The family recipes spicing up Dunedin life

From Nine To Noon, 11:30 am on 26 May 2025

If you've been down to Otago Farmers Market on a Saturday morning, it's likely you'll have seen Danielle Culling. For the past four years, rain or shine, Danielle has been a regular feature at the market - selling pickles and curry pastes through her business Tartan Sari. The Tartan Sari story goes back decades. 30 years ago, Danielle's parents Louisa and Ron set up a pickle business in London - making family recipes and selling to Indian supermarkets. The recipes arrived in London via Goa, Kenya and Scotland - before decades later, arriving in Dunedin. Tartan Sari business owner Danielle Culling joins Kathryn.
