Indian Jews, Konkan Coast and Kippur-Chi-Puri

<p>About 2000 years ago, a group of people escaping persecution by the Greeks landed on the shores of Alibaug in Maharashtra, India. They were a small community, and soon spread out across the state. A similar phenomenon was observed in Cochin and Calcutta as well. The community went onto integrate so well into the regions they lived in, that they became indistinguishable from the natives. This week, in the second episode of Fabulous Foods, we follow the lives of this tiny, dwindling community spread across India. Tune in, and discover why their story is a masterclass in cultural assimilation, and how their food and cultural practices could show us the path to living harmoniously.</p> <p>Huge thanks to Shulamith Malekar for graciously sparing her time to speak with me. Also thanks to Noel Malekar for allowing us to use some of his music as a part of the episode.
