Method
Wild Asparagus Table initiated by Saloni Malkani and Ananya Banerjee gave the group of foodies chance to explore the international cuisine of the world. Every month, a country was chosen, and the members went on to explore and research the culture and food of that place. We actually felt we were visiting the place when we enjoyed the great variety of dishes under one roof.
And then pandemic happened and our activities came to a pause. Until now.. We are back.
But this week was different. ‘Wild Asparagus Table’ was organised with a theme of #BritishPicnic potluck this time. A small limited group of ten members met at Shilpa Seth Bhambri house with their picnic basket of home made meals, recipes researched, curated and crafted. Every dish was unique and extremely delicious.
I prepared Summer Potato Salad and it was enjoyed by all. I am happy to share the recipe.
