In this episode, Ankita talks about Indian breads- right from Paos served in Parsi cafes to Lucknowi royal tandoori breads like sheermal, baqarkhani, and kulche. Ankita also discusses how the art of bread making has evolved in India and how it has been adapted as the empire witnessed the charge of different foreign powers. Each of these rulers brought with them their lifestyle, culture and most importantly- food.
