Food for Thought - The Langar Garden, by Mata Mandir Singh 

Just yesterday I was giving a tour of the ashram langar gardens to a person in our sangat that I admire very much. We were standing in front of a lush green explosion of corn and squash rooted in some very rich soil, listening to the sound of the acequia water burbling through the rows. They pointed out to me the five elements: earth, air, water, fire, and ethers, at play in the explosion of life that is a garden. They mentioned something Yogi Ji had said about all the deities and Gods and Goddesses being living entities that congregate when the elements are balanced and the spirit is there.

Food for Health - Making Ghee 

• Heat 7-8 sticks of organic unsalted butter in a clean heavy bottomed pan. When all the butter is melted, keep the heat on low. Let it gently boil for 10 - 20 minutes or so.
• Skim off the foam that rises to the top
•  Gently boil it again for a few minutes, and skim off the foam again.
• Once the liquid has become transparent and you can see the bottom of the pan clearly, the ghee is done. Switch off the heat. (Do not keep the heat on at this stage, otherwise the ghee gets burnt).
• Now add 1/8 teaspoon of salt. It helps the floating particles to settle at the bottom. (optional)
• When the ghee has cooled a bit, pour in glass jars, taking care not to pour any of the solid particles in.
• It solidifies when completely cooled.
• There may be some ghee which remains in the vessel after you pour the clear ghee off, into jars. With a spoon, remove all the solid particles from the vessel, leaving mostly the ghee. Now use the vessel (and its remaining ghee) to make daal and it comes out very tasty and fragrant.
