Shoba Kousik (Indian)

Born in Kerala, Shoba Kousik studied hotel restaurant management and food production at the Institute of Hotel Management , Catering Technology and Applied Nutrition in Mumbai, then taught at the school’s Hyderabad campus. She moved to Charleston in 2006.

Favorite childhood food: Mangoes.

Current favorite food to make: Rice.

Keep in mind when cooking a Kousik recipe: Indian food has a stateside reputation for being heavily spiced, but Kousik stresses the goal is to balance spices, rather than overdo them. “One spice can easily overpower other spices if not used in moderation,” she warns.
