What the video says

  1. Blowing on hot dal is not cold air.
  2. Your breath is about 35°C. Warmer than the room.
  3. Hot dal cools by losing water into the air.
  4. Blowing sweeps away the damp air, so more water can leave.
  5. Try it: blow on hot dal, then on a dry roti.
  6. The dal cools faster. That is evaporation.
