Lovely Left over For a foodstuff that is consumed by half the
world's population, in the west, we seem to
value it so lightly. Of all the rice cooked at
home , we throw away large portion of thm
every year.
The statistics from other countries aren't any
better. The Department of Agriculture
estimates that about a third of rice bought by
consumers is thrown out.
The advice on looking after rice is that it
should be cooled as quickly as possible after
cooking before storing and also making sure
that we make good lovely food from the
leftover.
This is a sincere attempt to write about the
traditional “Tamil Brahmin’s” (Tam-Brahm) recipes.
This newsletter will contain the recipes of the food
that are typically cooked in a Tamil Brahmin
community (Iyer & Iyengar or any Brahmin
community).
There is an old saying that goes like this “You are
what you eat” and Brahmin Cuisine follows the
concept of shaping the personality, mood and mind
of the family members.
