Kashmiri Tchate Haakh | Kashmiri Saag | Collard Greens Stew

Haakh in Kashmiri is also Collard Greens in English or Saag in Urdu/Hindi, belongs to the Brassica family and is THE MOST favorite vegetable of Kashmiris. No its not an over-statement. Haakh is so synonymous with Kashmiri life style that if someone asks a person if he is doing ok in life, the reply would ALWAYS be "Khewaan Panun Haakh Baati" which roughly translates into "earning enough to have Haakh and bowl of rice on the dinner table". If any Kashmiri says he doesn't like Haakh then he is not a true Kashmiri. Period.

Haakh is prepared in various ways in Kashmir, the most common is 'Haakh ti Maaz' (Collard Greens cooked with meat), 'Tchamen ti Haakh' (cooked with Cottage cheese), 'Haakh to Gaadi' (Cooked with Fish), 'Haakh ti thool' (cooked with eggs). The most basic way to cook Kashmiri Haakh is Tchate Haakh (Collard Greens Stew) and is considered the healthiest version.

Ik begrijp een beetje Nederland

Ik bekhreip ein beice nederlant / I understand a little Dutch

Penyebutan huruf di bahasa Belanda itu nggak persis sama kayak cara mereka ditulis (tapi kalo nyebutin alfabet mirip-mirip sih - B ya be, P ya pe, H dibaca ha, tapi J dibacanya yey). Berikut adalah beberapa pronunciation padanan huruf yang mungkin bisa jadi info tambahan biar nanti kalau lagi jalan-jalan di Belanda bisa menyebutkan huruf-huruf tersebut dengan baik dan benar biar agak-agak warlok.

J dibaca Y (Jumbo = Yumbo, bukan Jambo atau Jumbo)

G bisa dibaca seperti khh atau sye (Groningen = Khroningen vs Nieuwe Plantage = Nyu Plantasye)

Ch dibaca kh (Schiphol = Skhiphol)

Oe dibaca u (Doei = Dui)

Ij dibaca ei atau ai (mijn = mein, rijst = rais, rijstaffel = reistafel)

Ui dibaca au (Zuid = Zaud, Kruidvat = Kraudvat, Spui = Spau)

Ee (double e) dibaca ei atau i (lees = leis, meer = mir)

Ou dibaca au (gebouw = khebauw)

Oo (double o) dibaca ou atau o atau u (oost = oust, voor = vor, slaagroom = slakhrum)

Ei dibaca ai (Leiden = Laiden), atau tetep ei (trein = trein)

Tj dibaca c (Beetje = beice)

Berikut adalah beberapa kata dan cara pengucapannya (random aja, seingetnya, ehe).

Schiedam = Skhidam

Rijswijk = Raiswaik (tapi ibu-ibu di interkom tram 1 ngomongnya kayak Reeisweik)

Gemeente = Khemeinte (Municipality)

Nijmegen = Neimekhen

Eindhoven = Aindhoven

Den Haag = Den Haakh or the Hague

Albert Heijn = Albert Hain or A-Ha (supermarket mahal)

Scheveningen = Skheiveningen (pantai di Den Haag)

Daagkart = Daakhkart (Day-ticket, bisa beli di AH, Primera, Kruidvat dan lainnya)

Bibliotheek = Bibliotheik (perpustakaan)

Enschede = Enskhede (e yang tengah terdengar seperti /œ/ atau “i” di “bird” if you get what I mean)

Dannnn fun fact, penyebutan Delft oleh warlok terdengar lebih seperti sedang diucapkan oleh orang Sunda. Delef.

The tweet didn’t go down effectively with Kashmiri netizens who’re sensitive in relation to their culinary heritage and sparked sturdy reactions.

It was referred to as out as an try of “culinary colonialism.”

“A tradition is recognized by its language and meals and these points assume much more significance for a politically-sensitive, battle ravaged area like Kashmir,” explains Faizan Farooq, a analysis scholar primarily based in Srinagar.

In Farooq’s view, alteration of language and delicacies precedes the deeper-subjugation of a inhabitants.

“Be it Kemal Ataturk changing Arabic script with Latin alphabets following his secularization of Turkey or the mass-scale manufacturing of European staple crops in Australia changing the indigenous meals of Aboriginals and Torres Strait islanders, cultural appropriation typically precedes political subjugation,” mentioned Faizan.

Many Kashmiris fear that India’s ruling proper wing Bharatiya Janata Social gathering (BJP), and its supporters try to work an integrationist agenda in Kashmir by way of political, social and cultural fronts.

In August 2019, the Himalayan area was stripped off its semi-autonomous standing by the Indian authorities and positioned below restrictions on mobility and communication.

“Kashmiris are inclined to understand each transfer taken or assertion made by mainland Indians as an infringement of their tradition, land and freedom,” mentioned Farooq.

However wosti Khosa isn’t conscious of all these socio-political connotations. He’s simply amazed that somebody might have even considered making wazwaan vegetarian.

“Even after I make greens for my prospects, I boil them in meat curry in order that they style good,” mentioned Khosa.

On most sunny summer season afternoons, alongside together with his apprentices — some 20 in quantity — wosti Khosa prepares dozens of delectable mutton-based dishes in Kashmiri social gatherings — principally marriage ceremonies.

In a single ceremony, as much as 20 quintals (4400 kilos) of lamb meat can be utilized.

“It’s predominantly a non-vegetarian delicacies,” says Khosa.

Cooked by conventional native cooks, referred to as wazas, as much as 30 out of 36 programs within the wazwaan might be preparations of mutton with fragrant spices like saffron, cloves, fennel, cardamom, and cinnamon and dried ginger. The dishes are served in traems — giant copper plates — through which 4 folks eat collectively.

“Wazwaan isn’t a mere banquet, however a ‘sequence of occasions’,” says Anayat Rahman, Professor of Culinary Artwork in College of Prince Murgin, Madinah. “It’s not solely about preparation but in addition how it’s served and eaten.”

Historically, wazwaan consists of mutton dishes like rista (meatball in purple gravy), rogan josh (tender lamb curry), tabak maaz (fried lamb ribs), aab gosh (lamb in milk curry), gushtaba (fatty meatball in yogurt gravy) and a number of other different mutton delicacies.

Conventional cooks (wazas) sorting meat to organize dishes for Wazwaan (Uman Naqeeb)

“Some greens like haakh (collard greens), nadru (lotus stems) and mushrooms are additionally served in wazwaan,” provides Rahman.

“However the thought of wazwaan is synonymous with mutton,” mentioned Zareef Ahmed Zareef, a distinguished poet and historian within the valley.

As per Zareef, earlier solely seven dishes — tabak maaz, rogan josh, kebab, daniwal korma, methi, abe gosh and yakhni had been a part of wazwaan, however later different vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes had been launched because the time progressed.

“A lot of the dishes in wazwaan have come from Central Asia. Names like rogan josh and aab gosh stem from Persia. We added a number of dishes like rista and gushtaba right here in Kashmir and consolidated it right into a single multi-cuisine meal,” Zareef provides.

The importance of this delicacies, says Farooq, might be gauged from the truth that even the Kashmiri Pundits regardless of being Brahmins (a Hindu caste identified for its strict adherence to vegetarianism), additionally devour it passionately and take nice cultural satisfaction it in as effectively.

Sagar Toshkhani, a Kashmiri Pandit primarily based out of New Delhi concurs.

“It’s an indispensable a part of our tradition. There are slight variations in preparation and names of dishes however total the delicacies is similar,” he mentioned. “It’s relished by all throughout area and faith.”

No Meat? Kashmir Turns To Climate-Smart Vegetables

No Meat? Kashmir Turns To Climate-Smart Vegetables

As meat disappears during the pandemic, a push to harvest water and grow climate-smart vegetables is having a big payoff.

As a population of enthusiastic meat eaters, Kashmiris have felt the impact of India’s coronavirus lockdown at almost every meal. Kashmir’s meat supply, most of which comes from outside the Indian-administered region, has dropped sharply since a nationwide lockdown to stem the spread of the new coronavirus started on March 24, 2020.

Imports have stalled and many meat sellers around the Himalayan region have shut, explained Abdul Rashid, who usually eats mutton at least four days a week, but has not had any in the past month. To fill the empty space on their plates, millions of Kashmiris are turning to vegetables, which local farmers have been supplying in growing abundance over the past 15 years, after adopting new seeds and climate-smart growing methods.

“Our choices are very limited these days,” said Rashid, who lives in a suburb of the regional capital, as he stopped to buy vegetables from a seller at a local market. “As vegetables are mostly produced locally, we get them fresh. And we know where they have come from,” he said.

Since the start of the lockdown, Kashmiris have been consuming large quantities of haakh – a local variant of collard greens – as well as spinach, potatoes and onions, according to the Kashmir Vegetable Dealers Association. The boost in vegetable production is the result of changes including growing use of greenhouses and rainwater-harvesting systems, said Akhtar Malik, a curator at the University of Kashmir’s botany department.

The amount of land being used to grow vegetables in Kashmir has more than quadrupled since 1981, to 48,000 hectares (120,000 acres), said Kashmir’s Director for Agriculture Altaf Andrabi. “Our vegetable production is touching new heights annually. The number of vegetable growers has grown in thousands over recent years,” he said, with over 100,000 people employed if transport and sales jobs are included.

According to official figures, 70% of Kashmir’s population of 7 million is directly or indirectly engaged in agriculture and associated sectors. Kashmir’s farmers currently produce about 1,500 metric tonnes of vegetables per year, he said, which in the peak summer season not only meets local demand but also allows exports to other parts of India where growing crops such as tomatoes, okra and peas is difficult, he said.

That demand for exports is significantly rising with meat in short supply during the coronavirus shutdown, he told Thomson Reuters Foundation over the phone from his office in Srinagar. “Kashmir valley has the unique distinction of … being able to make vegetables available to the rest of the country at a time when the whole country is in need of (more) vegetables,” Andrabi said.

The region’s vegetable production ramped up in the early 2000s, when farmers began using high-yielding seed varieties and protecting seedlings in polyethylene plastic-covered greenhouses, said Mushtaq Chitu, a retired professor at Sher-e-Kashmir University of Agricultural Sciences and Technology.

Greenhouses were a “game changer”, Chitu said, allowing farmers to grow all year round, even through the winter, and protect seedlings that once would have been washed away in the rainy season. Many farmers switched from rice farming to vegetables after discovering they could make five times as much money, he said.

While farmers in many parts of India have to wrestle with recurring drought, Kashmir’s succcess in ramping up vegetable production has been built in part on improving water storage, said environmental expert Shakil Romshoo. Installing irrigation systems is difficult in the mountainous and forested region, but farmers are using tube wells and ponds – and some have installed water storage tanks, said Romshoo, who heads the Earth Sciences Department at the University of Kashmir. More still needs to be done, though, he said.

“The government has said that it wants to increase farmers’ income, (but) such goals can’t be achieved if farmers have no easy access to water,” he said. Andrabi at Kashmir’s agriculture department said the government has helped many farmers without access to irrigation build water-harvesting tanks, and has dug wells and built irrigation canals where possible.

Reyaz Bhat, a farmer just outside of Srinagar, has two water-harvesting tanks – both of which he built because it was faster than waiting for help from the government, he said. The tanks provide enough water to irrigate his half-acre (0.2-hectare) vegetable farm, he said. Bhat, who swapped from growing maize to vegetables nearly a decade ago, now makes about 400,000 rupees ($5,300) a year selling his collard greens, tomatoes, cabbage and other produce. “What I used to earn from maize is not even comparable to the returns I get from growing vegetables. The vegetables fetch me enough money to live a comfortable life,” he told the Thomson Reuters Foundation.

With Kashmir’s lockdown extended until at least May 17, vegetable farmers say they are reaping the benefits of their bigger role at the family table. Before the lockdown, “I used to throw out some vegetables the next day as I would not find buyers for all my stock,” said vegetable seller Mohammad Yousuf. These days, when he takes his produce to the market in Srinagar, it sells out in less than three hours, he said. “I am seeing people buying vegetables like never before,” Yousuf said. “This coronavirus has made Kashmiri people forget about mutton.”
