How Kashmiri Chefs Cook A 25-Course Wazwan Wedding Dinner | Big Batches | Insider Food

In Kashmir, India, weddings and other special occasions revolve around a 25- to 36-course meal known as a wazwan. The feast takes two days to prepare and requires a large team of experienced chefs known as wazas. In Kashmiri, "waza" means "cook," and "wan" means "shop."

How Kashmiri Chefs Cook A 25-Course Wazwan Wedding Dinner | Big Batches | Insider Food

[@sshrafiqi]

For anyone wondering about the number of guests, apart from close family and friends, the guest list also includes neighbours and extended family. It doesn't always go up to 700+ people. It very well can, but it really depends on how lavish we want the ceremony to be. When talking about the number of guests invited to a wedding, we don't count the people we count the "tramis". 1 trami = 4 people

[@sshrafiqi]

"Trami" is the huge copper plate on which the food is served. Four people eat on a single plate.

[@sameerquazi2626]

So how much does it cost for a wedding, Let's say 700 guests like this, or 1000? I am assuming it'll be expensive AF, given the wood, spices, and meat. Labour is not even considered here. @@sshrafiqi

[@sshrafiqi]

700 guests in marriage are common in communities who have less population. But it's totally different scale in marriages of big population communities. Mini 1200 people and upto 2500. I have served in such marriages

[@flytothemoon50]

My wedding was last month, we invited 2500 people. Almost 4000+ coming, I'm glad and also terrified that the food and seat are not enough. Luckily somehow we managed to serve all the guests but many people that help up in the back say it's a logistical nightmare. 😂 And someone brings 4 dozen boxes of Redbull to cope with the staff to keep going. Someone said after the event someone almost collapsed from exhaustion. Really grateful to all of them who work hard on the event. ❤

​@@abdullahurslan1876 Food is usually on a per plate basis or a full on contract basis. Per plate is usually 150-250 INR i.e. 2-3 USD in a tier two/three city. For anyone else wondering, 4k is the norm not an exception. You just accept the fact that about a couple hundred guests would be strangers just there for free food.

But your country is known for sponsoring terrorism across the globe, persecuting and massacring minorities and cracking down on dissent with severe force so much so that Pakistan murdered 3 million Bengalis, and started concentration camps in Balochistan. Pakistan funded insurgencies and terror attacks in India. And militarization by India began when you all invaded what is rightfully Indian. Stop whining and crying like a baby, Pakistani.

In some weddings, the guest count goes upto 1000...so no need to be surprised at 700...XD And i dont know about the flies and bugs but yeah, now in the weddings people watch out for these wazas to keep an eye on the food safety measures taken by them and people too make batches to keep an eye on the hygiene of the food. i dont know about srinagar but other districts are so conscious about their health. Also, our culture is so important to us. Like, we dont eat wazwans regularly but only when asked on wedding and one person serving can provide a full family dinner so we often pack the stuff with us so that someone in our family could taste it too. i have never in my life heard that someone felt sick because of wazwaan....lol. And people have self control to not eat all of it...most of it is packed in bags. This is a culture i adore beacause 4 people eat on a single plate(women and men separate) and we come to know about the 3 other persons that join us in eating. well, yeah, it can be very expensive but it's what it's . i hope it will clear things up!!!

[@craigcostley4310]

[@Ranjul_kumar]

People dont know stuff in general, some of them just assume.

@@Ranjul_kumaryeah, that's the real problem nowadays...making assumptions.
