Uttarakhand Food Traditions

In 2018, Shashi Bahuguna started Namakwali to bring the region’s traditional flavours to more people and create jobs for women in her community.

Kulthi dal is naturally rich in plant protein, making it an excellent addition to vegetarian diets and helping support daily protein intake.

Chefs highlight traditional Indian ingredients like chibbar and bhangjeera that add unique flavors and reflect regional culinary heritage.
