Bitter melon is a very healthy herbal ingredient. Normally it should be infused for 10 minutes, but the taste is bitter with long infusion that I need to add on either dark sugar or honey. The taste, however, with shorter infusion is pretty dried and sweet.
ReplyDeleteThe taste of these ingredients is pretty smooth and pleasant.
Wow, I envy you by thinking this amazing recipe. Can I ask you if I can mix some tulsi herb on those to add up some antioxidant component on this wonderful dish? Or will you give us another recipe that may have this holy basil on it?
ReplyDeleteDear Hanna, Sorry I only saw your message today. I am afraid I don't have sufficient knowledge about Tulsi, but according to Wikipedia, it has anti-oxidant properties and can repair cells damaged by exposure to radiation. Can you please give me more specific information, for example, its nature taste and aroma? So I can try to study what other ingredients can be use to create a fine natural healthy drink?
