Seeing your idli batter rise up beautifully…
LHB and I mark the batter dabba to check and measure how much it rises after fermentation process.
I don’t know why we use permanent marker. Who cares? Those lines in the dabba reminds me of our experiment 🙂
Green line – Right after I grind 4 cups of rice
From bottom :
1st black line – Right after I grind 6 cups of rice
2nd black line – This time 6 cups of rice gave me that much of batter (more than usual. I wonder how?). May be I finally got the right time and consistency! Phew!
3rd black line – After the batter fermented that too in overnight. Its a medical miracle you know! Usually it takes me more than 1 whole day to ferment.
I left it out for another half a day and that’s the top of the batter you see. Didn’t mark it though!
Ladies and gentlemen -This is true happiness. I can see those who grind idli batter at home nod their head heavily with me (especially those who live in cold weather)
Idli maavu and curd during winter, if they set on time in right consistency , that really is a true happiness
Totally.. cant agree more
