Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: The picture shown is an offering made to God on the festival of 'Nombu' celebrated widely in South of India specifically the state of Tamil Nadu in the month of March. Traditionally, the festival sees married women pray for the well being of their husbands.The arrangement shown consists of the 'Nombu Adai' accompanied by raw white butter, a holy yellow thread tied around the neck by the lady of the house .betel leaves, betel nuts and flowers offered to the Goddess Kamakshi. 'Vella' (sweet) Nombu Adai can be correlated to a rich pancake wherein rice flour is heavily seasoned with jaggery, cardamom, steamed and served with the raw butter. Another variation is the 'Kara' (spicy) Nombu Adai wherein jaggery is replaced by mustard seeds and curry leaves. |
