Cosmoveda Ayurvedic Foods - Basic Set

This basic set includes pantry staples necessary for cooking Ayurvedic meals and includes Chyavanprash, coconut milk, floral water, sesame oil and ghee. Organic Chyavanprash contains amla fruit puree as the basis. Manufactured according to traditional Ayurvedic recipes, it covers all 6 tastes, sweet, sour, salty, tart, hot and bitter. Spices and herbs round off the flavourful spread.

Tip for serving Chyavanprash:
Dissolve 1 teaspoon in warm milk or tea and enjoy. Chyavanprash also tastes delicious as a spicy spread.

Notes on Chyavanprash:

• May contain traces of lactose and milk protein.
• Contains sesame and dairy products.

In traditional Indian Ayurvedic cuisine, spices are briefly roasted in ghee before being used. This allows their aromas to fully develop. This is what makes ghee so popular. Ghee is also used in Panchakarma cures.

Recommended uses for ghee:
For cooking, roasting, baking, stewing and steaming.

Notes on ghee:

• Ghee is a natural product. At room temperature it can be partly solid and partly liquid. During the transition from the liquid to the solid state, fat crystallisation processes can result in granular structures that are characteristic of the product and do not represent any impairment of quality.
• Pure ghee can be kept unrefrigerated for several months after opening.
• Keep away from light and heat.

Recommended use of organic floral water:
Add 1 - 2 teaspoons of floral water to each serving of food and enjoy the delicious aroma.
