Here 5 easy suggestions are made to make the right tandai at home:
1. Use full fat milk
Thandai is a milk -based drink. It goes without saying that the kind of milk you use is the most important. To make that right glass of Thandai, full fat milk is your best option. This helps to give the dull a rich and creamy texture, which you will not be able to get when using skimmed milk. In addition, you have to make sure that the milk you are using is high quality and fresh.
2. Add a generous amount of nuts/spices
Nuts are the rear behind the incredible taste of the dathai. Therefore, there is no reason for you to have other ideas while adding you. For the best results, consider using a mixture of various nuts such as almonds, pistachios, pistachios, melon seeds, etc. for spices, selecting for cinnamon, cardamom and black papercorn. The more generous you are, the better it will be that your stole will come out.
3. Add saffron
It is optional to add saffron to your stole, but we suggest that you do it as it can taste it to a position. You can combine some strands with nuts and spices, before they are on the ground to garnish for a paste or finally. In any way, your thandai will become delicious. With saffron, you can also add some dried rose petals to milk for extra taste.
4. Stress it well
Yes, it is important to stress Thandai once ready. Many people leave this step, and that is why you are dissatisfied with the results. Stress helps remove any remaining nuts or spices from your stole, ensuring that it has a super smooth and creamy texture. If you do not give it stress, the remaining bits have a high chance, while pricking it in your mouth.
