Why You Need To Know about Jaggery: Benefits of Fermented Foods and Beverages

June 27, 2013 by Sandeep Agarwal 6 Comments

Traditional diets around the world have always called for the culturing or fermenting of certain foods and beverages. Although modern food processing is focused on quick, convenient, packaged, and microwavable “foods,” we are in the midst of a modern-day food revolution as the consumer demand for fresher and healthier food choices grows. In recent years, […]

Sattvic, Rajasic, Tamasic – The Characteristics of Nature as it Relates to Food

July 24, 2025 by Alana Sugar, Certified Nutritionist Leave a Comment

From the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda comes a deep understanding of food that reaches far beyond our knowledge of proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, minerals and trace elements. Food is more than fuel for our body – it is a vital force that shapes our thoughts, emotions, and spiritual awareness. At the heart of this understanding […]

Chipotle Masala Rice with Tamarind

July 19, 2025 by Alana Sugar, Certified Nutritionist Leave a Comment

This delicious basmati rice dish is seasoned with a unique masala made from dry-roasted smoked Chipotle Morita chili peppers. Tamarind, jaggery, ghee, and roasted peanuts round out the flavors. Serve this as a side dish, or as a main dish with added vegetables and protein of choice. You can reduce the heat (spiciness) of the masala by halving the chili pepper and removing the seeds before pan-toasting.

Tamarind-Ginger Grilled Chicken Thighs

July 17, 2025 by Alana Sugar, Certified Nutritionist Leave a Comment

Tangy and slightly sweet, these finger-licking chicken thighs are so easy you’ll go back to them time and again. For the marinade, we’ve used A Date with Tamarind Chutney for a little sweetness, but feel to use straight tamarind paste if you prefer a stronger tart flavor. The tamarind-ginger marinade is also great with tofu, summer squash, onions, peppers, and sweet potato.

Simple, Nourishing Warm Milk Kefir

December 2, 2024 by Alana Sugar, Certified Nutritionist Leave a Comment

This is an ideal fall/winter beverage made with warmed milk, cultured kefir, Ayurvedic jaggery and a pinch of nutmeg. Kefir is a high probiotic beverage that must not be heated in order to preserve its beneficial bacteria. However, when blended with warmed milk, it becomes a delicious, nourishing, warm beverage just right for balancing VATA dosha which is naturally elevated in cool/cold, dry, fall and winter conditions.

Comfort Custard

April 18, 2024 by Alana Sugar, Certified Nutritionist 1 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 a teaspoon 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.
