Big Flavor. Bold Spices. A New Way to Cook the Foods You Love.

By Floyd Cardoz, Marah Stets

April 5, 2016

“A fun, fresh, and inspiring collection that deserves room on any self-respecting home cook’s bookshelf.” —Publishers Weekly, starred review

In Floyd Cardoz: Flavorwalla, readers will learn how Cardoz amplifies the flavors in more than 100 recipes. The simple addition of mustard seed and lemon makes grilled asparagus a revelation; slow-cooking salmon with fennel and coriander takes it to another level. But this husband and dad has the same challenges we do when cooking for our families, for guests, and for special occasions. Here he presents the recipes he cooks at home, where even the humblest of ingredients—such as eggs, steak, and vegetables—benefit from his nuanced use of spice and simple yet impeccable techniques, making this book an indispensable resource for getting weeknight dinners on the table or for cooking a holiday meal. The standout recipes include Grilled Lamb Shanks with Salsa Verde; Shrimp with Spicy Tomato Sauce; Coconut Basmati Pilaf; Roasted Cauliflower with Candied Ginger, Pine Nuts, and Raisins; and Cardoz’s Tamarind Margaritas, of course.

Add a taste of India into traditional American meals with this heady fusion of East and West.

In this inspiring cookbook, Floyd Cardoz demystifies these ingredients and shows home cooks how to incorporate them into everyday meals, with minimal effort and spectacular results.

The first cookbook to combine the exotic eastern spices with traditional American dishes, One Spice, Two Spice is an approachable collection of recipes that show cooks how to add extra flavor and gourmet appeal to any dish. Combe coriander, fenugreek, and tamarind with roast chicken, grilled steak, and mashed potatoes. The result, a wonderful fusion of flavors that will leave them hungry for more. In the New York Times, Ruth Reichl glowingly described Floyd Cardoz’s cooking at his famed eatery, Tabla, as “American food viewed through a kaleidoscope of Indian spices.” Now, with One Spice, Two Spice everyone can bring a sensational taste of India home.
