According to "ayurveda" all foods are divided into
three catagories "rajasik", "tamasik"
and "saatvik". It is believed that
the food we eat, decides the quality of our minds and health
of our bodies.This section highlights Saatvik cooking. Saatvik
food consists of lightly cooked vegetables with
minimum spices, fruits, nuts, honey, milk and milk products.
Jain food is also very similar to saatvik cooking except that
certain root foods like potatoes, ginger, onions, garlic are
prohibited.
