Learn how to cook two healthy, ayurvedic staples: kitcheri and ghee! Ayurveda is a “sister science” to yoga and acts as a guide to help you find the ideal lifestyle for YOU. In this class, we’ll cook to cleanse and restore for the seasonal change, learn about herbs and spices that support healing and vitality, and use vegetables given to us by nature during the fall and winter months.
Basic concepts of Ayurveda will be discussed and all participants will get to have a taste of the kitcheri and take home some ghee. Kitcheri is a very flexible and forgiving rice-based dish.
In this workshop you will:
+ Learn how to make kitcheri
+ Learn how to make ghee
+ Learn about seasonal cooking and regional cooking
+ Take home some Ayurvedic recipes and ghee
+ Be able to ask questions!
Note: If you are working towards completing your Ayurvedic Yoga Specialist Training, or are signed up for the Ayurvedic Cook & Food Workshop that counts as Session III in that program, this workshop is INCLUDED at no charge to you. If you are not in the third session (details here), then you must pay.
