Dill or Dill seed was used since very early times throughout Europe, especially in Scandinavia and eastern Europe.
Diltar refers to the yoghurt drink from Hunza Valley. Hunza people pople call it buttermilk, lassi or simply a yogurt drink. Diltar is traditionally prepared in a goat- or sheep skin which is shaken or rolled on the ground until butter forms. An alternate method uses a tall, narrow wooden cylinder and a long, thick pole in a process much like churning butter. However, nowadays, the simplest way to make Diltar is to mix yogurt with an equal amount of water and blend at high speed for a few minutes with added salt, sugar or fruits, like bananas or mangos depending on the preference of the consumer.
