Cook with the Cardozes!

Chef Floyd Cardoz loved to feature robust spices and seasonal ingredients in his many, many recipes. And he wanted to help make at-home Indian cooking as satisfying and delicious as anything you’d get at one of his restaurant tables. So here, we share recipes from Barkha and Floyd, spanning books, restaurants, media publications, and home creations. They’re even easier to make at home if you’ve got our FC + B&B Collaboration Masalas on hand!
