Train mein Delhi ke paas Pranav ne naashte mein parathe khaaye. Agli subah, dakshin mein, idli-sambar! Bhaarat mein khaana is ke saath badalta hai ki sthaaniya roop se kya ugta hai, aur ye zameen aur mausam par nirbhar hai.

Jahan baarish bharpoor (zyaadatar dakshin, poorv aur tat), wahan chaawal mukhya anaaj hai. Thande, sookhe uttar-paschim mein gehun aam hai. Rajasthan aur Deccan ke kuch sookhe hisson mein bajra, jowar aur ragi jaise mote anaaj khaaye jaate. Tatiya log machhli aur naariyal pasand karte hain.

Phir bhi farak ke neeche bahut kuch saajha hai. Khichdi (chaawal aur daal saath pake) jaisa vyanjan lagbhag har jagah banta hai, har kshetra mein alag naam aur swaad ke saath. Haldi, adrak aur kaali mirch jaise masaale, kai hazaaron saal se Bhaarat mein ugaaye, poore desh ke khaane ko swaad dete hain.

Khaane ki reetiyaan bhi saajhi hain: mehmaanon ke saath khaana baantna ("atithi devo bhava"), tyohaaron aur pooja-sthalon par bhog lagaana, aur langar aur mandir ki rasoi jaisi saamoohik bhojan vyavastha jo har aane waale ko khilaati hai.
