Welcome to Dal on the Table!
We’re thrilled to continue our culinary journey through Asia, exploring the rich diversity of pulses and traditions. Having traversed Southeast Asia, East Asia, North Asia and Central Asia, we’re now heading to South Asia, delving deeper into the fascinating world of pulses.
Along the way, we’ve shared insights into the versatile mung plant – from its delicate flowers to its nutritious pods and leaves.
Join us as we discover new flavours, traditions, and stories from across the continent. Our Seed2Seed project continues to flourish, and we’re excited to share our latest explorations with you.
Thank you for visiting us!
Happy Reading and Happy Cooking!

Very informative and well documented. Opens a whole new world in an exciting way about lentils (dal/ dyle), something we take daily; I knew nothing much about dyle till this site was launched. Congratulations to the author for her patient documentation and excellent presentation.

My family just discovered your website – we love it so much! It is wonderful to see what different dal plants look like, and we are enjoying learning about the different parts of the plant. You write so beautifully. Thank you for sharing your work with us. We can’t wait to try some of your fusion recipes! We live in Hobart, Tasmania, Australia, so I am not sure if we will be able to source all of the ingredients but we will try!
