Today we baked a cake in the bread machine that is
here in Ashram. It is still too warm to eat it but
we will enjoy it soon. We are anyway all enjoying
the food here very much. When we are traveling we
are also cooking Indian food but it can never really
taste like here because you do not get the same
vegetables, fruits and herbs. And if you get it
there it will taste completely different than here.
In a spice box we always carry Indian spices with us
on our journeys. Our food never has any garlic,
onion, chili, egg or meat. As vegetarians, grown up
in Vrindavan where you cannot find meat and eggs in
any dish, we never ate meat or egg. I also never ate
onion or garlic because it is not yogic food. It
changes the energy in the body. Additionally I do
not like the smell. My parents also never ate it.
Chili however is a different story. My mother and my
grandmother both love chili. I just do not like it
because you cannot taste anything else when your
tongue is burning from that. And food can be very
nice with other spices. So whenever you come to
visit Ashram you will taste how delicious food can
be when it is cooked in this way with much love.
