WHAT WE CALL MASALA (HB)

Equal parts storyteller and recipe writer, Sarina deftly ties together Hindu mythology, intimate family moments, and practical (and permissive) traditional health tips with the types of recipes you never thought you could pull off at home. Real-deal Kashmiri Hindu rogan josh. Made-from-scratch paneer. The simple yellow dal that's broken one thousand hearts. And a smoky, tangy butter chicken that'll send your local takeaway to the wall. Through more than 70 spices and fats, and 80-plus recipes, she shows readers that masala is so much more than spice.
