Saffron Shrikhand: Saffron Flavored Creamy Yogurt

  Hello all and a very Happy New Year! We wish for the best and hope this year brings in the best for everyone. I have been gone for a while: away from technology, and all social media, spending the most precious time with my family for the past few weeks. It was indeed the long desired, required and a replenishing break for all of us. We are going to be missing one another now. But life has to move ahead, right? I hope all of you have had… […]

Edamame & Garlic Spread

    When you are in mood for noshing, consider slathering this nutty and lemony spread over a good, rustic bread. Rye bread, sourdough bread – any kind will do. This is my favorite way to snack.       I do not watch Super Bowl. I do not understand the game and never tried to. I do not wait for the half time performances nor analyze advertisements and scores. I do not talk about interceptions or the best and the… […]
