History

Curd Rice has been a staple in South Indian cuisine for centuries, often enjoyed as a light meal or as part of a traditional meal spread.

Historically, curd and rice have been consumed separately in Indian households, but over time, the combination evolved into a single dish, especially in Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, and Kerala. This dish is commonly served at temples and special occasions, as it is considered a sattvic (pure) food.

Curd Rice is not just a dish but a cultural symbol of simplicity and nourishment, providing comfort and balance in everyday meals.
