Aurora’s pallet shelters for people experiencing homelessness, which only allow a maximum 30-day stay, have been cycling the same individuals in and out, city staff told council members Thursday. Many return to street encampments when their time in the pallet shelter runs out, Jessica Prosser, homeless services director for the city, said. Then, the city sweeps the encampment again, and they get to come back to the shelter for another 30 days, Prosser explained. This process can repeat multiple times.

Created in north India and sipped all over India and the South Asian diaspora, nimbu soda gets its signature funkiness from kala manak, a Himalayan salt used in Indian cooking to impart tangy sulfur flavor in the spice blend chaat masala and sprinkled over chaat. That flavor comes from the sodium sulfate found in its composition, and is key to the tangy, earthy notes in spice blends like chaat masala. You can make this drink with regular table salt, but it’s worth seeking out kala namak, or black salt at your local Asian grocery store, or online at thespicelab.com.
