Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Traditional Punjabi sweet lassi (Mitthi Punjabi lassi)

    • mjes on September 27, 2019

      This is a standard sweet lassi - cardamom and rose water. In short, add a wee bit of cardamom to a recipe I've used for 45 years ... and taught to my son's 3rd grade class nearly that long ago. I think this is an old-standby which deserves it's place in my repertoire.

  • Cardamom-flavoured yoghurt drink (Mathura ki lassi)

    • mjes on September 27, 2019

      This is another mild, sweet lassi flavored with cardamom, saffron and almond. A bit more complex flavor than the usual cardamom-rose water. Quite enjoyable.

  • Rajasthani-style spicy buttermilk (Rajasthani chhaas)

    • mjes on September 27, 2019

      Mint and (black) salt is a common yogurt drink combination in a number of countries. The cumin added here adds complexity but truth be known, I'm not a cumin fan. So I'd recommend this to others but stick to the mint-black salt for myself.
