Indian Spring Celebration

In celebration of the advent of spring, this menu incorporates the theme of the Festival of Holi, or the Festival of Color. Originally a festival to celebrate fertility and the harvest, today Holi is an excuse for Northern Indians to shed inhibitions for a day of spring fever and fun.

No other culture has mastered the art of using herbs, spices, and aromatics like the Indians. Learn about their various masalas, or spice blends, as you enjoy the intoxicating perfumes and complex flavors in these dishes.
