Join us on Tuesday September 9th from 5-6pm for a FREE BOOK TALK at Daily Operation in Easthampton to celebrate the release of an amazing cookbook! Senior Literary Agent Sally Ekus will moderate a conversation between creators Jyoti and Auyon followed by an audience Q&A.
After the book talk at Daily Op, a special Heartland Masala-inspired menu by chef Dave Schrier as well as copies of the book will be available for purchase!
Heartland Masala features 99 recipes from Indian cooking instructor Jyoti Mukharji paired with droll, illustrated vignettes by culinary historian (and Jyoti’s son!) Auyon Mukharji. A heartfelt celebration of Indian cuisine and the American immigrant experience, this mother-son collaboration is delicious, inventive, and utterly original.
Copies of Heartland Masala will be available for purchase and personalization
