SUMMARY:Samaya Baji at UTSC
DESCRIPTION:\n\n\n\n\n\n&nbsp\;\n\nThe Newars are the indigenous inhabitant
 s of Nepal's Kathmandu Valley\, a diverse community of Buddhists and Hindu
 s who maintain rich ritual traditions that preserve some of the earliest f
 orms of South Asian religiosity. Newar civilization\, which grew out of th
 e Valley's rich alluvial soil\, is inseparable from its agricultural roots
  and culinary traditions. Held on the occasion of the annual 'Samaya Baji'
  food celebration\, local members of the Canadian Newar Guthi will explain
  the centrality of food in Newar ritual and cultural life. Hosted in the k
 itchen-classrooms of the Culinaria Research Centre (UTSC)\, participants w
 ill be taught to prepare a number of staple recipes\, and sample the numer
 ous dishes that comprise the Samaya Baji feast.\n\n\nAttendance is limited
