Ginger!

Over the years I have gone through changes in my likes and dislikes. My parents had to deal with these fluctuations in the time scale of days. My mother reminded me today of my immense love for radish the day I first ate it. I had made my father promise that he would buy it everyday for me. The very next day I refused to eat it. I disliked it strongly for quite many years after. Now I do not particularly hate it.

I have seen my partiality for garlic grow pale. I have seen my hatred for ginger and pepper become pure love.

Here is our ginger flavoured dish of the day:

That is a curry made of one part of a cauliflower, one carrot, two onions and one yellow bell pepper. The curry was made of some ketchup, chopped ginger, chilli powder, and some ready to eat 'bhuna masala', which I had no clue how to use. Have no clue what it is either. It was just one of those random things that I picked up before coming here believing that I would have some use for it.

And of course, some ready to eat chapatis. Yes that kind of stuff is available in markets.

I love ginger in tea. Try crushed ginger boiled in water with some jaggery. It is the perfect drink for a cold day.

Trivia of the day: The more dry and old ginger is, the more concentrated its flavour becomes and the costlier it gets. Like wine?
