Food is a ritual
While various foods
from Western Culture represent the typical eating habits and fast paced
lifestyle, Sri Lankan food reflects the slow pace of eating. Each culinary
process takes careful planning and hence calls for a lot of time. From smashing
spices in mortar and pastel to cutting and grating freshly plucked coconut and
stewing curries for hours onto fires stocked on firewood. Everything shows the
dedication that goes into cooking and this is what that makes Sri Lankan food
so different from others. It also means eating is not just about filling the
empty stomach, but a ritual that must be absolutely enjoyed.
Food not for timid eaters
The food in Sri Lankan
cuisine is typically ‘rice and curry’, characterized by fiery flavors. There’s
rice, and curries that usually have thin broth and large chunks of protein –
fish, goat, or anything typical to the island. And yes, there is an assortment
of side dishes. The characteristic powerful flavors of traditional dishes are capable
to awakening senses.
