Gajar kanji is an Indian drink, usually prepared for the festival of Holi, made by fermenting vegetables. Traditionally made with black or purple carrots native to Northern India, Kanji has a deep jewel tone, displaying its nutrient density. In this recipe, beets add the signature hue to the orange carrots of American soil, and ground mustard seeds add a pungent, medicinal kick. The seeds are believed to cool the body in the summer and warm it in the winter.
2-3 carrots (washed and sliced)
1 beet (cleaned and diced)
½ teaspoon dried mustard powder
¼ teaspoon cayenne
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
2 teaspoons salt
1 cup boiling water (plus additional water to cover)
