Vision of Palate
Workshop for the Visually Disabled

This award winning, ground breaking workshop
developed by Chef Khanna and taught all over the United States is based upon his research on The Power of Palate, the benefit of taste on people with visual disabilities. During these workshops the students will start with a tasting of a single spice or herb at a time and define it in the words like "sweet, savory, hot, spicy, refreshing, cold, soothing, woody, aromatic, licorice, fragrant etc" . After the first session they will be served rock salt flavored lemonade to cleanse the palate.

The second session begins with a little more complex flavors or blends of spices. Again, the students will have to define the flavors based on aromas, textures and flavors. This will make them understand that they are blessed to distinguish with such sensitive details. I will also be highlighting about the sensitive points of the palate. After this course they will be served yogurt sorbet with grapefruit soup to cleanse the palate again.

With a few minutes of break they will be served small tasting to desserts, which will be all truffles with different fillings like orange rinds, mangoes, coconut, coffee, lime and cardamom.

All money raised during these workshops will be donated to "Andrew Heiskell Braille and Talking Book Library"  and  to cure young children with visual disabilities in India by Save the Children Organization.
