#Repost • @blending_flavours
Because I am experimenting with ancient grains, I didn’t make rice/curry/khari for lunch today. Instead it’s millets but in salad form.
Lunch today has blue buns made with the addition of sorghum/jowar flour to all-purpose flour. Although the top browned more than I would have liked, the inner portion was soft and incredibly blue.
For the salad, I used barnyard millet. This was soaked overnight and cooked with well-seasoned chicken stock. So there wasn’t much of a dressing as such except for a glug of olive oil. I added diced roasted beet and cucumber. Some coriander leaves and winged bean flowers were used for garnishing.
My winged bean vine has started to bloom but I plucked only one flower. I used a couple of fallen blooms. These blooms have a lovely sweet taste and make a great addition to salads.
The last dish is a white bean dip. I used the recipe from @loveandlemons
Throughout summer I picked my dying/drying blue butterfly pea blooms every single day. I am so glad I still have some left. In case I want to paint my food blue. 😊

Thanks to @tillage.in for the ancient grains. More experiments to follow.

A glimpse of #Dimasa cuisine .
With due respect ,im showcasing few dishes I prepared for @rongaligoodvibes Ethnic food exhibition . Dimasa cuisine is extensive and has an identity of its own .
Dimasa cuisine .
The word Dimasa means "Son of the big river" (Dima-river, sa-sons), the river being the mighty Brahmaputra.
The Dimasa people are an ethnolinguistic community presently inhabiting Assam and Nagaland states in Northeastern India. Dimasas do jhum cultivation .
Busu Dimasa is their major festival .
Their cuisine is very unique ,so also the cooking methods . "khari "dish refers to any stew cooked with seasonal vegetables ,alkaline extract and naplam ( fermented fish ).Smoked meat or fish is added to enhance flavour . "mudru " is boiled stew with vegetables ,herbs etc . Various chutneys are prepared and in most of them Naphlam is added .
Judima is the traditional rice wine brews by Dimasas which has a beautiful flavour .

1) Maiju ( Glutinious rice )

2 ) Daono Hon ( Country chicken cooked with riceflour . Hon means rice )

3) Mudru ( A stew cooked with taro tubers ,cherry tomatoes , tora gaaz , Meshagi leaves )

4) Khari or an alkaline dish cooked with ash gourd n traditionally smoked pork , mustard greens and Naphlam

5) Mojokhamau naplam ( Fermented fish chutney with heart leaves or Mosundari )

6) Laikonthai naphlam morsai ( Chutney of banana flower , fire roasted chillies n fermented fish )

7) Panthao khari ( Another alkaline dish cooked with eggplants ,bitter egg plants , dry fish ,fermented fish and alkaline extract )

8) Judima ,traditional rice wine.

I would like to thank @uttambathari da ,Kunj ba for helping me out .
My respect and gratitude to Kanak baidew @blending_flavours, who has inspired me ,attracted me to this beautiful cuisine .
