The two daughters teamed up to make some “luchis” for Christmas lunch!

For the uninitiated, luchi is a Bengali-style puffed bread made from flour. Of course, it is never “Bengali-style” unless it is deep fried 🙂

Now I know why those suitcases were so heavy when we came back from India this June!!!

… what in Bengali we would call শনিবারের হাট !

Today’s discovery includes young ginger (I do not think I have ever had this) and white cucumber. Also found Bengali’s favorite পুঁইশাক!! I am one চচ্চড়ি away from reliving the Saturday mornings in India!

I am thinking of making some cocktails utilizing the young ginger. If you have any ideas, let me know…
