Poor digestion means your gut health is compromised. Unless you take action to include more probiotics in your diet, your health could deteriorate faster. remember, a poor gut is the trigger for a compromised immune system and a series of diseases. In order to strengthen your gut and boost metabolism and digestion, let's learn to include more probiotics in our diet. The best thing is you can make natural pre and probiotics at home. For example, ragi ambali, which is different from what you have been watching on the Internet. In my MIL's village, they make ambali this way.

Let's get started by soaking 2 tbsp ragi atta in water for 30 minutes. It's time to boil 2-3 times the amount of water. when the water starts bubbling, stir the ragi paste in and cook on low flame until the mixture turns gooey. Now it's time to shift this cooked ragi paste to a mud pot or ceramic vessel or glass container. Keep covered with a cloth or loose lid at room temperature to allow good bacteria to enter the game and start their probiotic warfare.

HOW LOng do you need to ferment ambali?

This is exactly the amount of time it takes for curd to set in your area. In winters, it takes longer, but one time measure is to set curd at the same time. So when your curd is set, your ambali should also be ready to eat.

Now ambali is bland on its own. How can you make it delicious when it is ready to eat? As a north Indian, you can do this.

Mix with salt before eating and then pair ambali with banana chips or papad, curd/buttermilk along with a stir fry. I enjoy it with all stir-fries.

Now you have a healthy meal idea for a healthy gut.

Do share your feedback on this fermented gruel. 


Rich in Nutrients: Ragi is a superfood packed with protein, iron, calcium, magnesium, and essential vitamins like B1, B2, and B6. Buttermilk further adds probiotic benefits, promoting gut health.

Boosts Energy: The natural sugars in ragi provide a quick energy boost, making it a perfect drink for the afternoons or after workouts.

Aids Digestion: The high fiber content in ragi aids digestion and prevents constipation. Buttermilk's probiotics also contribute to gut health.

Good for Weight Management: Ragi is low in calories and fat but high in protein and fiber, keeping you feeling full for longer and aiding weight management.

Cools and Hydrates: Ragi ambali's refreshing nature makes it ideal for hot weather, keeping you cool and hydrated.

Soaking turns pumpkin seeds water green | Is it SAFE?

 Pumpkin seeds cause water to develop a green tint mainly because they contain chlorophyll, the natural pigment that gives plants their green color. This phenomenon occurs through several interconnected processes that involve the seed's cellular structure and pigment composition. Raw pumpkin seeds, particularly the hulled green varieties commonly known as pepitas, contain significant amounts of chlorophyll. This is the same compound responsible for photosynthesis in plants and creates the distinctive green appearance in leaves, stems, and other plant tissues. The chlorophyll concentration in pumpkin seeds is naturally high since these seeds develop within the green interior of the pumpkin. When pumpkin seeds are soaked in water, their cellular walls begin to soften and break down gradually. This process allows water molecules to penetrate the seed structure and extract various compounds, including pigments. Although chlorophyll isn't completely water-soluble in its pure chemica...
