I am excited about the flowering of Ayurveda in the West. It brings nature’s wisdom and vibrant health to more people everywhere. It is also bringing more mindfully crafted Ayurveda wellness aids to market, making Ayurvedic wellness more accessible than ever.
One such creative, ingenous, bright spark in this field is Yoom, the brain child of the uber talented, and uber colorful France Brunel. Yoom makes single-serve, ready to cook Kitchari Packets, and 3-Day Mind-Body Reset Bundles that include the Kitchari packets, plus Detox Teas and 3 Mindfulness Rituals for resetting.
What is Kitchari? Yoom describes it this way: “Deliciously spiced but not spicy, Kitchari (also known as khichdi, khichuri or kedgeree) is the plant-based “chicken soup” of India & its ancient health system: Ayurveda. While many eat it for gut repair, rejuvenation, detox and spiritual growth, it’s also enjoyed as an easy everyday meal that’s yummy & nutritious. Endlessly versatile and customizable, eating it feels like a hug in a bowl — each & every time.”
I made a pot of Yoom’s Kitchari this week as part of my New Year Winter Wellness Reset and loved it. I do like the long form, slow-yourself-down, traditional way of making Kitchari, but this comes out every bit as good, and is so easy – boil water, stir in contents of packet, add veggies and simmer!
As it was cooking I stirred in carrots, celery, and later towards the end, a handful of leafy greens, and then served it topped it with rosemary and a bit of tamari, which you can see in the photo above.
There are many recipes for Kitchari around this blog, but if you want to try Yoom’s, France is offering Food-ALoveStory readers 20% off this week only.
