Globalisation Nepalese Heritage food campaign

Karna shakya writes in social media (FB)

You don’t have to ‘Like’ or send ‘Comment’ to my Facebook status, but I request you to read it. 

To me FB is not a showcase but a forum in which I share my experience and businesslike practical knowledge. 

Through FB, with a support from our Nepalese Chefs, I had launched the Globaluzation of Nepalese Heritage Food campaign which was a big success. 

This time after Pandemic I am trying  to promote Nepalese ethnic Immune Boosting Drinks and Cuisine to step-up our tourism. I am not a chef, but I can play a catalyst. Here I got a very encouraging response from a best known International award wining Nepali Chef Binod Baral. He sent me his views which could be helpful for introducing typical Nepalese ethnic  “Immune  Boosting  Drinks and cuisine. 

I sincerely request all Nepalese Hotel and Restaurant owners  all over world, to think about Ethnic gastronomy which could be an effective booster to rescue and upgrade the culture and quality of post pandemic tourism.

Here are Binod Baral’s suggestions:-

Chef -Binod Baral 

I have been travelling a lot for food and work with so many foodie globally.

First of all, we need passion on food, and it’s start from produces from farm, using coking technique, telling story about food also important and its health benefit now a days.

We have one of the best Yoghurt I it right start from breakfast to all day drinks ) – JUJU DHAU

We have various varieties of spinach, I never see that much in any country,  Bethe ko saag to Pharsi Ko Munta 

Herbs and spices from Himalayas to Terai Mugrelo to Timur 

We one of the richest water source that mean local fishes - why trout why not Jalakapur or Shahar 

English Mustard can be best in world – why not from Tokha 

Basmati rice can be best in world by not Pokhreli Masina

Why Dosa – why not Chatamari 

Why Kebab – why not Sekuwa /Poku

Why Dumpling – Why not MOMO

Why Cornflake / Cereal – why not Chiura / Moori

Why Protein Powder – Why not Sato 

Why Donut – Why not Sel Roti / Malpuwa 

Why Foreign Whisky and Liquor – why not Local Raksi / Chyang/ Tomba  best may be organic )

New Zealand / Wales lamb is so popular worldwide why not Chyangrya from Manag Mustang or water buffalo from Pahad (again we have to follow current trends like organic) 

We have so much Nose to Tail dishes from Newari Kitchen, we just need to bit of work (Product improvement to make palatable for everyone including tourist). We need to get confident from them and best way to do is right cleaning, right PPE, open plan kitchen, staff training, personal hygiene and bit of marketing and storytelling from government. Long story short it has to be first locally and globally.

.....,....

Following are the culinary tips that I have copied from well known cookery book. Please check it. I request all our great chefs to develop their own choice of recipes. 

* Honey is rich in antioxidants and is often used to soothe sore throats. It adds a natural sweetness to the drink.

* Lemon juice is very high in vitamin C and can help to support heart and digestive health.

* Orange juice is naturally high in vitamin C, folate and potassium, as well as being a great source of antioxidants.

* Garlic is known to boost the function of the immune system, and in studies it has been shown to reduce the symptoms of a common cold.

* Ginger has a very long history of use in traditional and alternative medicine. It has been used to help digestion, reduce nausea and help fight the common cold and other illnesses, to name a few. It also gives the immune booster shot a little zing.

* Cayenne has many health benefits that is a result of the active component, capsaicin. It can boost metabolism and lower blood pressure.

* Turmeric is a great anti-inflammatory and antioxidant.

* Black Pepper is used to activate the curcumin in the turmeric.

* Apple Cider Vinegar can kill harmful bacteria.
