Dad used to call her the literal many armed Durga on those days - twirling around like a tornado!Mirihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13676408925598600874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35578975.post-70529527880808250432010-08-01T14:25:14.725-04:002010-08-01T14:25:14.725-04:00What a beautiful piece, Sandeepa!

I usually powder the posto & let it soak in water for sometime to improve the flavor. I do miss the sil-batta, oh, how I hated It & longed for these gadgets. But now I keep looking for one to keep in my kitchen to grind the chutneys 7 the masalas, & the dal for the dahi badas. I also make posto salan, & in winter, posto halwa. They are simply out of this world.platonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35578975.post-26897310452808630972010-07-28T17:00:51.667-04:002010-07-28T17:00:51.667-04:00Hi Sandeepa,
