The moringa trees are flowering in our street again.
This is an exceptionally nutritious vegetable tree which grows mainly in semi-arid tropical and subtropical areas. It is considered to be one of the world’s most useful trees, as almost every part of it can be used for food, or has some other beneficial property.
Immature green pods - eaten like beans (slight asparagus taste).
Seeds - eaten like peas, roasted like nuts or pressed for oil. (Residue then used to purify water.)
Flowers - when cooked taste like mushrooms.
Roots - shredded and used as a condiment like horseradish.
Leaves - cooked and used like spinach.
Nutrition - weight per weight, moringa leaves have the calcium equivalent of 4 glasses of milk, the vitamin C content of 7 oranges, potassium of 3 bananas, 3 times the iron of spinach, 4 times the amount of vitamin A in carrots, and 2 times the protein in milk.
Medicinal qualities - used to treat malnutrition, rheumatism, venomous bites. Its cancer-inhibiting properties are being researched.
Other uses - biofuel, antibiotic.
Amazingly, this useful tree is not available in Australia. The trees in our street are grown from cuttings brought from the Phillipines, where it is grown extensively, before quarantine laws prevented its importation. In the Philipines, it is known as the Malunggay tree.

8 August 2019, Njoben, Central River Region in The Gambia. The FAO has been helping to expand the Farmer Field School in Njoben (Central River Region -CRR) since 2014, with funding from the EU. The field has been extended from one hectare to five hectares. Today, the various crops grown here: tomatoes, orange fleshed sweet potato, herbs, peppers, cassava, cabbage, okra, rice and many other nutritious foods are grown and consumed by more than 200 women and 14 men, and their families, from the local community. The surplus is sold, and this allows many of the families to improve their livelihoods and send their children to school. Another noteworthy improvement is the comprehensive borehole and water distribution system that has been established, thereby relieving almost 500 women farmers from the hardship of drawing water from the wells.
The community has been trained on gardening and helped agricultural extension workers to introduce more varieties of vegetables and apply climate smart agriculture. Similar support has been expanded to seven other community gardens throughout the country. This component is part of the “Post-crisis response to food and nutritious insecurity in The Gambia” (Project code: GM/FED/38780)

Jain foods refer to etarian dishes that are prepared without any root etables, onions, garlic, or any other ingredients that are believed to be detrimental to spiritual progress according to Jainism. These dishes are not only nutritious but also offer a wide range of health benefits. Jain cuisine is gaining popularity among people who are health-conscious and seek aetarian diet. Jain restaurants and food delivery services have been established in several countries to cater to the increasing demand for Jain food. With a focus on purity and simplicity, Jain foods offer a unique taste and experience that is worth trying for anyone looking for healthy and delicious etarian options.
What is Jain Food?
Jainism is an ancient religion that originated in India. Jains believe that all living things are sacred and should be treated with respect, so they follow a strict etarian diet. This means they don’t eat meat or fish; they also avoid eggs, dairy products (such as cheese), and honey because these foods come from animals’ bodies.
Jain food differs from other Indian cuisines because of its emphasis on avoiding harm to any living thing–including plants! To be considered “pure” by Jains (and thus suitable for consumption), a food must not contain any substances derived from animals or plants that have been killed intentionally for human use (for example: yogurt made with cow’s milk).
Benefits of Jain Food
Jain food is a great choice for people who want to eat healthy, environmentally friendly and economically sound.
The health benefits of Jain food are obvious: it’setarian and an; you can enjoy the freshness of etables without any additives or preservatives; there are no animal products in your meal (so no cholesterol). In addition, you will be able to reduce your carbon footprint by eating less meat and benefits are also obvious: no pesticides or chemicals used during cultivation; no waste generated from processing plants; less water consumption since most crops grow in drought-resistant areas.

Paneer Tikka Masala – This paneer (cheese) recipe will satisfy even the pickiest eaters! You can serve this dish with naan bread or roti flatbreads for dipping into all of that sauce goodness!
Jain Food Etiquette
Jain food etiquette is a set of rules that you should follow when preparing and eating Jain food.
You should not eat in front of others who are fasting, as this is considered rude.
You should never use your left hand for eating or drinking, as it’s considered unclean according to the Jain religion. Instead, use your right hand or utensils such as spoons or chopsticks if available.
When hosting guests who are Jains, make sure you have enough etarian dishes available for them to eat–and don’t forget about dessert!
Jain Food Celebrations
The Jains celebrate many festivals throughout the year. These celebrations are marked by fasting, prayer and meditation. During these times, certain foods are considered sacred and should only be eaten during this time period.
The most important Jain festival is MahavirJayanti which takes place on April 14th every year to commemorate the birth anniversary of Lord Mahavira (599-527 BC), who was an Indian philosopher who founded the religion of Jainism in ancient India. On this day people usually eat khichdi (a mixture of rice and lentils), puri (fried bread) or sattuparatha (flatbread made from gram flour). Some people also eat sweet desserts such as gulabjamun or jalebi (deep fried dough shaped into coils then soaked in sugar syrup).
Jain Food and Health
Jain food is not just about the taste, but also about its health benefits. Jain cuisine is rich in nutrients and vitamins, which makes it an ideal choice for those looking to lose weight or maintain a healthy lifestyle.
Jain food has been found to be helpful in improving digestion and reducing constipation, bloating and gas problems as well as other gastrointestinal disorders like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). It also helps boost metabolism by providing protein-rich foods that can aid weight loss efforts.
Jain Food and the Environment
Jain food is a growing industry, and as it grows, it’s important to ensure that the environment isn’t harmed in the can take steps to reduce their carbon footprint by using renewable energy sources and recycling materials wherever possible.
Jain consumers should also consider purchasing products made with sustainable ingredients whenever possible–this includes organic fruits and etables, fair trade tea leaves (or other herbs), recycled packaging materials (such as glass jars instead of plastic), etcetera.
