Blood type: O+

Weight: 145 lbs. (66 kg)

Design: She’s a 5’ 2” (157.48 cm) Italian mesomorph with sloping shoulders, upper arms that carry some of her weight, a bit of belly fat, voluptuous breasts and hips, and prominent thighs. She has olive skin, droopy blue-grey eyes, and brownish freckles scattered across her face and neck. Fio has straight, slightly messy orangish-brown hair that falls just above the middle of her upper back, framed by blunt bangs and chin-length, layered sides. However, she typically wears it tied up in a ponytail. Her fingernails are painted an English lavender hue, and she wears thick, winged dark brown eyeliner, a soft rosy red blush on her cheeks and nose, and cherry blossom pink lip gloss. As a result of battle injuries and her own clumsiness, she bears a bullet wound near the centre of her left calf and numerous cut marks, stab scars, and scrapes on her arms and legs.

Her military gear consists of polarised, silver-plated transition lens eyeglasses, a metal dog tag necklace with her name, and a cordovan Eisenhower jacket. She wears a pink lavender T-shirt with a dogwood rose stripe running along the front and a carmine bra underneath. She wears carmine gloves and a gold-buckled leather belt to secure her ebony army cargo shorts, which fall just above her knees. She also wears ebony paratrooper boots, dogwood rose knee and elbow pads, and over-the-calf bittersweet shimmer socks. She has a khaki waist pack attached to the back of her belt, which carries her nail polish, lip gloss, eyeliner, two makeup brushes (a large one and a small one), a makeup sponge, and a powder blush palette. She wears a leather sheath for her hatchet, a gun holster for her handgun, and a holder for her tonfa.

The pockets of Fio's Eisenhower jacket carry around an embroidered cockade of Italy pin and a Ventolin inhaler. It carries a wooden calico Japanese Bobtail maneki-neko figurine, which is a gift from Eri. The figurine wears a metallic green collar with a red stripe and a gilt-brass bell. Its right arm is raised, and its left paw holds a koban coin. It also carries a metallic green mystery watch with a transparent crystal dial that showcases black hands in the centre of a crimson inverted triangle. Shimmering saffron-yellow Roman numerals, ranging from I to XII, are positioned around the dial, separated by three dots each. The pockets of her army cargo shorts carry a canister of pepper spray, a bottle of azithromycin pills, and a bottle of specialised prescription supplements specifically designed to manage her cystic fibrosis.

Over her T-shirt, she dons a Soldier Plate Carrier System (SPCS) with a MultiCam pattern, which carries her walkie-talkie and ammo for other firearms. Her black ammunition bandolier is slung over her right shoulder, and the back of her Eisenhower jacket features an embroidered S.P.A.R.R.O.W.S. logo. Fio carries an ebony load-bearing backpack containing camping equipment, fire bombs, stones, portable ammo boxes, a canteen full of water, and a picnic basket filled with prepared sandwiches. She also carries her latest sewing project and its accompanying supplies, a Hexagon Arms M-3685, a cat o' nine tails whip, medical supplies, a scientific telescope, and Peppino, her greyish-brown teddy bear with purple eyes and a pearlescent blue bowtie.

She always wears a pair of teardrop-shaped pink opal earrings and a gold chain necklace featuring a red coral cornicello amulet, believed to ward off bad luck and bring good fortune. She wears a khaki army cap, once worn by her father during his military service, with the Regular Army insignia emblazoned on the front. Additionally, she wears a rosy pink armband on her left arm, featuring an European bee-eater perched on an olive branch at its centre.

Character summary: She's initially reserved and timid around strangers but warms up and opens up once she becomes familiar with new people. She's a compassionate, considerate, and overly cautious listener who's really good with children and lends everyone a generous helping hand. She's sensitive and unafraid to show her true emotions, often engaging in introspective thought. She possesses a steadfast commitment to justice, having no tolerance for individuals who seek to stir up strife, and is slow to forgive those who inflict harm on others for their own selfish purposes. Despite her quiet and calm demeanour, she's surprisingly prone to stress and anxiety, particularly when confronted with obnoxious noises, unwanted physical contact or situations where she can't escape. Even though she's a seasoned warrior, she harbours an intense fear of insects and creepy crawlies, often resorting to hiding behind Tarma, Marco or Eri and insisting they handle the situation. On occasion, she displays an almost childlike naivety and exuberance, typically after completing a mission or while off duty.

She's a very friendly and gentle clean freak who'll do anything to help out her family, friends, comrades, and those in need. She prepares all her meals with love and dedication, considering others' likes and dislikes, hoping they'll enjoy what she's made. When talking to others, she often uses lively hand gestures and animated facial expressions to emphasise certain ideas. She gets easily flustered by compliments and flirtatious advances, blushing deeply and becoming nearly speechless. She's a somewhat superstitious person, believing in things like placing one's hat on a bed being a sign of bad luck for homeowners and spilling salt being a harbinger of financial troubles. She's a nature-loving girl who's incredibly clever and always thinks optimistically. She's a great strategist who excels in keep-away tactics. However, she often pushes people away due to fear and isn't the most skilled fighter, but can fight when necessary.

Whenever she's faced with the death of a child, a comrade or friend being severely injured, being touched inappropriately or being rudely insulted, her face darkens. She becomes cold-hearted and deadly serious, and her tactical prowess shines through most. She's quite curious around strangers, nervously trailing them and asking a few questions to get to know them. Despite cherishing the importance of friendship, she sometimes feels isolated by her exceptional intelligence, privileged upbringing, and cystic fibrosis. She values maintaining a healthy work-life balance and prioritising her time with loved ones, holding both in higher regard than success. She believes that living in or exploring beautiful places helps her become a better person by gaining a deeper appreciation of the world around her.

She originally harboured romantic feelings for Marco, but they dissipated after he disclosed that he isn't interested in romantic and sexual relationships. Her affections eventually shifted to Tarma, whom she found charming due to his silliness, emotional intelligence, Hokkaido dialect, the soothing sound of his voice, pleasant smile, and knack for building professional motorcycles. She finds immense comfort in Tarma's presence and often offers him solace when he's having a rough day or struggling with self-doubt.

After her romantic relationship with him fully blossoms, she forms an exceptionally close physical and emotional bond with him. However, her tendency to become overly attached manifests at times, especially when feelings of fear or loneliness arise. Despite being in a romantic relationship with Tarma, she maintains a non-possessive attitude, unconcerned if he flirts or sleeps with other women and men, considering it his personal freedom. However, she does prefer openness and honesty, ensuring that he communicates with her about his actions. She sometimes gets into debates with Tarma about what they should or shouldn't do, but she usually remains polite and calm, focusing on finding a solution that benefits both of them rather than worrying about negative consequences. After a debate, she often apologises to Tarma and follows up with a hug.

She eventually enters into a polyamorous queerplatonic relationship with Marco and Tarma, which she deeply cherishes and further satisfies her craving for emotional intimacy. She's displeased when Nadia takes advantage of her kindness to avoid responsibilities. However, she appreciates Nadia's help with dessert-making, although Fio often has to bribe her by offering something equally sweet or letting her have the largest share of a batch to persuade her to lend a hand. She's frustrated by Eri's overprotectiveness, especially when it comes to Tarma, as it reminds her of her father's behaviour and makes her feel like she's being treated like a child. She finds Red Eye to be an incredibly intimidating person, despite their relatively friendly relationship, which occasionally involves sharing a cup of tea together.

When she's reached her limit, feels threatened or needs to express her authentic feelings about something that gets under her skin, she's capable of standing up for herself and making her voice heard. She rarely swears, but when someone's pushed her too far, she'll unleash a stern reprimand, peppered with profanities in Italian. She's unconcerned by Marco's and others' opinions that carrying Peppino is childish because the teddy bear provides her with personal comfort and solace, particularly when she's anxious or sad. Ever since meeting Ralf, who encouraged her to try new things, she has mustered the courage to pursue thrilling experiences and enjoy them to the fullest, even if they carry some risk.

She's not fond of drinking alcohol due to its bitter taste and intoxicating effects, which make her feel nauseous and slightly nervous. However, on rare occasions, she’ll let loose and indulge in alcohol with her friends, especially after a challenging mission. When intoxicated, she starts to act playful, flirtatious and sexually teasing towards Tarma, obnoxiously loud, agitated, and bluntly honest.

She harbours private reservations about the Regular Army's methods, particularly when it comes to neutralising perceived threats, including journalists and enemy-affiliated personnel. She acknowledges that not everyone in these groups is malicious, but rather, many are innocent individuals caught in complex circumstances. Moreover, she struggles with the nagging feeling that those closest to her have been conditioned to uncritically accept the Regular Army's moral stance, never questioning its motivations or ethics. However, she's deeply afraid to express these thoughts aloud, fearing deadly repercussions and unwilling to risk stirring up trouble or jeopardising the relationships she values. She often pushes these thoughts aside by focusing on becoming a better fighter and drawing inspiration from high-ranking individuals like Marco and Clark, whom she greatly admires.

She has a tendency to fall asleep extremely quickly at bedtime or naptime, and her loud snoring can be disruptive to others who are trying to rest or focus on important tasks in the same room. She would be heartbroken if Peppino were lost, destroyed or stolen forever, as the teddy bear has been her constant companion since birth. However, she would be overjoyed to be reunited with the original Peppino or receive a new teddy bear that's an exact replica. During warmer weather, she has a habit of lifting up her T-shirt to cool herself off, but tries to be discreet about it.

She believes that war serves no purpose other than destruction, resulting from conflicts that escalate beyond the control of free will. In her view, war profoundly alters the moral fabric of society, accelerating the advancement of weaponry and technology used in conflict. As a firm believer in virtue ethics, she thinks morality is about becoming the kind of person we truly want to be. To become a better person, people must cultivate values like honesty, bravery, justice, and generosity, leading to a morally righteous life and self-improvement. By practicing fundamental moral values, people develop the ability to make tough choices when faced with ethical dilemmas, learning to trust their instincts, listen to their conscience, and stand firm in their convictions. She holds that life is more powerful than death, continually finding innovative ways to adapt and flourish.

Backstory: Fiolina Hortensia Germi was born on October 2, 2007 in Genoa, Italy. The Germi family is renowned for their vast wealth, military service, and philanthropic endeavours. Originally merchants and nobles, they amassed their fortune in the Mediterranean region during the Age of Exploration and have since maintained their wealth, now managing various corporations and philanthropic organisations. True to their militaristic heritage, the Germis have participated in numerous conflicts, including the Napoleonic Wars of the 1800s, the Italian Unification Wars of the 19th century, and modern-day wars against terrorism worldwide. Sadly, many Germi warriors lost their lives, leading to an important family custom where the chosen heir of the Germi family must serve in the military.

Alessandro Germi, Fio's father, was a fearsome soldier in the Regular Army in his earlier years, serving alongside Fabriclus Roving. However, he was forced to leave military service after being severely injured during a shootout, which left him crippled and suffering from debilitating post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). His body bore the scars of countless battles, a testament to the wounds he had endured and the bloodshed he had witnessed on the front lines. After returning to civilian life and receiving proper support, Alessandro successfully restored his family's struggling business. He also started a family with his beloved wife, Giulietta, a talented seamstress and manager of a luxurious art museum.

Alessandro's wish was to have a healthy son as he feared that sending a daughter onto the battlefield would be a perilous ordeal. To his surprise and dismay, Giulietta gave birth to a daughter, and due to health complications, she couldn't bear any more children. Fio's mother would also experience postpartum depression after childbirth and passed down a disease that runs deep within her heritage: cystic fibrosis. Alessandro's deep-seated fears for Fio's safety often led him to become overly protective, causing tension with Giulietta, who found his helicopter parenting suffocating.

Despite her parents' mental health struggles, they went above and beyond to care for her, providing unwavering love and support. For half of her elementary school years, she was homeschooled and her parents taught her a diverse range of subjects, including mathematics. They encouraged Fio’s appreciation for friendships, the outdoors, and the finer things in life. They even fostered her love of astronomy, gifting her a scientific telescope on her 10th birthday, which she still has to this day.

Giulietta often took her on enriching outings to nature reserves and art museums, where she learned about biology and art history. Her mother also taught her the importance of domestic duties, showing her how to do her chores and clean the house. On special occasions, her mother would dress her up in pretty dresses and give her adorable animal plushies, which she still keeps.

She was bullied and exploited by the other children because of her wealthy status and overt politeness, but her father and teachers consistently intervened. As she grew, she discovered her own voice, learning to assert herself with courage and conviction. Standing up to her bullies with firm yet gentle confidence, she effectively silenced their taunts and earned respect. Like Marco, Fio excelled in all her classes, demonstrating exceptional academic prowess and a deep appreciation for effort and lifelong learning.

However, her life took a devastating turn near the end of her secondary school days. A sudden and tragic terrorist airstrike, attributed to the Ptolemaic Army, struck Genoa, Italy, claiming Giulietta among its many victims. Her father was the most affected by this loss, turning to a life of alcoholism and self-isolation. Although Alessandro still cared about Fio and tried his best to support her, his alcoholism and newfound self-isolating behaviour made it challenging for him to do so. As a result, the butler and maids who worked in the mansion frequently took care of her.

It took time for Fio and Alessandro to heal from this loss, but they remained resilient. To cope with the loss of her mother, she turned to sewing, baking, and reading books on ancient and modern medical practices. Eventually, Alessandro sought help and went to rehab and therapy to address his issues with Fio's support and encouragement. After graduation, Fio was awarded multiple awards and scholarships, which enabled her to attend university. There, she pursued an interdisciplinary course of study, exploring chiropractics, acupuncture, physics, and astronomy.

Fio would eventually express her interest in joining the military after coming across a persuasive flyer to serve in the Regular Army. This revelation horrified Alessandro, as he didn't want to send his only child off to the battlefield, risking her life. He wanted to disregard the Germi's military traditions, believing that war is repugnant and a never-ending cycle of hate and violence. Alessandro tried to deter Fio from joining, but she persisted, driven by her desire to join the fight against terrorism and protect the lives of innocent people. He reluctantly agreed and sent her off to the military at the age of 19, but attempted to minimise her risk by using his connections and friends from his own military days to secure her a desk job, hoping to keep her out of harm's way and away from the front lines.

However, everything changed when a paperwork mistake caused by militant bureaucracy resulted in Fio's transfer to the S.P.A.R.R.O.W.S., a special operations branch of the Regular Army's Intelligence Agency known for carrying out high-risk missions. Surprisingly, Fio was ecstatic to hear the news as she had been eager to be deployed on the battlefield and make a real difference. In contrast, her father was furious and stormed into military headquarters, threatening officers in an attempt to prevent his daughter from being shipped to the front lines.

He would often try to extract Fio from the battlefield via a private jet, but she consistently resisted. Eventually, she had enough of his overprotectiveness and bravely told him that this was what she wanted—to fight on the battlefield and provide medical aid. She assured him that she was capable of handling herself. Alessandro finally understood and let her pursue her life as a military woman. In return, she promised to keep in touch with him after each mission, providing him with reassurance and comfort.

Like Eri, she played a crucial role in the Great Morden War by providing Marco's team with useful intel on Rebel Army positions. She even went so far as to provide them with sustenance, mainly in the form of homemade sandwiches. She also dedicated herself to providing medical support for Marco's team, which led to her being recognized as the lead medical technician of the Regular Army’s special forces.

During the Extraterrestrial Alliance Clash in Hong Kong, she was seized by a ruthless group of fanatic land troops and bikers who intended to exploit her for their twisted desires. One of the deranged fanatic land troops subjected her to unwanted physical contact, leaving her severely traumatised and more prone to anxiety. This horrific experience intensified her resentment towards the Rebel Army and those who seek to spread chaos and harm. Fortunately, Tarma intervened just in time, eliminating the Rebel Infantrymen with the SV-001. Eri quickly freed her from the ropes that bound her arms and ankles.

Her countless battles against worldwide criminality, terrorism, and corruption enabled her to rapidly rise through the ranks, becoming the Master Sergeant of the S.P.A.R.R.O.W.S. special forces unit. However, her time in the military has taught her a harsh reality: even the good guys can't always protect the innocent or save their friends and comrades. She has witnessed many deaths and severe injuries that left people crippled and traumatised in each battle. Nevertheless, with the emotional support of friends like Eri and Tarma, she has persevered and continues fighting to this day.

What are your favourite ingredients, spices, just food stuff over all?

The two most-used spices in my kitchen are saffron and paprika. I think that these spices are horribly misused and misunderstood, so here is my little guide to using them properly and making the most of their gorgeous colour and flavour.

Saffron is a very expensive spice (unless you grow it yourself, which is actually quite easy to do!) and so you really want to make sure that you’re getting the absolute most out of what little amount you’ve managed to acquire. Buy the smallest amount of the highest quality you can afford—there’s a lot of fake and tampered-with saffron on the market these days! The highest grade of saffron available is called ‘Super Negin’, and this is what will give you that characteristic deep red colour. I have my family send me saffron from home, but if I run out, then I like to buy the saffron offered by the brand Sara Saffron. I also have some English-grown saffron in my kitchen cupboard, and I’d like to try growing my own at some point.

To properly use saffron, take a couple of threads—make sure that your storage container is properly sealed, and shut it quicky again after opening—and grind them to a powder by hand, using a pestle and mortar. Then, put an ice cube or two into a bowl with the saffron, and let the ice melt at room temperature, at its own pace. This is the best way to bring out the natural colour and flavour of the saffron, and works much better than the ordinary method with hot water. You can then use this saffron water to flavour almost anything, from rice and stews all the way to ice cream (bastani).

Paprika is a very powerful and pungent spice, and it always makes me so sad to hear people say that it’s tasteless! It’s one of the most flavourful spices in my cupboard, and being engaged to a Hungarian means that I use it in almost every dish I make. Paprika is made in many different places and comes in many different styles, and I have an entire shelf dedicated to the different styles made in Hungary, but I mostly use pungent (csípős csemege), sweet (édesnemes), and hot (erős) varieties in my cooking. Alajos prefers his paprika smoked, which isn’t traditional in Hungary, and he has vast industrial-sized quantities of his favourite brand shipped over to the UK, but if we ever (God forbid) run out, then I buy from the brand Rubin, a high-quality producer with a UK stockist.

To get the best out of your paprika, you need to toast it a little, but not fully scorch it. The easiest way to do this, I find, is by sautéing onions or garlic in a little hot oil, adding your paprika, and then almost immediately dousing it with whatever sauce you’re cooking with so that it doesn’t burn. Of course, this only really works with stews, soups, and other such dishes, so in other cases, I bloom it in a very small amount of oil, or toast it dry. Experimentation is important here, and there’s no real hard rule, other than that paprika needs to be toasted or bloomed in some way to release its true pungency. It can be added to pretty much anything savoury, from traditional goulashes to sandwich spreads and as a garnish on eggs or salads.

Oooo do you have a favorite tea or fun tea fact? 👀

I ADORE a good jasmine green tea! Something that's strong but not too acidic, and I do enjoy some sugar every now and then. Where I live, it's super hot Almost all year round so I love almost all my tea fresh brewed and poured over ice!

To do this and not get an overly watered cup, first measure out how much tea you need for say a relatively large 24oz glass of iced tea. Then only add HALF as much water as you want in the end. So instead of measuring out 24oz of water, measure out 12oz and use the 24oz worth of tea. Then you have a hot tea concentrate! Fill your beverage cup to the brim with ice and pour over as soon as its finished brewing for a great cup of iced tea!

I'm also on a huge Saffron Tea kick and find that it's been a huge help in stabilizing my emotions as well as tasting ... unique? Either way I like it haha! You don't need much, only like 6ish strands per 12oz ish, depending on your preference. Sometimes 12 for me depending on the flavor haha! also I like to resteep them a few times if possible lol. Check out with a doctor though first bc it can lower blood pressure and some other things. For me it just helps curb my everyday anxiety a little, but it's incredibly potent and you don't need a lot at all.

You can also brew catnip like tea as long as it's culinary grade! It can act as a natural depressant/sleep aid. Yes, it makes cats crazy if they smell it, but makes humans sleepy when we drink it haha!

I also love a turkish tea over ice, sweetend with a little sugar! I love that you can brew it super strong and dilute it to your preference as sometimes I like it strong and sometimes I like it really light.

I've not been interested in boba tea as much lately unless I need a super sugar kick! I find I really dislike the taste of powdered tea and that boba places often over brew their hot tea. Some have actually had some great Pu'er tho!!!!

I could go on tbh but my knowledge really is only the tip of the tea iceberg lol

LOW CALORIE SHRIKHAND | GUDI PADWA SPECIAL DESSERT

Shrikhand is one of the most delicious and must-try Indian desserts. It is made with thick yoghurt, sugar, cardamom, and saffron. Shrikhand is the easiest handmade Indian dessert that requires no cooking. Typically, in Maharashtrian families, it is prepared during the Gudi Padwa Festival and eaten with Puri. Here, we’re creating shrikhand without sugar but with stevia. Stevia is a natural sweetener made from the Stevia leaves. Stevia is a highly sweet-tasting, zero-calorie plant extract that may be used to substitute sugar. Curd is good for digestion since it includes a natural probiotic that promotes digestion and reduces bloating. So let’s see how we can create one!

Ingredients:

Hung Curd – 1 Bowl

Stevia Powder – 1-2 Teaspoon (depending on personal preference for sweetness)

Saffron – a few strands

Cardamom Powder – ¼ Teaspoon

Pistachio Flakes – As Requires

Milk – 2 Tablespoon

Method:

Soak the saffron in heated milk until milk starts turning yellowish-orange.

Add the stevia to the hung curd and mix properly until it dissolves. (You can use a hand mixer)

Mix saffron milk into that mixture and add cardamom powder.

Mix thoroughly and cover the bowl securely with cling film.

Refrigerate for 4-6 hours.

Garnish some pistachio flakes & serve cold.

♡aamrosh♡

hey!

I'm back for my next post: aamrosh! If you thought the process of making roshogolla was easy, just wait until you see this one. I have simplified the recipe so you can make it in less than 5 minutes.

Aamrosh is a simple Bengali dessert that is made up of a sweet mango puree with spices and toppings. This is usually eaten with luchi, which is a fried flatbread made up of maida (flour). The hot and crispy luchi goes perfectly with the sweet aamrosh and the contrast of textures becomes a delightful treat you can make with no cooking experience.

If you read my last post, you would know that rosh means syrup. In Bengali, aam means mango, which is the national fruit of India (also my favorite fruit :). Mangoes are used in almost every Bengali dessert, so we'll start off with a simple and easy recipe.

Aamrosh is traditionally made with fresh mangoes which are blended into a puree. However, most of the time, it can be difficult to find mangoes as they are only in season during the hot summer months. I used 1/2 of a can of mango pulp (15 oz) to substitute the mangoes as I was unable to find any, but use fresh mango puree if possible (~1-2 mangoes + water).

Ingredients:

15 oz mango pulp/puree

1 tsp white granulated sugar (adjust to your taste)

1/2 tsp cardamom powder

saffron (safflower - substitute)

crushed pistachios

For a more in-depth explanation of saffron/safflower, check my post on roshogolla.

I added the mango pulp, sugar, and cardamom powder, and mixed the aamrosh until it was fully dissolved. Pistachios are a heart-healthy and delicious nut (my favorite again!) used in many Bengali desserts. You can also omit the sugar since mangoes are naturally sweet.

The consistency should be thin and smoothly drip off the spoon. Sprinkle some saffron and crushed pistachios and chill in the fridge for 30 minutes. Or, if you're impatient, you can skip the chilling :)

Serve with hot luchi or just eat it with a spoon. This dessert is one the easiest sweets to make out of all of the Bengali desserts, so you don't have to worry about making any mistakes. Although they contain a high amount of natural sugar, mangoes help improve gut health and control blood pressure.

Fun fact: If you have leftover aamrosh, you can freeze it in a freezer-safe container and turn it into homemade sorbet! It tastes like the Talenti mango sorbet, but even better.

If you're ever craving some sweet juicy mangoes on a hot afternoon but have no energy to follow a difficult recipe, try making aamrosh!

Dairy Free Kheer by Sheniz

We are days away from the book launch of "Cooking Up Feminism" and right in the midst of welcoming Spring with Nowruz (Persian New Year) and Ramzan | Ramadan, 2023. Let's celebrate with a beautiful bowl of Kheer. I invited Nature Artist and Poet, Sheniz Janmohamed - who has guest-facilitated for "Cooking Up Feminism" - to submit her dairy-free recipe of this beloved sweet dish, enjoyed in a variety of unique ways in countries across South Asia.

When I was growing up, kheer (Indian rice pudding) was my favourite dessert. While it wasn’t a dessert we made at home, it was one I always ordered when we went out for special meals or occasions. There was something about the first spoonful of rich, creamy kheer that enlivened all my senses and awakened the nostalgia of my ancestral homeland— India. When I switched over to non-dairy alternatives, I missed the familiarity and decadence of kheer. It was during one of the silent retreats with my Teacher that I was introduced to a healthier, vegan version of rice pudding, singing with notes of cinnamon.

Dairy Free Kheer by Sheniz

During the pandemic, I’d make myself warm bowls of kheer, sit by the window and watch chickadees flit about the trees. It was a small comfort on long, dark days of uncertainty. It brought me back home, and hugged me in the reminder that even though I felt alone, I wasn’t. I had the recipes of my ancestors and teachers at my very fingertips. ~ Sheniz

Ingredients:

1 cup of basmati rice 1 cup of unsweetened oat milk 2-3 tbs of honey or agave syrup 1 tsp of vanilla extract 3-5 stems of saffron 1 tbs of cardamom powder 1 tbs of rosewater A sprinkle of cinnamon A sprinkle of nutmeg

Garnish:

2 tsps of slivered almonds or pistachios 1 tsp of edible rose petals

Steps:

Soak a cup of basmati rice for about 10 minutes. Rinse it of stones and husks.

Boil rice and strain, setting aside for later.

Heat a cup of oat milk in a pot on medium heat until it begins to simmer.

Swirl in 2 tablespoons of honey or agave syrup. Add according to your sweet tooth :)

Scatter in 3 - 5 stems of saffron and stir until the mixture turns a pale golden hue.

Add in 1 tablespoon of cardamom powder.

Sprinkle in cinnamon and nutmeg.

Swirl in a teaspoon of vanilla extract.

Add rice and lower temperature to medium.

Stir gently until it achieves the consistency and taste you like— you can add in more milk or hot water if you want it runnier.

Gently stir in one tablespoon of rosewater before garnishing— rosewater tends to get lost in cooking, so it’s best to add at the last stage before serving.

Garnish with crushed edible rose petals and nuts, then serve.

Thank you for sharing this wonderful, sweet recipe with our community, Sheniz! Stay tuned as we launch "Cooking Up Feminism" in book form on March 25th, 2023.

The Golden Spice of Wellness : Premium Quality Saffron

Saffron, often referred to as "red gold," is one of the most revered spices in the world. With its rich history, vibrant color, and a plethora of health benefits, this ancient spice has been prized for centuries.

What Makes Saffron So Special?

Saffron is derived from the flower of Crocus sativus, a plant that flourishes in specific climates, including regions like Iran, Spain, and Kashmir. Each saffron thread is a stigma carefully handpicked from the flower, making its cultivation a labor-intensive process. This meticulous care contributes to saffron's high value and its unmatched quality. The appeal of saffron goes beyond its culinary uses. Its distinct aroma, rich crimson hue, and numerous saffron health benefits make it a cornerstone of wellness, medicine, and even beauty products.

Saffron Benefits: A spice of Wellness

A Natural Mood Booster : Saffron has been extensively studied for its antidepressant properties. Compounds like crocin and safranal in saffron have been shown to influence serotonin levels, helping to alleviate symptoms of anxiety and depression. Incorporating red saffron powder into your daily routine—whether in tea, milk, or food—can uplift your mood naturally.

Supports Cardiovascular Health : Rich in antioxidants like crocin and kaempferol, saffron promotes heart health by reducing oxidative stress and improving blood circulation. Regular consumption of premium quality saffron may help lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart diseases.

Boosts Skin Radiance : Saffron is a favorite ingredient in beauty routines for its ability to improve skin tone, reduce pigmentation, and fight signs of aging. Applying saffron-infused skincare products or consuming it as part of your diet ensures that your skin reaps the benefits of this golden spice.

Enhances Memory and Cognitive Function : Emerging research suggests that saffron could play a role in preventing neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's. Its natural compounds have been linked to improved memory retention and better cognitive function.

Promotes Healthy Digestion : Saffron has traditionally been used to improve digestive health. Its anti-inflammatory properties soothe the digestive tract, making it an effective remedy for bloating, indigestion, and other gastrointestinal issues.

Aids in Hormonal Balance : Saffron is particularly beneficial for women, as it helps regulate menstrual cycles and alleviate premenstrual syndrome (PMS) symptoms. Its natural ability to balance hormones makes it a valuable addition to women's health routines.

Red Saffron Powder: A Versatile Superfood

For those seeking convenience, red saffron powder is an excellent choice. This finely ground form of saffron retains all the properties of the spice, making it easier to incorporate into everyday recipes. At Amertaat, we ensure that our saffron powder is derived from premium quality saffron, offering you unparalleled aroma, flavor, and benefits.

Cooking with Red Saffron Powder

For example:

Studies have shown that saffron’s crocin content exhibits anti-cancer properties.

Clinical trials highlight its efficacy in reducing symptoms of depression and anxiety.

Saffron is increasingly being recognized as a natural alternative for managing Type 2 diabetes.

By offering premium quality saffron, Amertaat continues this rich tradition, ensuring that you experience the full spectrum of saffron health benefits.

How to Incorporate Saffron into Your Daily Routine

Culinary Delights - Enhance your meals with red saffron powder. Whether you're cooking exotic dishes or experimenting with desserts, saffron adds a touch of luxury and health.

Skincare Rituals - Mix saffron threads or powder with honey and yogurt to create a natural face mask that brightens and nourishes your skin.

Avoid Sunlight: Place the container in a cool, dark place to preserve its vibrant color and efficacy.

Use with Care: A little goes a long way—just a pinch is enough to unlock saffron’s benefits.

At Amertaat, we ensure our saffron products come in high-quality packaging that maintains their freshness and potency.

[ayushayurved]

Healthy, glowing skin is a sign of beauty and overall well-being. In today’s fast-paced world, factors like pollution, stress, and unhealthy lifestyles often take a toll on our skin. Ayurveda, an ancient Indian system of medicine, offers natural and effective remedies to restore your skin's glow and health. If you are looking for an Ayurvedic doctor in kharadi this guide will help you understand how Ayurveda can transform your skin naturally.

What Affects Skin Glow?

According to Ayurveda, skin health is influenced by the balance of the three doshas: Vata, Pitta, and Kapha.

Vata imbalance can cause dryness and dullness.

Pitta imbalance may lead to sensitivity, redness, and breakouts.

Kapha imbalance can result in oily skin and clogged pores.

Factors like poor diet, lack of sleep, dehydration, and exposure to toxins worsen dosha imbalances, leading to various skin problems. Ayurveda aims to restore balance and nourish the skin from within.

Ayurvedic Remedies for Glowing Skin

Ayurveda focuses on holistic healing by addressing the root cause of skin issues. Here are some powerful remedies for radiant skin:

1. Herbal Face Packs

Turmeric and Sandalwood Paste: Turmeric’s antibacterial properties and sandalwood’s cooling effect reduce blemishes and add glow.

Aloe Vera and Rosewater Mask: Aloe vera hydrates the skin, while rosewater soothes and refreshes it.

Multani Mitti (Fuller’s Earth) with Neem Powder: This mask removes impurities and excess oil, leaving the skin clean and glowing.

Apply these natural face packs 1-2 times a week for a visible difference.

2. Detoxify Your Body

Toxins in the body can dull your skin. Ayurveda recommends:

Triphala: A combination of three fruits (Amalaki, Haritaki, Bibhitaki) that cleanses the body and enhances skin health.

Neem: Consuming Neem capsules or tea purifies the blood and prevents acne and pigmentation.

Hydration: Drink warm water infused with lemon and honey every morning to flush out toxins.

3. Natural Oils for Massage

Kumkumadi Oil: This Ayurvedic oil is a blend of saffron and herbs, known for improving skin tone and reducing dark spots.

Coconut Oil: Massaging your face with coconut oil moisturizes dry skin and imparts a healthy glow.

Almond Oil: Rich in Vitamin E, almond oil nourishes the skin and reduces fine lines.

Regular facial massages improve blood circulation and bring a natural glow to your skin.

4. Ayurvedic Diet for Glowing Skin

Ayurveda emphasizes the importance of eating the right foods for healthy skin:

Fresh Fruits: Include papaya, oranges, and pomegranates for their skin-brightening properties.

Leafy Greens: Spinach and coriander cleanse the blood and boost skin health.

Healthy Fats: Consume ghee, almonds, and seeds for hydration and elasticity.

Spices: Turmeric, cumin, and fennel improve digestion and reduce inflammation, resulting in clearer skin.

A balanced diet tailored to your dosha type ensures long-term skin health.

5. Ayurvedic Lifestyle for Skin Glow

Follow Dinacharya (Daily Routine):

Start your day with face cleansing using natural ingredients like rosewater.

Exfoliate weekly with a scrub made from chickpea flour and yogurt.

Hydration:

Drink at least 8-10 glasses of water daily to keep your skin hydrated and flush out impurities.

Practice Abhyanga (Self-Massage):

Regular body massages with herbal oils improve skin texture and tone.

Avoid Harsh Chemicals:

Switch to Ayurvedic or natural skincare products to maintain your skin’s pH balance.

Get Adequate Sleep:

Beauty sleep is essential for skin repair and rejuvenation. Aim for 7-8 hours of restful sleep every night.

6. Stress Management for Healthy Skin

Stress can lead to dullness and breakouts. Ayurveda recommends:

Yoga and Pranayama: Yoga postures like Surya Namaskar and breathing exercises like Anulom Vilom calm the mind and improve skin health.

Meditation: A daily meditation practice reduces stress and enhances your inner glow.

Why Consult an Ayurvedic Doctor?

If you’re looking for personalized care, consult an experienced Ayurvedic doctor in Kharadi. They will analyze your Prakriti (body constitution), lifestyle, and skin concerns to provide customized treatments. From herbal facials to detox therapies, Ayurvedic doctors ensure long-lasting results without any side effects.

The holistic approach of Ayurveda not only addresses skin problems but also improves overall well-being, giving you a radiant glow from within.
