Back in 2019 when I visited @tajgreencoveresort in Back in 2019 when I visited @tajgreencoveresort in Kovalam, Kerala, I stumbled upon this lip-smacking herbal infusion called Vishuddhi Chaiat the hotel's signature Jiva Spa. The 'chai' tasted like a zingy warm lemonade. One sip and we knew we would like to have another cup! Vishuddhi refers to the throat chakra in Indian esoteric tradition, tantra (that I know nothing about, so don't ask me more!) and according to the therapists, the chai helps in breathing more deeply during the treatment. Maybe it did help us breathe more deeply or maybe it didn't, but it was calming, refreshing and delicious! We didn't mind another cup after our respective treatments. After some prodding, the staff told us about the ingredients and we've enjoyed it ever since at home, customising it to our liking with additions like ginger and black pepper. My version of this caffeine free Spa 'Chai' is now live on the blog. Make your own version of Vishuddhi Chai at home. Find the recipe link in our bio and save this post for later when you are looking for something refreshing to drink during the cold weather. #kitchenpostcards #homemade #spa #tea #herbaltea #herbalinfusion #caffeinefree #lemonade #calming #refreshing #greentea #lemon #whenlifegivesyoulemons #notsponsored #recipe #easyrecipe #beverage #foodblog #mydubai #dubai #tusconfoodie #vishuddichai #selfcare #chai #tajgreencoveresort #vacation #travel #kerala

New year and lots to savour this season! Winters New year and lots to savour this season! Winters in Punjab are synonymous with Sarson da Saag and Makki di Roti. A mix of seasonal greens - mustard leaves, spinach, baathu (goosefoot/lamb’s quarters) and methi (fenugreek) cooked together with a simple #tadka/tempering with lots of ginger. It presents the palette with complex flavours complemented with the sweetness of #corn in makki di roti. Served with a dollop of ghee/butter, a few bite sized pieces of gur, fresh salad - #seasonal #radish and #carrots, and maybe an achar, like the paaniwali mirch here, make it a meal to savour and then sleep off under the mellow winter sun. If you can’t sleep it off, wash it down with a cup of hot #adrakwalichai (find it on #kitchenpostcards too!) Follow this simple and easy #familyrecipe to get your #saag fix!

Wrote about an expat’s Thanksgiving, which is al Wrote about an expat’s Thanksgiving, which is almost always a Friendsgiving. It’s on the blog now. Link in bio 🔗 The act of giving #thanks is integral to #harvest festivals across the world. That same sentiment connects Thanksgiving to those festivals. But it differs in other ways. I was mystified by this national holiday until we began building our own chosen family of friends. Since then thanksgiving has been just as keenly awaited as #diwali used to be back home. The controversy though is about the very premise of the holiday. The lands we live on were once owned by native tribes. While being thankful is wonderful for the soul, there is much that we need to learn. Living in #tucson a city recognized as a city of Gastronomy by #unesco on the land of the Tohono O’odham nation, I’ve decided to learn and engage with the tribes whose lands we live on. Hoping 2022 will be safer with the pandemic subsiding and I can venture out more. For this week, I am #thankful that we have made it so far. That we are #vaccinated and able to meet #friends , finally, though in small numbers. We’ll be cooking and eating a lot this entire week! If you need some inspiration for your table, click the link in bio and explore the blog. While there read about our first few Friendsgivings ☺️ Wish you a happy #thanksgiving 🍁 - @kanikasamra #kitchenpostcards #blogger #tohonooodham #indianfood #eat #cooking #food52 #nytcooking #epicurious #saveurmag #bonappetit #nativeamerican #culture #learn #festival #holiday #family #friendsgiving
