I need your suggestions and help . I prepare chappathi in large quantity and put it in a ziploc bag and store it in fridge . When taken out for consumption i microwave it by putting a wet paper towel over the chappathis .They turn out to be very hard . But when taken fresh chappathis r soft . The same chappathis when used after refrigration r hard . Why is this happening ..
At the same time chappathis bought from stores remain soft even after 10 days . Are they using any special ingredient to keep the chappathis soft . Pleas help me out .. Thanks and regards ..

Food such as chapathi, thosai, idli should not be microwaved.
Use the tawa to heat your chapathi, but only after defrosting. Best to eat within minutes of reheating.

kulsam: New threads for recipes is ok. This thread is mainly to clarify issues/doubts/questions that you face while cooking.

It's actually better if you can open new threads for different recipes (i.e. when you can't find them already in the existing list of threads). Otherwise, it may get buried in old posts. Hope that clarifies.

Dear Mrs. Mano,
I am fm Malaysia n I have heard of this product. It is a kind of mushroom grown in China. it is believed to have a lot of medicinal properties and overall detoxifying. A professor in malaysia tried growing it n found that it grows very well here. The price is much cheaper too. there are a variety of products that use this mushroom like coffee etc. If u would like to know more pls send me an email
