सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि

In Pakistan, 'Shorba' is the foundation of the 'Salan' (curry). A good cook is often judged by the clarity and flavor of their shorba. Similar to Pakistan, the 'Shorba' tradition is strong in cities like Delhi and Lucknow, where it is often served with 'Sheermal' or 'Naan'. The word 'Shorba' is a direct link to the Arab world, where 'Shurba' is often the first thing eaten during Iftar. In rural areas, 'Shorba' is often made very thin to ensure it can be shared among a large family, eaten by soaking large pieces of whole-wheat roti.

Gender Matters
