ReplyDeletei plucked some fresh pachai sundakkais from my garden in assam. about 1/2 a kg. i know it is very medicinal and would like to use it. i don't even have tamil friends over here in digboi to share some. i cant make vathals coz it rains here very erractically.which is ruled out. should i deseed all of it. or if i put some in the freezer and make fresh vks as n when reqd. we store green peas in freezer at the season's end to use it later for dishes. i have many keerais also here.its a rain forest place and thanks to my father who used to show me many plants when we were small kids. now i can identify the greens but know not how to use it.
