                               Sub-continental Popcorn



 

                                Simple and perfect for a relaxing movie night at home. Try it today!


(Submitted by Brian Solem)

 

1. Place 2 tablespoons of ghee (instead of oil, to drum up that sensuously sub-continental flavor) in a large, heavy pot with a see-through lid.

2. Place over medium heat on your stove-top.

3. While the ghee melts, add four kernels of popcorn (preferably organic) and cover the pot.

4. When those test kernels pop (it may take 5-7 minutes), remove the pot from the heat, drop 2/3 cup of popcorn kernels in the pot, and swirl around to evenly coat the kernels in the hot ghee. Return to the heat and cover.

5. The kernels will begin popping with increasing rapidity. Swirl the pot every once in awhile to ensure the seeds stay on the bottom and the popped kernels stay on top.

6. When the popping slows considerably, remove the pot from the heat and pour in up to 1 tablespoon of eSutras Curry Chili Salt. Cover and shake/swirl pot dramatically to coat as many kernels as possible.

7. Pour popcorn into a bowl and enjoy!

Partake of the beautiful Lotus to inspire your mind. It sedates and seduces..

By
Lotus - Its God's favorite flower...Its mysticism may also be linked to the  mild narcotic or sedative effects   from flowers that are eaten, smoked or steeped in wine and drank. Also called the world's most beautiful flower, the lotus is the most sacred, and it seems there never was a time when man did not adore it.....Of all the myriad buds and blooms, the most revered and esteemed--by God and man--is the magnificent lotus in the sub continent and all across China and Japan. According to Buddhism and Hinduism, within each human inhabiting the earth is the spirit of the sacred lotus. It represents eternity, purity and divinity and is widely used as a symbol of life, fertility, ever-renewing youth and to describe feminine beauty, especially the eyes. One of the most common metaphysical analogies compares the lotus' perennial rise to faultless beauty from a miry environment to the evolution of man's consciousness--from instinctive impulses to spiritual liberation.
