This months LISTEN Session features Snacky Tunes. Since 2009, the podcast has explored the intersections of music and food, sparking innovative collaborations between chefs and musicians. With a new book celebrating the program out from Phaidon this October, co-hosts Darin and Greg Bresnitz talk to frieze publisher Rebecca Ann Siegel about what our listening (and eating) habits tell us about ourselves – featuring a special kitchen playlist by chef and owner of London’s Darjeeling Express, Asma Khan.

She says; These songs are on my playlist when it’s late at night, after dinner. I like to make the dough for the paratha or chapati the night before it is cooked and served. It’s so much easier to roll if the dough has rested for a bit. So this is the music I play when I knead the dough. Often, I wash and soak red kidney beans, black chickpeas, or lentils before sleeping. I do not wash up. I soak the pots in hot water and detergent. I guess the playlist reflects my roots: I am a Londoner with a distinct Indian accent. I am from both the East and the West, and the playlist reflects that.
