A kitchen, a memory, a recipe.
Saudamini was born in Allahabad and grew up between ten cities — Lucknow, Kanpur, Udaipur, Jaipur, Jamshedpur, Chandigarh, Jalandhar, Delhi, Noida, and now Bengaluru. Each city left a fingerprint on her palate. Awadhi nuance from Lucknow. Marwari sweetness from Udaipur. Punjab muscle from Jalandhar. The metropolitan polish of Delhi. This isn't biography — it's the supply chain of recipes the brand draws from.
What started as a concern soon became a conscious shift. I went back to my roots — to the traditional recipes lovingly made by my mother and grandmother. Recipes that were simple, nourishing, and made with intention.
Rasoi Tales was born from a household problem. Both Saudamini and her husband live with diabetes. She began noticing similar patterns in her daughter. The family loved snacking and sharing food — and giving that up felt like giving up a way of being together.
Rather than abandon the joy of food, she chose to redesign it. She returned to recipes from her mother and grandmother, and adapted them for modern dietary realities. What began as a kitchen experiment for her own family became a brand built around a clear premise: families should not have to choose between joy and health.
