Why we must avoid eating Food during a Solar Eclipse according to Indian Customs

On 21st June, 2020, Indian is going to witness an annular solar eclipse. An annular eclipse happens when the sun, moon and the earth come on the same plane. In an annular eclipse the moon is farthest from the earth. As the size of the moon is smallest than the sun, it could not block the whole sun. So it will look like a dark coloured dish surrounded by a flame coloured ring which is also known as 'ring of fire '.

Time of Solar Eclipse : On 21st June, 2020, the eclipse will begin at 9.15 am IST and will end at 3.04 pm. The maximum eclipse will be visible at 12.10pm.

Fish, Fermented Bamboo Shoots and Okra Curry

Fish and fermented bamboo shoots curry is a very simple yet tasty fish curry recipe.
Bamboo shoots are part of traditional Assamese cuisine. In Assam young bamboo shoot sprouts are found during summer between the months of June and August. There are only two to three varieties of bamboo shoots available in the local market in my place. Last Saturday my husband bought a bamboo from the local market. I preserved some for fermentation. It requires only 3-4 days for fermentation. The taste of raw bamboo shoot is bitter. After fermentation the bamboo shoots become sour and can be used to prepare fish curry.

In this fish curry I have used fresh fermented bamboo shoots that I made last Saturday. I'm also using okra in this fish curry. The recipe is very easy. Serve with steamed rice.

Peaches are soft when ripened and are very delicious. Unlike apricot and plum, peaches have one large middle seed. As I googled I found that peach fruit was domesticated and cultivated for the first time in Northwest China. It's a summer fruit and largely available in Assam.

It is believed that the name 'Ahom bogori' is derived from the Kingdom of Ahom. It may be because the Ahoms have brought with them the seeds of peach. Ahom is a large community originally from the Chinese province of Yunnan, which is located on Southwest China. From Yunnan, they migrated into Myanmar and then after crossing the Patkai Mountains entered Assam. The Ahoms have established their dynasty and ruled the Ahom Kingdom, the present day Assam for about 600 years.

We call this fruit as ahom bogori from childhood. But according to so…
