About Unani Nuskhe

Unani Nuskhe is an independent journal about everyday Unani kitchen knowledge: the ingredients families have used at home for generations, the simple recipes built around them, and the stories behind them.

What you will find here

Short ingredient notes that explain what something is and how it has traditionally been used in kitchens. Step-by-step recipes for drinks and home preparations. Plain-language articles on the traditional background, with sources named wherever we can.

How we write

We describe traditional and cultural use. We do not make health promises, and we do not tell you what a food will do for your body. When a tradition says something, we say that it is traditional, not that it is proven.
