Most home versions never get there because the batter never gets the time it needs — a rushed overnight ferment produces something flat and gummy that sticks to the pan and tastes of raw rice. This version stretches the ferment over two full days: a warm twelve-to-eighteen-hour rise to get the batter alive and bubbling, followed by a slow, cold second stage that deepens the sourness properly. It takes patience, almost none of it active, and the difference on the tawa is unmistakable.</p>Mon, 10 Feb 2025 14:10:00 +0000
