MASQUELAB X GOYA is a series where we bring home chefs from around India to showcase their work and culinary heritage within the dialogue of food and culture.
Saee Koranne-Khandekar, author and culinary consultant, cooks an experimental interpretation of Maharashtrian cuisine over 7 courses. “The format is in keeping with a Masque tasting menu, but the ingredients and cooking techniques are absolutely true to tradition.” Maharashtrian food has never made it into mainstream representations of Indian cuisine. Through her books and pop-ups, Saee hopes to restart the conversation (and curiosity) around her mother cuisine. “Even when we entertain at home, the vast majority of us hardly ever think of the rarer dishes from regional repertoire, and so, many ingredients and cooking techniques are slipping out of our collective food memories.”
