Preparing a kanji is also extremely easy, but a time consuming affair. It's a drink that involves a little labour and some love. In Punjabi households, it's usually prepared in huge glass containers called barnis. The vegetables and spices and seasonings are all left to sit in water for three to four days in the Sun, and once the fermentation process is over, it's filtered out to collect the deep red liquid. The drink is usually stored in glass containers in cool, dark places. Have you experienced the unique tangy taste of kanji yet?
