bind cookbook includes:

  • Your chosen number of recipes, professionally edited and designed
  • Up to 15 photographs: family portraits, dish photographs, kitchen moments, or a mix of all three: integrated into the layout
  • Foreword and family note, written with your inputs
  • Acknowledgements and end notes
  • Typeset in Nivaala's signature editorial style
  • Digital PDF copy included

Choose what works for your family

  • No. of Recipes: 10, 15, or 20 recipes
  • No. of Copies: 2, 5, or 10 printed copies delivered to your door
  • Cover: Cloth Bound, or a Hand Illustrated cover unique to your family's story

Your photographs, your way

Send us the photographs that tell your family's food story: the dish your grandmother made every Diwali, the kitchen where it all happened, the hands that did the cooking. We'll place them through the book where they belong, so every page feels like a memory, not just a recipe.

Want us to document the recipes for you?

If the recipes live in someone's memory rather than on paper, we can help. Add our Interview & Transcribe service for ₹5,000-₹10,000 (depending on the number of recipes_, we get on a call with your family member, document the recipes as they cook and remember, and take it from there. Contact us at hello@nivaala.co to add this service
