The Buddha Bowl Dressing
The Buddha bowl dressing is a bright and refreshing dressing with fresh green mint leaves enameled with a hung curd and olive oil base. The mustard powder gives it a beautiful hint of yellow color, a strong aroma and slight pungent flavor. When you taste this dressing you may not notice the mustard flavor instantly, but it does add to the overall flavor.
Mint is cool and the hot flavor of mustard balances the tastes very well. Hung curd gives a good creamy texture as a base. Also a healthier option to use.
I prefer this dressing during spring and summers. For winters I’d rather have the tahini based sauce.
Like any other thing, seasonal ingredients do play a very important role in making or breaking the constitution of our bodies. Summers, do ask for ingredients which cool us down and cut the heat. Winters on the other hand are the opposite. I do follow this mantra with full conviction.
