Episode 16: Lentils(Dal) - An Ultimate Comfort Food
There’s nothing more satisfying than hot dal! Eaten plain or stewed or with a ghee tadka on top, no Indian meal is complete without a piping hot bowl of beautiful, mushy lentils.
The ancient history of this most staple of all Indian foods is interesting, to say the least. Eaten with relish by Kings and the poor alike, even our Gods fell in love with its taste.
Join Jitendra Chouksey aka JC as he discusses the cultural and historical aspects of this most basic of Indian foods and answers a critical question - how do you fit Dal in your diet plan?
