Hi Aarthi Ka. This is Harini Vino. All your recipes are super Ka. Once I tried your frozen garlic recipe and it came well Ka. But when I kept ginger in the freezer, it became like a stone. I asked this doubt in instagram page as well Ka. Also, when you shared your struggles over these years to bring up your blog shows how dedicated you are. Congratulations for your success Ka. Upon passion and love over cooking, I started food blogging three months before Ka. Thought of re creating your recipes once I reach a level up Ka.

If you have time, kindly suggest me some ideas Ka.
Thanks Ka.
