Paperback / Hardback

Why a book on Indian spice blends, you ask?
Well, a garam masala may contain anywhere from four to fifteen different spices; a pickle masala may have a different recipe in Andhra Pradesh than it does in Delhi; a chai masala may have a different recipe in the winter than it does in the summer.

This book sets out on a quest to unravel how a single dish can be prepared with multiple spice blends, all created from the same whole spices, yet resulting in distinct flavours. It offers a comprehensive exploration of the history, mythology and cultural significance behind 500 unique spice mixes from India. It’s a spice trail like no other.
