We have a ski resort in town. The sky was blue, the powder was fresh, and the crowds stayed at home to watch the game.

Mustard Trilogy 3: Nepali Cucumber Salad

Mustard Trilogy 1: Shorshe Dharosh
Mustard Trilogy 2: Vellarikka Pachadi
We had so many cucumbers last summer that we were distributing bagfuls to whoever would take them. Here’s a wonderful salad starring raw mustard oil - drizzled over the dish the same way extra virgin olive oil is used to flavour Mediterranean dishes.

In Bengali, shorshe = mustard, dharosh = okra/lady finger.
In Europe, mustard is used mainly as a condiment. In the Indian home, it is consumed almost with every meal, in one of five forms:

Ironwoman Date-Orange Cake and Lemony Molasses Tea

Breakfast
I suffer from iron deficiency anemia - very common among vegetarians and vegans. Especially so among women and children. Less iron means less hemoglobin, which translates to less oxygen in your blood and more fatigue.
There’s only so much bok choy and broccoli I can eat. How about an iron-rich cake? I really hadn’t planned out a recipe. I just dumped one thing after another into a bowl and 30 minutes later, I had a very rich, most cake. It’s gluten-free. And dairy-free. No added sweeteners. No added fat. And all the fibre is intact.
