In India, it is believed all people must coexist with the land and animals. Yogurt, coming from cows, is thought to be a perfect food that sustains the mind and composes the soul. Ingredients Low fat yogurt Very cold water Sugar Salt 3 ice cubes 5 cardamon pods, husked and crushed (use mortar and pestle or coffee grinder or use ground cardamon) 6 sprigs of fresh mint Equipment Blender 4 glasses spoon Instructions Put all ingredients (except mint and cardamom) in blender. Blend on high speed until ice is crushed and liquid is very frothy (about 30 seconds). Pour into 4 10-ounce glasses. Sprinkles of cardamom and mint on top are optional. This is good with spicy dishes to counteract the hot. If you pour it into one glass then into the serving glass, this Indian "milk shake' will get a foamy head.
These look like psychedelic eggs when they are done and taste good too! Ingredients 12 eggs Water Soy Sauce Black Tea Equipment Cup measurement Big pot to boil eggs Stove to boil eggs Instructions Boil eggs in 4 cups of water (be sure you don't fill the pot with eggs). When eggs are done (wait a bit for them to cool), put 2 bags of black tea and a little less than one cup of soy sauce into the pot with the eggs. Hold one egg in your hand and rap it lightly on all sides against a hard surface so that cracks appear, but the shell doesn't fall off. Return the egg to the pot. Do this with all 12 eggs. Bring to boil the sauce and eggs. Let sit for a day. Take eggs, peel (it will look cool- psychedelic), and eat. And that's all!
