Zoodles stirfried with some leftover roasted carro

Zoodles stirfried with some leftover roasted carrots and kimchi and purple cabbage. Sauced with peanut butter, rice vinegar, soy sauce and leftover tamarind date chutney. Garnished with roasted peanuts, fried shallots, scallions and cilantro! The leftovers game is 💪 here and happened to be vegan!

Focaccia’s are a great recipe to bake and are su

Focaccia’s are a great recipe to bake and are surprisingly easy if done with right techniques. We made a 75% hydration dough with 0.5 kg flour and 10 gm bloomed yeast and 10 gm each of salt and olive oil. After resting for 30 mins we gave it four folds upon itself every 30 minutes for three hours to bulk ferment. Then it went in a typical 9*13 cake pan with olive oil greasing it. Rose covered for 1 to 2 hour till bubbly. Dimpled it with wet hands without tearing the dough. We had olives on hand and fresh thyme from garden so thats what we used. And it got a wash of equal parts of olive oil and water with some sea salt. And it baked in a 425 F oven for 30 minutes.

Brushed some olive oil on it and garnished with flaky sea salt. Out it came and rested for 10 minutes.

It had a crunchy crusty base that crackled to the knofe cutting it, golden top, fruity olives, savory thyme and olive oil scented moist crumb. Perfect to eat with a glass of wine or refresh next day with a water spritz and a 10 min bake and slice it in half and add some cheese and tomato or a sliced meat of your choice and eat a sandwich.

Easy with occasional attention. If your grocery store sells premade pizza dough, use it and save even more time and effort, it wont have the wholesomeness of a bake from scratch, but it will still be quite good!

Raining a bit today🌧- perfect atmosphere to eat

Raining a bit today🌧- perfect atmosphere to eat some pani puri!

Never possible to make our own puris on weekdays. We open a packet. Then lose a few to 👶 who insists on picking the most pristinely intact puris out, break them eat a piece and come for the next. So name of the game is be as fast to eat them as you have to do at the pani puri stand. So its shot after shot of cracked puris filled with a few hot boiled black chickpeas and filled with chilled fresh-made pani puri water.

For a lot of our friends the best pani puri ever is the one they had in their city. In retrospect so was it for us. Every pani puri artisan tries to make it a success with their unique mix. Over the years have become pani puri - #paniexplorers and enjoy every kind - and make an effort to make a different one every time. It ranges from every color and every range of hot/sweet/sour pani. If not us then who 🙂

Todays pani :
Acid/Sour: dried mango soaked, pulped and strained. Amchur powder. Lime juice.
Sweet: jaggery simple syrup
Heat: green chili, yellow chili powder
Refresh: mint, cilantro
Savory: heeng, sizzling oil of cumin and fennel and home made chat masala with fresh crushed peppercorns
Salt: black, rock, sea
Cold: ice

Can you guess what city is this inspired by?

What city and pani composition should we try next week!

We were never really idli making people. When livi

We were never really idli making people. When living in india, mom would make them or you could easily find great ones round the corner at restaurants.

In Wisconsin we made them from scratch maybe once a year, or used some instant idlis from packets - they were okay. When making them from scratch, grinding them well and then fermenting the batter in the cold weather were always a challenge.

Few things have changed that we have started making idlis from scratch almost regularly.

- 👶 loves them
- the idli rice and urad dals are available since recently with reliable frequency and with excitingly good quality
- grinders have gotten super powerful making it quite easy to grind the batter instead of relying on something heavy and special
- instant pot yogurt mode is a game changer : consistent, reliable time and temperature controlled fermentation.

When steaming them we prime the pot with little bubbling water and add the idli stand and let the lid on with some steam gently escaping. Lot of recipes we have seen called for lot of steaming time about 10 minutes and more (not sure if this has the water in the pot starting from cold or with the volume and type of idli stands cooked). We have been finding with overcooking the idlis can get harder with wet surface or water clogged heavy. 7 minutes has been working for us, we take them out and let them rest steaming a bit more on residual heat and cooling them slightly also lets them pop out of the mold easily. How much time are you steaming your idlis, would love to know.

We have been making a 32/64 idli batch and using it many ways over the next couple of days. Reheating tip is to just steam them again. Freezinng has been successful too - i take them out and wash them under slow running water 😬, drain them and microwave them in a bowl gently covered with a plate till soft and steamy.
