Over 140 recipes from the chef of New York City’s world-famous Tabla restaurant. Cardoz is truly one of the world’s most exciting innovators. This collection bridges the gap between the Western palate and the wonderful taste memories that have remained so pungent from the food of his childhood in Bombay and Goa. It is a book for home cooks who wish to enjoy the flavours of India but who might have been intimidated by the unusual and numerous spices required. Cardoz renders these spices user-friendly, and shows you how to seamlessly integrate these new flavours into your cooking through his tried and tested techniques – with stunning results.

Floyd Cardoz was born in Bombay and after culinary school in India and Switzerland moved to New York. In 1997, together with Danny Meyer, he created Tabla, which was given three stars by the New York Times shortly after it opened. One Spice, Two Spice is his first book.
