Visiting an Indian vegetable market for the first time - learning Indian food culture

  • During my mom's first days in India, I wanted to show her all that I could about life in India. Coming from Finland, we are used to a very different type of grocery shopping experience so I thought it would be interesting for my mom to see what a vegetable market looks like in India. A sabzi mandi or bazaar can be an overwhelming experience for a foreigner in India, especially in a city like Jaipur. Later we took her to a farm to see vegetable gardens and animals. She was quite impressed, not just by the market but by the Indian food we had at home later in the day :)

    I am so happy that your mother doesn't judge,give unnecessary opinions and has a very positive impact on everyone around her. Her demeanor is outstanding and very likeable. Annika has wonderful grandmothers and joyful grandfather. Beautiful family around Annika. What a bond little Annika is.

    I'd like to point a mistake.
    India has more food than western world.
    That explains the low price of food compared to western countries.
    That is the reason why India is so populated since ancient times.
    People settled in India back in ancient days due to easy availability of Food.

      Correctly pointed out. There is no land more fertile than this sub-continent. The variety and abundance of vegetables and food crops is unmatched anywhere in this world.
      Her ignorance in declaring India as 'food scarce' nation is foolish to say the least.

      India has one of the highest malnutrition rates in the world. It doesn't matter if the country grows a lot of food if there are still millions of people without access to adequate nutrition. Please try looking outside your middle class bubble at how the poor in India actually live.

Your narration is excellent. I also feel more enlightened about my country and her differences from the western world in detail ... Annika's drawing and gift episode is just great. Painter Annika is in love with her painting so much that she doesn't even want to gift it. That's the sweetest twist in the story. Love. 😘😍🥰🌈💜💙💚💛🧡❤️😇🙏🙋

    "Lack of food in India & overabundance of food & selection in West". I think this statement needs to be put in context.

      True. Countries like Canada are importing fresh vegetables and fruits for most of the year due to their local climate being harshly cold for many months. Also, we should all be eating seasonally and locally...and vegetarian... as these are the most environment friendly options. The west isn't as smart as they think. They are starting to appreciate the wise, ancient Indian culture...Ayurveda, meditation, yoga etc. It is too sad to see Indians running after the western way of life.

    There was a time when mothers first bought what ever "good"( quality wise, price wise and freshnesswise from local farmers market which works usually in the mornings) then decide which dish could be done after considering the likes , dislikes ,diet restrictions of elders, suitability for kids.
    But today life style changed .First decide menu and search for ingredients. If receipe is not known go for what recipe one knows.
    India wastes very less vegetables and prepared food.Even markets have different grades of same vegetables or lentils or spices so one gets what exactly one wants.

    Very humble blog dear Johanna! Your appreciation of Indian culture and your mom’s interest in and her acceptance of it is a very humbling 🙏
    City I grow up in even I haven’t been to street markets like this and grocery was picked up from stores. So this made me see India as whole it’s true being.
    I still remember from past video your love for stuff karela!.. I am growing karela in my backyard and decided to make stuff karela but turned out horrible. My kind request if you can share that recipe of your sweet MIL’s please.
    Lots of ❤️🥰

    I don't think India has any shortage of food. Infact India is one of the biggest exporter of food items to the west. Europe imports most of the food items from Ukraine, China, Argentina, Indonesia and India. Actually there is no culture of eating frozen food items in India. We prefer eating fresh food and not the frozen and stored food that's why we eat food that's seasonally available instead of storing food for other seasons and eating the frozen unfresh ones. But i do not at all agree with ur statement of shortage of food in India. India is infact the largest producer of food in the world and all thanks to our warm and seasonal climate. Also India ranks second in the world with most arable land with 386 million acres of land only after the USA with a very marginal difference, not much.

      You're mostly correct about there not being a shortage of food in India. However there is a problem of distribution of that produce. Since we're a society beset with tremendous inequalities, we witness the paradox wherein a small section of the population has disproportionate access to that produce while a significant number are subject to malnutrition, stunting and wasting as per the Government's own studies .

      It’s not ”my statement” but something I’ve read a lot about in indian newspapers and online articles. 🙏

      You are mostly right about the food production, but the issue is not with the production rather it's to do with the distribution of that disproportionate amount of food.
      In short, India is a surplus of food nation, but the distribution of that food is still somewhat an issue.
