    WHAT IS MY SECRET INGREDIENT?

    My secret ingredient is BLACK SALT. Black Salt tastes incredible when added to Lassi; plus, it's really great for digestion! It definitely kicks the lassi up a notch.

    BEST YOGURT FOR LASSI

    The best yogurt for lassi is the full fat yogurt. I have tried this lassi with low fat yogurt and it's definitely not the same. 

    FAQs

    Should we add milk to the lassi?

    Lassi does not require milk since Lassi is yogurt-based, However, some people do add milk in accordance with their preferences. 

    Can we use artificial sweetener instead of sugar?

    Yes! But it will taste noticeably different. 

    BENEFITS OF LASSI

    • it's beneficial for your digestion system. 
    • Yogurt is rich in probiotics, which aids in the digestive system. 
    • It also has a significant amount of calcium which is great for bones. 
    • Refreshing drink, great for summers.

    Next add black salt and salt to it.

    WHAT TO PAIR LASSI WITH?

    Lassi is a versatile. It can be drank with every meal. It can be easily be paired with Lacha Paratha, Instant Pot Moong and Masoor Dal , and Instant Pot Mutton Biryani.

    HOW TO STORE IT?
