I love pakhal and all odiyas love this staple food of my state! Unfortunately Kumarmani G is not among us. Had he been there he would have loved to put a comment here.

I'm happy to be enlightened about this amazing food, which is healthy, delicious and nutritious. Healthy eating is so important.

5) Good and relevant writing. Congratulations

4) I think we need to give wide publicity to this healthy food-combination. And The World Pakhal Day" should be observed all over the country, to create awareness of its health and nutrition benefits.

3) There, in Tamilnad, pakhal is called "Oorra veccha Choru". Dried salted fish cooked on fire or embers Is the essential accompaniment to the dish in TN, they say…

This nutritious wholesome food has become unfashionable by the time I was born. So, I have never tasted it. But I have learned from elders who used to work in our fields that it was consumed with a green chilli and little curd or buttermilk. The food was in use in Tamilnad too

That is great! A "WORLD PAKHAL DAY"? But what you have written about Pakhal, is doubly true about my native Kerala too. Cooked rice soaked in plain water overnight, was the staple food of agricultural workers and manual labour, but long back. It, sure, is a very healthy food.
