   Back home in India, we used coconut oil and a soft,old cloth to rub the furniture. Of course, you have to dust the furniture first. The furniture will have a varnish effect.

   In response to comment no.4 : You got a remember that this is a cooking website and not a salon website ! Instead you should appreciate the efforts put by Hetal and Anuja in providing easy, simple and healthy recepies. It is indeed lame on your part to ask about salon things ( Waxing, etc!!) when this is cooking website and deals with aspects related with it. If you do a google search, it should answer all your dumb demands which really are odd in the first place. God bless !

   Hi Anuja and Hetal Didi,

   Thank u so much for the tip. It is a very inexpensive tip and a great way to preserve the environment.
   Just a quick question! Which Aisle in a American store can we find the Rubbing Alcohol. I remember studying about isopropyl alcohol in my 12th standard in Organic chemistry. Had that in Chemistry Lab too.. would have got that if i had seen ur website in 2002!
   Thanks Again.
   also, Hetal didi, ur shirt is very nice. Can u please tell me from where u got it? Both are looking very cute today. Promise !
   Cheers,
   Priya

    Hi Hetal & Anuja

    First of all many congratulations to you both for the excellent work. You guys a re doing a great job and I should say very inspiring. I have became a great follower of this site. Keep up the good work and good luck in all your future work.

    Is there any way that we could buy those DVD’s? Even I was looking for them in your website but could not find the links.

    Would appreciate your response.

    Thanks!!!

    Congrats on the book (“The Healthy Indian Diet”), Hetal & Anuja! I recently came across this intriguing and well put-together title at my local B&N… and had brought it home and begun reading it before I realized, “Hey, this is by the women from ShowMeTheCurry!” Nice, solid work. I’m just reading Aggarwal’s “Healing Spices” too right now, which is along similar lines–would highly recommend both these books to anyone interest in the subject.

    Thanks for this tip about the stainless cleaner. Tried it and it really works well. Only thing is, for appliances like electric kettles, toasters and so on that come in close or direct contact with food, I hate to use the petroleum-baded products like baby oil. I’m going to try an experiment based on your great tip, only with ingestible products (I was thinking a high-proof vodka and a clean, light cooking oil might produce similar results?) Saw someone else here commented they’d heard of olive oil being used as a stainless cleaner, so I figure this ought to work as a substitute.

    Keep up the great work you go and best wishes for your continued success!

    Thanks so much for your support! Interesting idea about using edible ingredients for the cleaner (never thought about it). Please let us know how it works out for you.

    Which food processer is good for big shreddead cabbage i have now but its very tiny and watery so let me know.

    Hi Varsha,

    To shred cabbage, you must use the large metal blade that you would use for slicing (not the metal chopping one and not the shredding one). You are probably using the shredding blade normally used for shredding carrots or cheese. This blade will make your cabbage watery.

    To clean silver vessels,jewellery and idols:
    Things needed: Aluminium foil, baking soda, salt boiling water, big glass bowl
    first take the glass bowl, put the aluminium foil inside then put baking soda and salt and then add the boiling water. Now put the the silver items to be cleaned inside this bowl and wait for 10-15 minutes then take these items out and wipe it with paper towel or kitchen towel. It will look like brand new items just bought from shop.
