Healing Recipes Bring Back the Roots
Food requirements vary from person to person. Food at regular intervals is quite important. Skipping food is not a good practice. There’s a proper format for each individual at Kairali. Food is like herbal medicines that heal body scientifically. Removing toxins from the body are important. If you don’t throw them out of your body in time you tend to cause various diseases. What to cook, when to cook, what to eat in which season, what not to eat in which season is the prime focus of Kairali healing recipes. Within 14 days stay at Kairali you can learn this art through the wisdom and knowledge. Chef Manjit Singh Gill feels happy to see such meaningful initiatives. It is important to learn the philosophy and science of cooking. The most important fundamental truth of food is that it should give you goodness. If it doesn’t, it is of no use to the body and mind. A man is born by food and subsequently, nourishes with the food. It is only the Good that keeps your intellect and nourishes your body. Food is a serious concept to understand. Indulgence in food has to be meaningful. Food converts into the blood in the body. A lot of research is happening around the globe and a lot of theories are emerging. Out food becomes healthiest if we understand the philosophy and fundamentals. That is where Healing Recipes come into the picture.Healing Recipes is all about Goodness of Food
Good food with the reasons are fundamentals of Ayurveda. Cook food with some knowledge. Good food is always very close to nature. Food should always be fresh. Refrigeration of processing of food is something going against nature. That way you are increasing the life of food unnaturally. If food is closer to nature, out body knows how to get the best out of it. The earlier concept of tasty and nice looking food is changing to food safety, digestive, and good absorbing food. Good food helps people live longer and healthy. For instance, if you add salt in curd, it spoils its goodness. As a matter of fact, serving a bowl of curd is different from adding curd to curries or marinating food with curd. While the former is for health the latter two are for adding taste to curries and food. Cooking food should be good for goodness. Knowing about six tastes and balancing them well is important. In fact, six climates are also like six tastes. Rest is to eat seasonal food. Making people aware of the right things to make then adopt the right practice in life. Understanding food for your own sake is important.Healing Recipes Debuts on July 3 at Kairali, Palakkad, Kerala
