Ayurveda Notes (help)
Ojas is said to have the smell of burnt rice. Here, dates also build ojas. When cooking rice for vata constitution, make sure you add enough water till the rice seems bloated. Otherwise, the rice will continue to absorb liquid from the colon and cause constipation. Add oil to this recipe for a late autumn calming energy boost.
