Indian chef, cooking instructor and author Bal Arneson joins me with her new book “Everyday Indian – 100 Fast, Fresh, and Healthy Recipes.”

This new cookbook introduces a modern concept in Indian cuisine — dishes that can be prepared in less than 25 minutes.  The healthy recipes in Everyday Indian prove that Indian cooking doesn’t have to be complicated. Bal Arneson provides recipes that use everyday spices and common techniques to create simple, mouthwatering dishes that even the novice cook can whip up at home.

Arneson also offers low-fat options for the health conscious without ever compromising taste. Indian food is simple, quick and delicious!

Then it’s all about the Sonoma Wine Country Weekend - Sept 4 – 6th, with special guests Honore Comfort, Executive Director – Sonoma County Vintners.

And Kate MacMurry (Daughter of Fred MacMurray…”My Three Sons ) from the MacMurry Ranch where next Saturday’s main event takes place.  Kate will also be sharing her thoughts on the Wine of the Week.

Wine of the Week:  
2008 MacMurry  Ranch Pinot Gris

MacMurray Ranch Sonoma Coast Pinot Gris possesses an expressive fruit-forward character, exhibiting rich aromas of fig and white peach. The bright aromas and complex varietal characters of citrus and elements of spice add both weight and interest to the wine. The flavors of peach, spicy pear and citrus are melded together in a rich core, resulting in a round mouthfeel which complements its crisp, clean finish. 
A great wine for anytime and perfect with Indian food!
