In an Instagram post, she once mentioned, “There’s nothing that your grandma didn’t plan for. She knew that winter meant cracked lips, ankles, and awry moods.

Prevention is better than cure; we all agree.” She further wrote, “And to prevent the aches, pains, and farts of winter, we have timeless wisdom from the Indian kitchens. We will post the recipes soon, but this is just to jog your memory and remind you of the warmth of your grandmother’s nuskas to cope with the bitter cold.” Scroll down to read about the six winter superfoods from grandma’s kitchen that one can keep handy this season.
