How We Cook Traditional Dal Bhat Over an Open Wood Fire

Experience the warmth, hard work, and authentic traditions of rural village life in Nepal as we prepare our home for Dashain and Tihar. In this video, we bring you along as we mix traditional red mud (Rato Mato) and white clay (Kamero) to hand-paint and restore our traditional mud house before the festival. After a long day of physical work, watch how we cook a comforting, organic meal over an authentic wood-fire mud stove. From harvesting fresh ingredients to sharing food in traditional brass plates, immerse yourself in peaceful village living, heritage cooking, and festive joy.
