@Mirch

Anybody uses heeng , hing , Asafoetida ?
I love the distinct aroma it gives to daal when used with bhagar/tarka.

If I can crush/powder it, I wlil try it.

@Niksik

Depends.

For heavier daals, I use onions *, zeera, green chillies.
For lighter daals, I usually stick to garlic and zeera, and a tsp of deghi mirch for the red color.

oo. which daals are heavy..and which are lighter?

@queer

depends on what kind of daal dish it is. anything from panch-phoran to curry leaves.

What kind of daals are there?

So I guess maybe it should be a seperate thread (if there isn’t one already)…about the different kind of daals/daal dishes out there..

I usually cook mash ki daal, or chanay ki daal, and with rice, I’ll make a mix of masoor and moong daal…

Last night I cooked sabat moong+masoor+chana daal and it came out so yum.*

**my bhabhi uses it sometimes depending on the recipe of the veggie/daal. it’s a good anti gas production but it got a horrible pungent smell. i remember my dad used to have it in a very minuscule amount and i had to break it into small-small pieces. my fingers would smell horrible for hours. **

Yes!

Re: Bhagaar / Tarka …

The bhagar we use is depends on the daal. It’s different for each.
