Turmeric Nation: A Passage through India’s Tastes
By Shylashri Shankar (New Delhi: Speaking Tiger Books, 2020)

Date and Time:
12 October, 2020 at 4.00 pm – 5 pm
 
About the Webinar :
What exactly is “Indian” food? Can it be classified by region, or religion, or ritual?
What are the culinary commonalities across the Indian subcontinent?
Do we Indians have a sense of collective self when it comes to cuisine?
Or is the pluralism in our food habits and choices the only identity we have ever needed?

Turmeric Nation is an ambitious and insightful project which answers these questions.
It offers a layered and revealing portrait of India, as a society and a nation, through its enduring relationship with food.
