Ayurvedic Cuisine Basics through Ayurvedic Nutrition and Cooking

In‌‍‍‌‌‍‍‌ Ayurveda, food is the main focus of health. Learning‌‍‍‌‌‍‍‌ the fundamental principles of the Ayurvedic nutrition system is a very effective method of making people understand that eating is the easiest and most powerful way of healing. Cooking Ayurvedic food promotes true health. It nourishes the body and mind fully. These meals also help prevent diseases. Every dish supports balance and well-being.

What is Ayurvedic Cooking?

The‌‍‍‌‌‍‍‌ Ayurvedic diet is the best method by which the body can naturally heal itself from ‌‍‍‌‌‍‍‌diseases. It points the finger at the effect of the ingredients on the three doshas – Vata, Pitta, and Kapha – that are believed to be the body’s ‌‍‍‌‌‍‍‌energies. The ultimate aim is equilibrium.

Core Principles:

Firstly, your dosha and the season should come into consideration in the food you eat. Everyone must eat six tastes: sweet, sour, salty, bitter, pungent and astringent. Just be on the greenest, non-animated products. Avoid the processed and fake foods at all costs.

Ayurvedic Diet: harmonizing the Doshas.

Vata (Air & Space)

Best: Warm and soft foods, cooked grains, milk, and milk products.

Avoid: Cold or dry ‌‍‍‌‌‍‍‌products

Pitta (Fire & Water)

Best: Refraining from fruits, vegetables, and grains.

Avoid: Hot or deep-fried food

Kapha‌‍‍‌‌‍‍‌ (Earth & Water)

Principally, kapha needs to consume food that is light, somewhat warm, and cooked (abundant in vegetables and legumes).

Avoid: Mucilaginous, deep-fried and sweet foods must be avoided at all costs.

 

Ayurvedic Cooking

Herbs: Turmeric, cumin, and ginger are also very potent elements used in lace besides alleviating diseases, they also facilitate dosha balance.

Fats: What would be the problem with having ghee when you are a vegetarian, using sesame oil, or coconut oil instead of butter? It is great, and your body will certainly be receiving what it is getting.

Food Pairing: To continue keeping your body safe and at the same time feed your body, then you would better adhere to the rule that does not allow mixing milk and sour fruits due to the possibility of their production of toxins (ama).

The Ayurvedic Way to Eat

Ayurvedic‌‍‍‌‌‍‍‌ cooking helps the body to heal itself by natural means and also promotes inner balance. Anybody can be a good health supporter and a harmonious life maker through the use of fresh ingredients and being mindful of their eating ‌‍‍‌‌‍‍‌habits.
