  • Know Your Dals & Pulses
    www.tarladalal.com Dear friends, gGone are the days when dals and pulses were considered a poor man's diet! Today, they have become not just trendy but core to Indian cuisine. Much of the newfound excitement with regard to vegetarian cooking is fuelled by the imaginative use of dals and pulses. The simple, highly-nutritious and comforting dal-chawal (lentil-rice) combination is an inseparable part of any traditional, Indian vegetarian meal. The protein-packed super-foods, dals and pulses, have been, and continue to be, a part of our culinary tradition across the length and breadth of the country since time immemorial. But we take these wholesome ingredients so much for granted that very few of us would actually be able to differentiate toovar dal from arhar and red chana from kala chana! Well, they are the same, aren't they? We look only at the end-product and think that all dals and pulses look and taste similar; what is there in it! But the surprising fact is that in the raw form dals and pulses come in different colours, flavours and with varying degrees of nutrient-content. And it is not at all difficult to understand them; all it takes is a little time and inclination. Recently, on the 'Ask Tarla' section of our website, I received a query from an 18-year-old who was just foraying into the art of cooking. She wanted to cook moong dal, but was faced with three different versions of yellow-coloured dal toovar, chana and moong and she wanted to know which of these was moong and how to differentiate it from the other two dals.

Professor, Maharashtra State Institute of Hotel Management, Pune. Abstract The main purpose of this paper is to find food preferences amongst different age groups, gender, region with respect to fast food, brands, home-made and hotels. As the health of many people is deteriorating by consuming fast food on streets and packed food. Many dieticians are expressing concern over such consumption leading to chronic diseases. We are aware of this fact that young couples are not finding time to eat home-made food.Old people are aware of warning of dieticians not to use fast food for health reasons. Keywords- Food habits, Fast food, Home food, Hotel, Region, Age groups, Preferences affordable. Introduction The human diet plays an important role for good health and long life. India is a country with diverse culture, habits, customs, religious dogma, communal and linguistic differences and being a country dominant to house more critical diseases like diabetes, heart disease, hypertension, TB, cancer, AIDS, leprosy and many ailments. Yoga, meditation, exercise, sound sleep and relaxation are other components responsible to enjoy good health and long life. Good diet is a blend of carbohydrates, proteins, vitamins, minerals, fats and water. But the human tongue does not accept the corrects proportion of food elements mentioned here and sometimes fats increases to harm our body. We say three enemies of mankind are SALT, SUGAR, AND MAIDA three dangerous whites which are found in large proportion in FAST FOOD to harm our body function.We have invited diseases due to lack of good diet, lack of exercise, and less sleep.

  • The Story of Sambhar by Padmini Natarajan — Archive.Today
    archive.today The Story of Sambhar by Padmini Natarajan 4 min read • original South Indian food, people and culture are inexorably linked to a ubiquitous dish as in idli and sambhar, sambhar and rice and so on. Each state in the South prepares it with a typical variation, adapted to its taste and environment. The genesis of this dish has an interesting tale linked to it. The Marathas were ruling Tanjore. Sambhoji was a great cook (the male clan members to note) and very fond of his amti with a handful of the tart kokum thrown in. In a particular season the kokum that was imported from the Maratha homeland did not reach the bare larder of the king's kitchen. Sambhoji was cooking and the minions were shivering in their dhothis to tell him that his favourite dish could not be made that day. A smart Vidushak, who had been elected sous chef for the day, decided to solve the problem. He whispered in the king's ears that the locals used very little tamarind pulp to gain a better sourness to the curry and that Sambhoji should experiment with this variation. Voila, the dish with the tuvar dal, vegetables, spices and the tamarind pulp was cooked and served by the king to his coterie. The court declared the dish an outstanding preparation (they had no choice with the king as Chef ) and thus was born sambhoji's amti that in time became sambhar. The divide between the Tanjorians and the Pattars of Kerala was not more sharply delienated than in the making of the staple sambhar.
