About

When she first visited northern India in 2020, instructor Nadja Peschke became immersed in the Punjabi food culture from New Delhi to Amritsar to Chandigaar. A new sensory experience waited around every corner and even similar dishes had different flavor profiles depending on the region. Join her on an exploration of taste and explore the diversity of Indian cuisine through the lens of the versatile curry (dal) and roti.

You will learn to identify local product that's prefect for a summer curry, learn how to make roti, a popular flatbread you will cook in an oiled pan over the stove.

You will learn how to use whole spices to make your own madras curry blends to take home. Don't fear the spice, we'll discuss how to make it palatable for your individual taste!
