In this flavorful episode of Ingredient Insiders, hosts John and Andrea from Chef’s Warehouse sit down with Chef Maneet Chauhan, Food Network star, two-time Tournament of Champions winner, and owner of Chauhan Ale and Masala House in Nashville.
Maneet shares her deep love for chaat masala, her journey from India to the U.S., and what it’s like to both compete and judge on shows like Iron Chef and Chopped. She also opens up about finding a home—and culinary inspiration—in Nashville, and the importance of bringing bold, Indian flavors to American kitchens.
In the second half of the episode, John and Andrea chat with Sana Javeri Kadri, Founder and CEO of Diaspora Spice Co., a company on a mission to radically change the spice trade. Sana discusses her passion for chaat masala, why she started Diaspora to bring India’s heritage spices to chefs and home cooks in the U.S., and how the company is leading the way with sustainable, regenerative sourcing practices.
An inspiring, spice-packed conversation that’s equal parts heart, heat, and heritage.
