Gorgeous Food and Drink: Kumud Gandhi, A Cupboard Full of Spices with Donna Freed

Kumud Gandhi, the Spice Queen, wants to introduce us to the alchemy of food and balanced spicing. Careful spicing goes beyond seasoning, it is medicinal, nutritional and preservative as well as. She took a career break from the Bank of England to have her children and fell into food science and from food science she fell into catering…and from there started a cookery school and now has written a book. Perhaps it is the alchemy of genes that has brought her to her passion: chemists on her mother's side and spice merchants from her fathers!
