Procedure for the preparation of Khala Takra and its properties
Ingredients
This is another work in progress post. Both chithrak and punarnava are there in quarters, mom says, we have to just walk around. All i have is BV pundits ChitrakAdi vati. Mom can't bend to pluck saaranai keerai, and i can't identify without her guidance. All naattu marundhu kadai powders are brown. Fact is any medicinal powder has useful life only for 6 months. Seems simpler compared to temana buttermilk which involved deer musk.
