New Ways Of Thinking About Indian Food | Abhijit Iyer Mitra |

[@rishabhgupta9846]

It is great to talk about diverse issues

[@chatsm08]

Thank God someone's talking about it..we still don't cook vegetables with onion or garlic...

[@NarendraKv]

Abhijit, there are lot of states where groundnut oil is the staple. In Central and South India , millets are a staple. It is more widely eaten than rice. Rice is a staple only since the last 3 decades after the government started giving low cost rice in PDS.

[@sharmishthamukherjee9820]

In erstwhile east bengal,there is distinct difference between the veg and non veg food.Our windows used to cook thousands of varieties of foods without using onion, garlic even ginger in it .Foods were not only superior in taste but healthy also.My granny used to cook water hyacinth also.

[@kanikahasija3537]

🙋 Being Sindhi Punjabi I hate tomatoes in my vegetables and daals. For that I had been dissed in whole of my family.

[@u4ious]

Thanks Abhijit Bhai ...You are one of the most intelligent analyst and extremely brilliant and articulate personality with unbelievable historical knowledge. I loved your take one Paneerarism. Being a foodie myself ...got to learn lot. God bless will definitely try to make that mutton yakhni

[@RavinderSingh-wb4pp]

He is very knowledgeable person tu listen for indian youth, very informative about lot of subjects🙏🙏

[@savin1999]

Paneer is overrated. There are a lot of other stuff in veg which non-veg people are unaware of.

[@kanikahasija3537]

Overrated or not I still love paneer. I hate jackfruit which is a new norm in veg cuisine. It's about taste and preference.

[@tapanrob99]

@@kanikahasija3537 not true East me paneer se zyada jackfruit ka chalan hai aur ye koi new trend nahi hai.

[@SamDy99]

Eat mutton. It's Better

[@rexxbailey2764]

VERY FREAKING TRUE !! PANEER IS A USELESS HOAX , BUT THEN AGAIN INDIANS ALWAYS LOVED FOLLOWING THEIR HOAXES ANYWAYS. :-/

[@rutvikrs]

@@SamDy99 damn real knee slapper here. Oh my such comedic genius.

[@lakshmiram7977]

True there was no Garam Masala, onion or garlic in Tamil Brahmin cooking still taste is good. I have used Garam Masala after marriage for making North side of India's cooking.My childhood time my parents used find Garam masala as a spice for Non veg cooking. We used Garam Masala only.for Briyani.

[@rays2802]

the Ghee and Jesus Christ story was THE blasphemy!! And Im liking it :)

[@Neeraj_013]

This brown thing left when ghee is prepared. Is so yummy... Used in Uttarakhand too

[@sabalsneh9315]

Thank you Abhijeet Iyer Mitra. Awesome work!

[@rajivkrishnatr]

16:00 thank for the unique insight.

[@lakshmiram7977]

Fresh Cow milk, buffalow milk, are good and ghee from these. And curd and butter milk. Now most of the dishes people cook with curd. In olden days very few dish with curd. Curd should be taken raw cooking curd should be avoided aauch as possible

[@SamDy99]

Ghee and butter was is and will never be GOOD . It creates obesity and heart disease . So north and north westeners should STOP glorifying it

[@user-sk8xn3pd1v]

@@SamDy99 you are absolutely wrong. Ghee is the best fats there are, saturated fats are the best. Vegetable oils, edible oils, seed oils whatever term you wish to use, are the most unstable fats and Infact the leading factor of cancer in the world today. Stop with your nonsense and come to senses.

[@fordlab22]

Potatoes came from Portugal I think. Btw, this video is a nice break from your regular subject s.

[@natalkumar6132]

Peru .

[@shubhavida6961]

I eat no onion garlic since my childhood and food is great. I am averted to it if I have it outdoors.. Also I might just start recording my mom cooking

[@kishorjamatkar9436]

Brilliant absolutely

[@KameshwarChoppella]

Great talk on an super important topic

[@mahendrasharma6615]

Can someone please tell what is the meaning of 'Dalerian' which he has mentioned at 28:58 ?

[@mahendrasharma6615]

@@ranitbiswas680 Oh, I see. Thank you for letting me know :)

[@shilajitchowdhury2800]

VERY TRUE....modern ideas are removing improvisations..causing much generalisation to the food.....

[@pabitraranjan675]

Superbly described

[@vinayakzanjad7894]

I had anger issue when I saw chees on dosa

[@boejiden1524]

GHEE & JESUS WAS HILARIOUS

[@himanshupandey01]

Uniquely I too hate this obsession with PANEER . I used to be ina travelling job and suffered a lot in North india. I was kind of starving for Bhagiis. I belong to Chattisgarh , we still have lot of bhajiis used in our diet. Don't know how long will this exists before we convert yourself to punjabi . Our restaurants have almost forgotten local cusines.

[@himanshupandey01]

@N M Great , thanks for understanding, very few understand this pain. Also if you travel inside just few year back, you would have got different mugodas, and a different kind of lemon tea was prevelant, much before it became know else where , but know its all same cutting . :(

[@vishypai7554]

My own memorable of great food is at the Langar at Gurudwara Guru Gobind Singh Ji on Manali-Mandi route. It was just rice, dal and rajma. Both dal and rajma seemed to be very lightly spiced, but it was so delicious. Similar experience iRaghavendra Swami math in Mantralaya in Andra Pradesh- just rice and saaru (like rasam). More delicious and satisfying than any restaurant food.

[@arshichawla1231]

Very nice talk.... Really a different view

[@manassurya2019]

I still have no idea what dishes were there in Tamil Nadu 1000 years ago. There is very little record or recipes from that era.

[@nilanjangupta763]

Manasollasa by Someshvara does give info on the recipes of South.

Paneer ha bhai ha absolutely , finally someone spoke , a friend of mine has a handle "anti.paneer"

[@vishypai7554]

Loved the rant on Paneer, 😂😂

[@ravodedra2226]

Not besan in West Bajra and Jowar are the main carbohydrates.

[@RavinderSingh-wb4pp]

His tonal quality is like sambit patra sometime😂😂😂

[@rays2802]

You're right!! You may see them together fighting over Roshogolla :)

[@yushpi]

What about this carbohydrates vs fat suggestions fitness experts give who ask you to cut one among these two completely?

[@rrmmao]

Vested interests by companies. Propaganda

[@aarenmohite5844]

Fats are good, carbs are bad

[@debayanbasu8964]

That Christ & ghee relation was not that convincing.. I googled it as well but got nothing...

[@longratloa3222]

This fellow is half baked pretending to be knowledgeable. I wonder if he is even a true Hindu. Check his derogatory comments on odisha konark temple. Any true Hindu would know we were also the land of kamasutra. He just has a big mouth and sometimes correct research on other topics(not food though) and eloquent so people have started listening.

[@rexxbailey2764]

LOLS WELL DATS TRUE ABOUT HIM !! LOL... BUT INDIANS NEVER ACTUALLY GAVE A SHIT BOUT ACTUAL CONTENT , AS LONG AS SOMEONE IS YAMMERING ELOQUENTLY IN ENGLISH , THEY THINK ITS GOOD. ANOTHER MANIFESTATION OF THEIR TYPICAL MEDIOCRITY LADEN ONION, GARLIC HABIT BASICALLY . DATS WAT ! LOL.
