  • How Hill Stations Gave India Its Sweet Tooth

    How Hill Stations Gave India Its Sweet Tooth

     The Real Food Podcast, Episode 30
    Jun 27 2019
    Summers in India are synonymous with spontaneous trips to the nearest hill station— a much-needed respite when the temperature of the plains and coastal regions crosses a sweltering 40º celcius. And those trips have etched long walks, energizing treks and watching the sunset in the Indian consciousness— along with a constant craving for the signature desserts of those regions. Vikram Doctor takes us on a trip this summer, not only telling us about the rich history of Mussoorie, Ooty and Lonavala—and the delicious delights their small bylanes and crowded streets offer; but we also go back in time, to our own childhoods.

  • Papad - A Circle That Completes The Square Meal

    Papad - A Circle That Completes The Square Meal

     The Real Food Podcast, Episode 29
    Jun 27 2019
    When it comes to a simple home-cooked meal, nothing competes with dal and rice paired with the crunchy contrast of papad. Vikram Doctor traces the role this humble item plays in the meals of various Indian communities. He talks to writer Saaz Aggarwal about why it is the perfect food for cooking in the arid dessert of the Sindh. Radio personality Ashish Jagtiani (Jaggu) tells us why any Sindhi who doesn’t like papad will probabaly be excommunicated from the community. We then take a trip to the South and learn the difference between the North Indian papads and South Indian papadums and appalams. You might be only slightly addicted to papads, but you can’t compete with the great teacher Raman Maharshi who wrote a bhajan using appalams to make a philosophical point! Music: Josh Woodward

    'Lal, Neelu And Pilu': The Story Of Swadeshi Sodas

     The Real Food Podcast, Episode 28
    Jun 27 2019
    Pepsi and Coke have the big billboards, but Thums Up is still one of India’s most popular brands. Vikram Doctor takes us back to 1916, when the Sodawaterwallas actually sold soda, talks to Bachi Karkaria about the soda-staples of the Parsi household, Abbas Hajoori about the fizzy Indian beverages his family has been concocting since 1923. An episode full of nostalgia via brands like Sosyo, Vimto, Ice-Cream soda and looking at a thriving ‘Indian flavoured’ soda trend that brings us everything from the grape-flavoured Bovonto of Tamil Nadu to the black-salt loaded Kashmira.
