It is strongly recommended to serve Chuda Dahi immediately after preparation. If left to sit for too long, the poha will absorb all the moisture from the curd, resulting in a dry or overly mushy texture.
Yes, you can substitute jaggery with an equal amount of sugar or adjust to your preferred sweetness. However, jaggery provides a more traditional, earthy flavor and is nutritionally superior to refined sugar.
This usually happens for two reasons: either the poha was left to sit for too long after rinsing and became too dry, or the ratio of curd to poha was too low. Ensure you use enough creamy curd and serve the dish promptly after mixing.
