In this episode, our host, Johnny Myers ’19, sits down with cookbook author and journalist, Anupy Singla ’90. 

Anupy and discuss the process of writing a cookbook and the inspiration behind the recipes, as well as Anupy’s time at Ursinus and how her liberal arts education was vital in leading her on to the path she is on today!

Born in India and raised outside of Philadelphia, Anupy grew up visiting her grandfather’s childhood village in the heart of Punjab. She first learned to cook traditional, spicy Punjabi-style food from him. This passion compelled her to leave daily reporting to teach her young girls how to appreciate good Indian food and blog about it on www.indianasapplepie.com - now also the name of her company.

Anupy has also written for the Chicago Tribune, the Wall Street Journal, and other newspapers and magazines. Her newest book, Instant Pot Indian, came out at the end of April.
