  • Jaralud bad dohsniang

    "Jaralud" (Khasi)/ "Yaralud" (Pnar) cooked with "dohsniang" (pork) is a Pnar dish but it is also eaten by Khasis. "Jaralud" is a low lying shrub that grows in pine forests. It grows in the summer season and is a refreshing addition to the summer diet. "Jaralud" also has a distinctive smell and flavour that some might not find appealing. But for those who love it, we say thank you for the chlorophyll! 😋😋😋
