Indian festivals enrich our essence of life by focusing on traditional, local, and seasonal foods according to the regional agricultural cycles. Festive foods symbolise prosperity, health, unity, or the season in which they are prepared.
As the Indian Government promotes regional and traditional value systems through the movement “vocal for local,” there is a need to document our traditional wealth of knowledge and promote the best practices to improve health and add more nutritious values to our populations’ dietary practices.
This book attempts to document the gastronomic diversity of the Indian Knowledge system related to festive foods and can serve as a textbook or a reference book for students undergoing courses on Food and Nutrition or health and wellness, as per the mandate by the National Education Policy (NEP), 2020.
