Use of dried Ginger (Soonth) and Turmeric powder

That’s the wrong way of making Saunth/soonth i.e.dry ginger. The correct process is to let it dry completely without making any single piece.

I agree with this.

@Mitali_Jain

That’s why we do not consume dry potato, onion or any other tuberous root that cannot be dried as a whole.

Sorry, I may be wrong but I don’t agree on this. Even drying things like ginger etc incurs hinsa(violence). But since they have high medicinal properties it is acceptable by people. I don’t know whether if it is also acceptable by Agam. If we can even leave eating those, it would be best. But even if it would have been possible to dry a potato as a whole and if we dry and eat it, it won’t be acceptable.
