About this Podcast: In this entertaining and eye-opening podcast of Gunjan Talks, I sit down with Krish Ashok, popularly known as Masala Lab, a techie, musician, and author of the bestselling book “Masala Lab: The Science of Indian Cooking.” Ashok is famous for breaking down the science behind Indian cooking in the most fun and simple way possible, while also debunking food myths and calling out misinformation spread by so-called health “gurus.” From raw vs cooked food, MSG, ghee, mustard oil, microwaves, cookware myths, prebiotics & probiotics to why fear-mongering spreads faster than facts, this podcast will completely change the way you look at everyday food. Key Topics Covered In This Podcat: ✅ Science behind Indian cooking & everyday myths ✅ Raw vs cooked food: Which is better? ✅ Microwaves, steaming & reheating, safe or harmful? ✅ MSG, Maggi & the real truth about glutamic acid ✅ Aluminium foil, cast iron, mustard oil, myths busted ✅ Prebiotics, probiotics, and food preservation tips ✅ How to make food tasty & nutritious without gimmicks ✅ Rajasic, Sattvic, and Tamasic foods explained This podcast is not just about food - it’s about science, culture, and eating smarter without fear.
