|

A Kerala Tour always involves a savor of the ethnic Keralite dishes. Kerala cuisine is hailed as one of the most tempting and healthy in the world. Almost every dish prepared in Kerala has coconut and spices added to it. Spices are used in Kerala to tone up the system the way wines aid the digestion of Western cuisine. The juice of tender coconut – world’s safest natural soft drink – is a refreshing nutritious thirst quencher. The staple food of the masses is rice. Most tourists on a Kerala Tour prefer to experience a sadya. A typical Kerala feast, referred to as sadya, is spread out temptingly on a clean green banana leaf. The food is to be eaten using hand. Even the dessert, Payasam, which tastes like rice pudding is served on the leafy plate. The culinary efforts of the different communities of Kerala come out in distinctly different dishes of great variety. While the Hindus specialize in delicious vegetarian food such as sambar, rasam, olan, kaalan, pachadi, kichadi, aviyal, thoran and so on, the Muslims and Christians excel in non-vegetarian cuisine. Kerala cuisine also has a medley of pickles and chutneys. The crunchy pappadams and banana chips can give French fries a run for their money any day. |
