Comfort Custard

Leave a comment

This egg custard is simple and nourishing comfort food. It’s ideal for anyone with a sensitive stomach or compromised digestion. It can be enjoyed warm or chilled. For Ayurveda enthusiasts, when taken warm, it’s calming to Vata. When chilled or cool, it eases Pitta, and when just a tsp of ghee along with a bit of ginger and cardamom are added, it becomes more balancing to Kapha. For a delicious twist, turn this into maple custard by using maple sugar, or into caramel-style custard by using jaggery, in place of raw sugar.

All-Around Magical Moon-Milk

Leave a comment

Moon Milk is a soothing, delicious milk-based hot beverage that has its roots in the healing tradition of Ayurveda. It’s useful for deep relaxation and sound rest, and is often taken at bed-time to calm stress and anxiety. In this recipe, we use a combination of spices with Ashwagandha Root Powder and Turmeric SuperGhee, both of which are used in Ayurveda to promote excellent health. Feel free to adjust the spices as desired, and, although not necessary, you can whip the moon milk with a handheld or bullet-style blender until frothy before serving.

Wild-Blueberry Spelt Pancakes

These pancakes are made with 100% organic spelt flour. The recipe serves one person but can easily to doubled, tripled, etc. We used organic, wild frozen, blueberries that were thawed, but you can use them straight from the freezer. As a garnish, we’ve added frozen, thawed organic sweet, pitted cherries along with a spreading of sesame tahini and some maple syrup.
