Nanda soaks up the sun in her shimmering orange sari that she purchased on one of her visits home to India. In her lap she holds a Masala Dabba. The circular canister is filled with small cups containing her family’s favourite spices. The Masala Dabba is a mainstay in every Indian kitchen and are often passed down through generations.
