Kulfi isn't ice cream like the West knows it, it's so much more.
Kulfi is a traditional Indian frozen dessert known for its rich, creamy texture and unique flavor. Unlike regular ice cream, kulfi is made by slowly simmering milk to reduce it, then sweetening it with sugar and flavoring it with ingredients like cardamom, saffron, pistachios, and almonds. The mixture is then poured into molds and frozen. This slow-cooking process gives kulfi its dense and luscious consistency. It's often enjoyed on a stick, similar to a popsicle, and is a popular treat during hot summer months. Kulfi comes in various flavors, including mango, rose, and malai (cream), each offering a distinct taste experience.

Since it's basically summer in America, I think it's time to start doing some Kulfi for my Aatma pop-ups. You ready?

Of course, supporting local farmers is important but working WITH them to create a level of sustainability in your community is another level.

Meet Keira from Yankee Farmer's Market
We are working WITH her and her team to find out how we can create a more sustainable model where we help the farm succeed by purchasing some of the trickier items that the average home cook might not know how to use.

We're proud to say that in the past decade, we've never repeated a single course out of the 530+ we've served! We believe that every event is special and should be a unique experience for our guests, capturing the essence of that moment in time.

What will be your new favorite course this year? Join us and find out!

Looking to add some extra flavor to your cooking this year?
One of the things we LOVE to use when we create dishes for The Farmers Dinner is, garlic.

Consider curing garlic over the winter! By allowing your garlic to dry out in a warm, dry place for a few weeks, you can intensify its flavor and extend its shelf life. Plus, it's a great way to use up any excess garlic you might have grown in your garden. Give it a try and let us know how your cured garlic turns out!

07/03/2023

In 2019, chefs Keith Sarasin and Chris Viaud had the opportunity to write a cookbook that shared many of the recipes we created over the past 8 years with The Farmers Dinner.

Don't want to wait? Head on over to www.thefarmersdinner.com to get your copy today and bring it to our events so we can sign it!
