Naan Curry with Sadaf and Archit
Arts:Food
In this episode, our 2Gs, the Gourmands & Geeks, Sadaf and Archit, take you on the sweet and sour tour of Tamarind. They are covering:
-The Etymology of Tamarind
-Is this fruit from India or Africa?
-What does Ayurveda say about Tamarind?
-How do our folklores, including the Ramayana, mention Tamarind?-
-Why did our parents ask us not to sleep or go near the Tamarind tree in the evening?
-Some of the top dishes made with Tamarind and its cousins - Kokum and Malabar Tamarind
So sit back, relax, make some Imli chutney or Tamarind rice while our 2Gs unravel the mystery behind the very common souring agent Indians use.
