Why Learn Karnataka Food Names in Kannada?

Food is the most vivid expression of Karnataka culture — ಬಿಸಿಬೇಳೆಬಾತ್ (Bisibelebath), ಮಸಾಲೆ ದೋಸೆ (Masala Dose) and ರಾಗಿ ಮುದ್ದೆ (Ragi Mudde) are dishes grandmothers make with love and children eat with joy. When a child can ask for ಒಬ್ಬಟ್ಟು during Ugadi or name every dish on a traditional ಮಡಿ ಊಟ (banana leaf meal), they are participating in Karnataka's living culinary culture. For Kannada families abroad, these food names carry the taste of home and the warmth of grandmother's kitchen.
