56th day of our blog

Hello Readers,

Today is 56th day of our blog.  I hope you will like it.  So here we go………

Famous food of Karnataka  

Rava Kesari

Rava kesari is a sweet dish from South Indian cuisine. “Rava” is a South Indian word for “semolina” and “Kesari” is an Indian word for “orange or saffron color”, which is the key ingredient in the dish. So rava kesari literally means “semolina that’s been prepared with orange color”.

Rava kesari is a traditional South Indian dessert made with semolina, sugar, ghee, nuts and raisins. Also known as kesari bath, this 25 minutes sweet is super simple to make, a total crowd pleaser and needs only pantry ingredients. This is a perfect dessert for every occasion, be it a festival, celebration or a weekend family breakfast.

While making rava kesari, artificial kesari color is added to impart a bright orange color to the dessert. Most often a powder or liquid color is added. However this can be easily replaced with saffron strands. If you do not have saffron use natural edible color.

Kesari is made in most South Indian households & even in Temples to offer the Hindu Gods or deities during Pooja, festivals & auspicious days like Ganesh chaturthi, Navratri, krishna ashtami etc.

A lot of us also eat rava kesari as a breakfast or as an after meal dessert. It is made so often on every other occasion since it is very quick and simple to make.

Karnataka Culture - Know about tradition

Ivory carving

Karnataka is one of the states of South India where elephants thrive in large numbers. The state is also known as the “Land of Elephants”. Thus, ivory carvings are one of the distinct features of Karnataka culture. So, with the availability of tuskers, ivory as a raw material is easily accessible. 

Ivory Carving is the traditional art form of Karnataka practiced since time immemorial. This art form is one of its kind and unique to the state and scores over all other art forms of India. The craftspersons are so proficient in their craft that they always can be seen prepared with their chisel, knives, and files to shape out such lively pieces of ivory craft. Its artistic beauty brings the world to witness the rich art form of India and Karnataka in specific.
