Guest guest Posted August 26, 2004 Report Share Posted August 26, 2004 OmJoshi, i would love to hear the Indian perspectives on spices. Tia, you are right " No Salt " is simply Potassium Chloride in place of Sodium chloride. if you look at the Periodic table from Chemistry you will see that the elements are very similar and their structures are nearly identical. Sodium causes your body to retain water potassium does not. using potassium in place of sodium is a smart decision. be well, Ross ==-=--=-=-=-=-=-==-==--=-=-=-=-==--=-= aartistman Re: Salt Substitutes Yes in India we use rock salt ( espacially that is obtained fron salt mines). It is considered to be an aphrodisiac and a heart tonic. When people fast in India they take only fruits and use this rock salt. Ready to use spices for vegetables, fruits, and curd etc are available in small packets I shall be happy to inform about the use of spices and their characterstics. with regards, aartistman -=-=-==-=--==-=-=-=--==--==-=--==-=-=- matrixenos <matrixenos wrote: Hey gang, I was wondering if you've heard anything on salt subs, in particular a product that I just got, called " NoSalt " . I did a quick google and someone said that the potassium ingredient was signaled as radioactive and whatnot... It could be the ole myth and jibber jabber, however I was just curious if anyone of you have had experience in using it or have heard anything about it (including if these funky ingredients are even veggie-friendly). TIA, S. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--= The difficult situation that the US is in can not be solved by waging more wars. The violence done in our name generates more violence and hatred against us. The solution arises from changing our attitudes about other people. We need to stop the theft of their resources and labor and begin to treat them with respect and dignity. RossCannon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fry2-3 chopped onions in 2-3 spoonful butter till they become little brown.Add 2-3 chopped Tomatoes, green chilies and then add 3 spoonfull spies (mixed). Add salt to taste. Mix vegetable and spices. If you like you can mash also to eat with pav (bread peices) Cut the Pav buns and apply butter on inner side and roast. Now serve them with Vegetable called in India Bhaji Ingredients of spices: Coriander,Chillies, Cumin, Dry mango, Big cardamon,black pepper,dry ginger,Fennel, Cassia, BisHop`s Weed,Cloves, nut meg,nutmace, Cinnamon, black cumin.
