What foods can one think of at the mention of summer season? Yes, ice-cold beverages, all things cool like cucumbers, melons, sorbets, ice creams and, of course, mangoes! But one food that is a must-have during the scorching heat and even goes beyond one season is - curd (or dahi in Hindi). The cooling properties of curd make it a popular addition to our lunch and dinner table regularly, especially when the temperature starts to soar. Not only is it refreshing but comes with a number of health benefits too.

Besides being rich in other nutrients like calcium, vitamin B-2, proteins, etc., curd is also acclaimed to be a prebiotic food that helps in flushing out bad bacteria and fostering good bacteria in the gut. This further helps in improving our digestion significantly. No wonder it is added to many Indian curries as well. But what makes it so popular in the culinary world is its sheer versatility. From crunchy boondi raita to a tantalising bowl of dahi bhalla and to a simple bowl of sweet curd, we simply can't get over it! And for those who are always searching for different ways to enjoy their bowl of curd, we've got a stellar recipe to try at home.
