Join Chef Keith Sarasin and Ragini Kashyap of Third Culture Cooks to walk through the world of spices. Every month they chat about the interesting, bizarre and sometimes sordid story of how a spice came to be. It's safe to say that cloves have caused land grabs, that counterfeit cinnamon is a thing, and that salt and pepper have done a lot more than flavour our food. See you once a month!

EP 2 More than Masala: Saffron

Ah Saffron. Flavourful, delicate, and very very fragrant saffron. From La Mancha in Spain, to Morocco, to Iran, to Afghanistan, to the Indian subcontinent - saffron is the queen spice. Join Ragini and Chef Keith as they talk about eating, understanding and contextualizing this beautiful spice. Why is it used in so many of the subcontinents' desserts? Why does Iran consume so much? Why do we talk about the chickens of the Mughal royal kitchen? Grab a cup of tea (saffron, preferably), sit back and listen to More than Masala.
