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.
