About

Hetal Vasavada grew up in New Jersey in a family of wonderful Gujarati home cooks who raised her on chai, cardamom-spiced shortbreads, and sweet puddings. After a cross-country move, Vasavada started to recreate the flavors of her childhood—this time in her own style—which eventually landed her a spot on Gordon Ramsay’s MasterChef, where she was the show’s first Hindu vegetarian contestant. Vasavada is the author of Milk and Cardamom; has a successful Instagram channel (@milkandcardamom), blog (milkandcardamom. com) and online pop-up bakery; and is a contributor at Bon AppétitFood & WineCherry BombeEaterFood52, and more. Hetal is based in the San Francisco Bay Area.
