We have been long time fans of Diaspora Spice Co. products for their work empowering regenerative South Asian spice farms and making the highest potency, freshest spices available to home cooks.

That connection to their spice farm partners is evident in their beautifully designed book. It includes guides on how to build pantry staples such as spice blends, chutneys and pickles, and traditional Indian and Sri Lankan snacks.

Co-authors Sana and Asha will sample their Gongura Pappu Recipe and demonstrate making the tadka, a fundamental Indian cooking technique where spices, herbs, and aromatics are bloomed in hot oil to release fat-soluble flavors.ย We couldnโ€™t be more thrilled to spotlight this q***r and woman-of-color owned local business! Please join us on Friday May 29th from 6-7:30 pm. The link for sign up is in the bio!
