The origin of these sarees can be traced back to about 200 years, to the time of Gadwal samasthanam and the efforts of Queen Maharani Adhi Lakshmi Devamma who promoted the craft. SPECIAL FEATURES 1. One of the most notable features of the Gadwal saree is the use of a very fine count of cotton which makes it feather-light. It can literally be folded into the shape of a small matchbox. 2. There are two joints in a Gadwal saree - the horizontal and vertical joint. The vertical joint joins the saree with the border, and the horizontal joins the body of the saree with the pallu. 3. It is the horizontal joint's interlocking weaving technique called “kuttu” which makes this weave special. The interlocking process is carried out entirely by hand, using the thumb and index fingers. 4. The weaver sews the joint by taking the thread from the body and the pallu and twists it together to make this kuttu. He uses natural gum to execute this technique, and this process requires immense skill and experience to be able to attain perfection. Weavers in Gadwal have a rare honour of weaving the sesha vastram or the "eruvada jodi panchalu" for Lord Venkateswara at Tirupathi during the annual Brahmostsavam. The weaving commences in August, and the vastram for the Lord is woven in yellow, maroon and red. Called as Gadwal Yeeravada, a 24"x5" inner cloth, is draped as a cushion onto the forehead of the main deity before he adorns his diamond crown. This cloth is still prepared and presented by Gadwal samasthanam and credited as such. The vastram is woven on a special loom, and the weavers follow a strict personal regimen during the weaving process of 41 days by chanting the name of Govinda. Once the weaving is complete, the Sesha vastrams are carried by them and handed over to the temple's main priest. The weavers are bestowed to perform a special arathi after handing over the cloths. The chief priest, after collecting the dhotis, whispers into the ears of the deity that they have received Gadwala Sesha vastram. This tradition kick starts the Brahmotsavams.

With beautiful song sung with all dedication in a melodious voice and the soothing mom and son cool casual interaction no doubt about the tastiest outcome of the Prasadam(preparation). Food for ear,heart and stomach 😋 👌👌
Tried kovil kadambha yesterday. The only difference was didn't add black urad dhal. I made it with wheat dhalia instead of rice. Made it as Ekadasi special so avoided urad dhal and rice. It was yummy. Took me back to the kadambham I savored in the morning hours cold weather in Tirupathi ages ago. Thank you for the wonderful recipe.
Thanks tried this differently... roast of split moong n urad ..during navratri Friday for Devi as prasadam. N it was great. Thank you. Cheers from Pune.
