		<description><![CDATA[Veena’s Market offers cook-it-yourself recipe kits that give you all the spice ingredients and rice in a convenient pack along with a well-tested recipe. Veena saw firsthand that Americans attempting to cook Indian food at home are often discouraged by the challenge of finding all the right spices in reasonable amounts and recipes that work for them. Veena’s Market solves this problem by offering pre-packaged kits with the specialty ingredients in just the amounts you need, including a shopping list for the fresh ingredients and a proven recipe. Where available, we use organic and fair trade ingredients, following through on Veena’s Market’s commitment to sourcing ingredients ethically. ]]></description>
