ACK 11.10: Masala doodh
Masala doodh
Hot saffron-flavored milk with pistachios
Ever since Srila Prabhupada was invited to Moscow by a prominent Russian Sanskrit scholar in 1971, Krsna consciousness has spread rapidly in the Soviet Union despite heavy government persecution. Even though there is the constant danger of being detected, the Russian devotees are enthusiastic and determined preachers, and they regularly cook sumptuous feasts for invited guests. From the industrial city of Sverdlovsk, in the Ural Mountains, a devotee reported that Russians are very fond of this recipe for masala doodh.
