Krish Ashok is a techie, writer and musician. He joins Jayashree Arunachalam of Newslaundry to talk about his book Masala Lab: The Science of #IndianCooking.

Bemoaning the lack of “good writing” on sub-cuisines and subaltern #cuisines, Krish notes that much of such writing is #savarna. “I would like to see more writing of tribal communities in the North East and in Chhattisgarh, what they eat, what the tradition of their cuisine is.”

Krish and Jayashree also discuss how #TarlaDalal changed food writing, the methods of cooking and why pressure cookers are actually flawed.
