  • Food Memories of Migrant Women
    FOOD MEMORIES OF MIGRANT WOMEN Mumbai Mobile Creches FOREWORD India’s construction industry depends upon migrant workers who have moved from rural to urban areas, alone or with their families, each looking for better opportunities and a more sustainable livelihood. The wives who accompany them are likely to work as well, at the construction site or elsewhere, leaving their children to fend for themselves during the day. With migration, many of these women leave behind the secrets of their regional cuisine, carrying only the memories associated with their food with them. Sadly, their stories often remain untold and unwritten. Mumbai Mobile Creches (MMC) intends to bring some of these food memories alive and capture the wonderful, culinary heritage through a compilation of treasured recipes. MMC is a four decade old non- profit organisation, and was founded in 1972 with the belief that all children have the right to a safe, happy and healthy childhood. Its mission is to cater to the needs of those children living on constructions sites, aged between 0 to 14 years, by running day care centres on - site that facilitate the comprehensive development of each child. We continue to be the only NGO in Mumbai working with these migrant children, and have been implementing comprehensive on- site education and healthcare programmes for the past four decades. Currently, the children at our day care centres hail from over 15 different states in India, reflecting the regional diversity of the migrant construction workers’ community. We wish to capture this cultural multiplicity, and the migrant perspective, through documentation of several regional recipes from across India.

  • FOOD FESTIVAL 2018 Please Ensure
    FOOD FESTIVAL 2018 The scent of the warm, summer air carries with it winds of memories- home-made pickles, mango jams and a hundred other recipes of love. A walk back to those good, old summer days, with food in our tummies and satiated smiles; the food fest brings us back the simple pleasures of childhood. Nostalgia hits us hard when those summer flavours tingle our nose buds and lure us into memories more precious than the mundane fast food that’s slowly infiltrating our lives. We at the Vidyalaya see the food festival as a great occasion to go exploring; across our country and the world, in search of flavours unknown and smells fresh and sweet. Open the crumbling recipe books and fish out a recipe, the scent of which takes you back on a journey that has stood the test of time. We’d like to explore local and traditional delicacies, part of our rich, culinary heritage. Traditional practises have naturally kept us in sync with the environment. Some households even today make use of every part of the edible fruit, be it the seed or the peel. In keeping with this tradition of amalgamating every natural product into a delicacy, we’d like to invite all the parents to experiment and think beyond. Please ensure: The Vidyalaya has taught us to show responsibility towards our environment and we wish to practise the same during this year’s food festival. We hope that the parents will encourage our initiative by keeping in mind a few points during the food fest.

  • Spices Form the Basis of Food Pairing in Indian Cuisine Anupam Jaina,†, Rakhi N Kb,† and Ganesh Baglerb,*
    Spices form the basis of food pairing in Indian cuisine Anupam Jaina,†, Rakhi N Kb,† and Ganesh Baglerb,* Affiliations: aCentre for System Science, Indian Institute of Technology Jodhpur, Jodhpur, Rajasthan 342011, India. bCentre for Biologically Inspired System Science, Indian Institute of Technology Jodhpur, Jodhpur, Rajasthan 342011, India. †These authors contributed equally to this work *Corresponding author: E-mail: [email protected], [email protected] Abstract Culinary practices are influenced by climate, culture, history and geography. Molecular composition of recipes in a cuisine reveals patterns in food preferences. Indian cuisine encompasses a number of diverse sub-cuisines separated by geographies, climates and cultures. Its culinary system has a long history of health-centric dietary practices focused on disease prevention and promotion of health. We study food pairing in recipes of Indian cuisine to show that, in contrast to positive food pairing reported in some Western cuisines, Indian cuisine has a strong signature of negative food pairing; more the extent of flavor sharing between any two ingredients, lesser their co-occurrence. This feature is independent of recipe size and is not explained by ingredient category-based recipe constitution alone. Ingredient frequency emerged as the dominant factor specifying the characteristic flavor sharing pattern of the cuisine. Spices, individually and as a category, form the basis of ingredient composition in Indian cuisine. We also present a culinary evolution model which reproduces ingredient use distribution as well as negative food pairing of the cuisine. Our study provides a basis for designing novel signature recipes, healthy recipe alterations and recipe recommender systems. Introduction Culinary practices are shaped by complex interplay of culture, climate, geography and genetics (1–6).
