Chef Tips:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Curd and water used to make chaach should be very cold.
    \n2.”Dhungar”
    \nDhungar (Smoked) is a technique of imparting a smoky flavour to a dish, when a particular dish has finished cooking, a live coal is taken and pure ghee is poured on it, when it starts to smoke this is put in the pot, the smoke from the coal must be trapped in the pot by tightly closing the lid. The smoke thus trapped for about 25 to 30 minutes, permeates the cooked food \/ beverage.
    \nOccasionally the Dhungar flavour is enhanced by first sprinkling spices on the live coal such as Cumin Seeds, Cloves or Cardamom -Green or Black on the live coal and then adding pure ghee and covering it. The spices \/ flavourings used while giving dhungar varies according to the recipe.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
