May 14 — My Himachali Kitchen (174 028)
There is something different about food made in the hills.
Maybe it is the fresh air.
Maybe it is the slow lifestyle.
Or maybe it is the love quietly mixed into every recipe.
Today, I want to bring you into my small Himachali kitchen from pin code 174 028. ๐ฟ
Not a fancy kitchen.
Not a modern cooking studio.
Just a warm desi kitchen where the pressure cooker whistles in the background, chai keeps boiling twice because someone forgot it on the stove, and mummy’s voice echoes from another room asking,
“namak check kiya?” ✨
Today’s recipe is simple — a comforting Pahadi-style daal / homemade Siddu.
The kind of food that doesn’t just fill your stomach… it fills your heart.
In Himachali homes, recipes are rarely written down.
Nobody measures perfectly.
A little salt “andaaze se.”
A little ghee “jitna mann kare.”
And somehow… it always tastes magical.
I truly feel the air of 174 028 changes food completely.
The mornings are calmer here.
Vegetables feel fresher.
Even simple daal-chawal tastes like comfort after a long day.
Maybe because hill life teaches patience.
Food cooks slowly here.
People eat slowly here.
And emotions stay longer here.
While cooking today, I realized how deeply our roots live inside us.
No matter how modern life becomes…
the smell of tadka in the kitchen,
the sound of steel and brass utensils,
and the taste of homemade food
always brings us back home.
That is why I want to document these moments.
Because one day, these simple kitchen memories will become stories. ๐ผ
Maybe years later, I will watch this vlog again and remember:
the sound of rain outside,
mummy making rotis,
the brass utensils shining softly,
and this peaceful Himachali life.
This is not just cooking content.
This is preserving roots.
So today’s vlog is dedicated to every person who still believes:
home food carries emotion.
And honestly… no five-star meal can compete with food made with love in a Himachali kitchen. ๐
