All the ingredients are fresh, organic, natural, seasonal and local except for ingredients such as pomegranate paste, spices, rice, etc.,

Saffron is used in all the rice dishes.
I make my own gee (clarified butter) from organic, raw butter that comes from a horse powered farm, called Post Family.
The produce comes from the local organic farms.
I also use organic coconut oil, sometimes canola and grapeseed oil but I use gee most of the time.
I take great care in making sure the ingredients are of highest quality and prepare everything from scratch. I make my own yogurts, jams, fruit spreads, pickles, everything. I might occasionally buy tomato paste and that will be organic in a bottle. I try to stay away from cans and plastics.
