Masalamandi

<p>The book you are holding is a unique cookbook about Indian spices specifically focusing on the intricate<br>world of spice blends. What is fascinating about spice blends you ask? Well a garam masala may<br>contain anywhere between four and fifteen varied spices; a pickle masala may have a different recipe<br>in Andhra Pradesh than it does in Delhi; a chai masala may have a distinctive recipe in the winter<br>than it does in the summer. <p/>In Masalamandi the author sets out on a quest to unravel how a single dish can be prepared with<br>multiple spice blends all created from the same whole spices yet resulting in distinct flavours! While<br>sharing his own experiences and interactions with these spice blends he also offers a comprehensive<br>exploration of the history mythology and cultural significance that surrounds each of them. <p/>This is a spice trail like no other.</p>
