Guides from the Tamarind & Co. kitchen: how the food is cooked, how to order it well, what catering actually costs across Central New Jersey, and what a table here looks like for neighbors in the towns around Cranbury.
Some of these are about the cooking. What makes a dum biryani, and why sealing it changes the rice. What happens inside a clay tandoor, and why breads and kebabs taste different coming off its wall. How Indo-Chinese food came to be, and why it belongs on an Indian menu. How to read spice, which is about flavour rather than heat alone, and how to eat well as a vegetarian or vegan here.
Others are practical. A dish-by-dish guide to ordering our menu, including what a full table for four looks like. Guides to wedding catering, pooja catering, corporate catering and graduation parties, with tray sizes and pricing. And a lunch guide for anyone with an hour and a drive back to the office.
The rest are for neighbors — Monroe Township, South Brunswick, Plainsboro, East and West Windsor, Manalapan and Freehold, Princeton, Jamesburg, Hightstown and Robbinsville — on what the drive is like and what to order when you get here.
