Our tastebuds were rejoiced with specialty of Tumkur district “Raagi Biscuits“. In Karnataka Raagi is one of the major corp produced as well as consumed. Raagi mudde (Raagi Ball) and Upsaaru (Salt Sambar/Rasam) or Soppina Saaru is one of the best combinations for our farmers. Even we here in city like to have Raagi mudde as its very nutritious and healthy. Same thing is packed and given to you all via super markets as “Malt”.

Thanks to Bhushan and Mallikarjun for pointing it out while we were packing up from “Neera Nischinthe” program conducted to educate people about “Water Consorvation” in tumkur.

As I write this article hpn puts up a nice blog post on yesterdays event in Pariveshana.
