This is a realization that has struck us as the team went out on its field visits, did its research and experimented with testing new spices and herbs in our food lab.
Team Zizira is actually a team of explorers! Well, let us assess ourselves and pitch our work against accepted definitions.
Modesty tells us to tell you that none of the produce we learn about and ‘discover’ are totally new and are being discovered for the first time. These are produced that has health benefits and are being used by the local population, but have been hidden from public awareness.
Our 'discoveries', we believe, will help remove the screen that seems to be covering some of the unique herbs, spices, fruits, vegetables, essential oils etc of Northeast India, from public view. Our effort can help draw the attention of the ever increasing numbers of people seeking a healthy living as a choice. So how is this different from any accepted definition of 'exploration' and/or discovery?
