Indian Spice Uncovered this Saturday
As I inhaled a plate of paneer makhani at Uru-Swati last weekend, I wondered if I could ever make such a heavenly dish in my own kitchen. I could follow a recipe, but because I'm more Elisabeth Hasselback than Joy Behar when it comes to cooking, the "Passage to India" lecture that the Culinary HIstorians of Chicago will be holding tomorrow at the Ranjana Bhargava Indian Cooking School is right up my alley. Cookbook author and chef Suvir Saran will talk about how to use, cook with, and store spices common to Indian cuisine, and will be signing copies of his many books (American Masala, Indian Home Cooking) afterward. Lecture admission is $3-$5; event runs 10am-noon at 6730 South Euclid. RSVP required. Also, ChicaGourmets will be offering a $39 post-lecture luncheon at the school.
