Episode Synopsis

Our first episode! The history of spices is complex and loaded with stories, folklore, warfare and cultural connections. Spices have the potential to flavour, to heal, to become tea or food - in olden times they were even used as salary! It's safe to say they've been a pretty important part of human history. Join Chef Keith Sarasin and Ragini Kashyap of Third Culture Cooks, as they explore spices of the Indian subcontinent. This month, we chat about a brief history of the spice trade. Grab a cup of tea, tune in, and join us?
