Suggestions

Sambaram

  1. It is associated with the spread of Onam Sadhya. It has a filling effect, so it’s best to take it on fasting days. Because Sambaram is a body cooler, it is best to avoid it on rainy days and after dark otherwise, you have a chance of catching a cold.
  2. Sambaram is best in the summer because it is refreshing. It also aids digestion and can thus be served as one of the dishes when we have a large spread. Serve 1-2 glasses chilled or room temperature between breakfast and lunch, or during the meal course.
  3. To make Sambaram more appealing and refreshing, garnish with coriander or mint leaves. Add ice cubes to make Sambaram more appealing to children and those who prefer it with ice. Because buttermilk ages and becomes sour, consume it on the same day it is made or the next day if refrigerated.
