They all seem very exotic and delicious...I have seen Zameen dos being prepared by some cooks in Rajasthan recently on a cookery show, where they said that it is very much in practice and extensively prepared when the existing royalty and their guests go for desert stays ..


Pay no mind to those who talk behind your back, it simply means that you are two steps ahead !!!

In Araku Valley in AP, I have seen a delicacy called, Bamboo Chicken in which Hollow bamboos are used to prepare chicken. Now this Bamboo chicken has become a thing of the past.

So many breakfast dishes are vanishing and have been replaced by bread as working couples are in a hurry to leave house as fast to reach offices in time.

Yes. Fast paced life warrants for fast paced and ready to eat fast foods. Good or bad, this is  the toll taken by the Modern fast paced life.

 

In Rajasthan dishes of Bajra were famous, even chapaatees of Bajra have been dis appeared from Rajasthan. Bajra has lots of iron but still it is ignored.

I agree. Fast paced life  simply eaten away scores of such delicacies .

 

Some dishes have been lost with time but many more quick and easy recipes have taken their place now.I guess it is all a matter of convenience and changed life style. Now we see a fusion of  dishes too, some of which are nice because they suit the Indian palate ,

We had a delicacy  made with Tamarind leaf and pulses. But the tamarind leaf simply disappeared. Even if one wants to prepare the ingredients are not available.

 

Here in our city every leaf possible is regularly used.Tender tamarind leaves,drum stick leaves, Baby marrows ( tonde kai or tindora) leaves,and many other local ones , and Colacasia leaves are all very popular and available in markets all through the year..

You are lucky in that respect. Now that Vizag has been  selected for developing in to a Smart city, the possibilities of availability of tamarind leaves or any leaves are vanishing.
