WORLD'S BEST RAITA
My family has been making raita this way for as long as I can remember. It's simple and delicious. The trick is to use mustard seeds instead of cumin. The mustard gives it a kick, but if you want you can reduce it. Yummy!!!

Steps:
- Whisk yogurt until smooth and set aside.
- Grate or dice cucumber. I think grated cucumbers enhance the flavor.
- In a spice grinder or blender crush the mustard seeds into a powder consistency.
- Combine yogurt, cucumber, and mustard seeds and set aside for 30 minutes. This lets the flavors blend in and the mustard can do its job.
- A few minutes before you are ready to serve add the salt. Adjust salt according to your needs. Enjoy!
JIM'S RAITA
Raitas combine fruits or vegetables with yogurt to provide cooling accompaniments to spicy dishes. In the vegetarian households that traditionally serve raita, it has a double function -- it acts as a refresher and a digestive at the same time.
