Thepla is a type of Gujarathi flat bread, this type we have today is made with fresh fenugreek leaves, whole wheat and chickpea flours along with some spices. It is full of flavors and tastes best with just yoghurt and pickle.
今天做的葫芦巴香饼是我最喜欢的面饼之一,不仅是因为饼有股吸引人的奇香。也因为葫芦巴拥有很高的药用价值,是真正的健康食品。这款面饼可以用新鲜的葫芦巴叶,也可以用干葫芦巴叶。干的葫芦巴叶有股奇香,一打开包装那个香气慢慢地渗出,带点香草精的香味,又有点奶油的甜香,但吃入口却有点苦涩。那个味道和感觉要亲自尝过才会知道。我听说中国一些地区的朋友们也会用葫芦巴叶做饼和花卷。葫芦巴叶是学名,也有别名叫香豆叶,香草等等。知道的朋友可以来对号入座一下。
葫芦巴也是中药的一种,在四川、河南、甘肃、安徽等省也有栽培,抄一段网上有关葫芦巴药效的文字和大家分享分享。
葫芦巴何时传至印度与中国已难以考证。我国现存中医药著作中最早收载葫芦巴一物的是《嘉本草》,此后历代编修的本草著作均收载有葫芦巴条目。据记载,葫芦巴入肝.肾二经,味苦,性温,无毒,补肾阳,祛寒湿,属于常用中药材之一,目前我国中医常将其作为补肾药。祛(肠)风药与健胃药使用。[在]印度与阿拉伯国家,民间医生常将葫芦巴用作强壮剂。催欲药、镇痛药、口腔清凉剂与通经药。印度一制药公司已将葫芦巴开发成为一种外用制剂,用于治疗关节痛.淋巴炎.痛风.外伤.足痛.肌肉酸痛以及痈疖痛等症。
