Ganderbal: During the holy month of Ramadan, a traditional Langar Khana in Ganderbal is keeping alive a centuries-old Kashmiri tradition of cooking food over firewood. This community kitchen, located at Darul Uloom Fathimah-ul-Zehra in Sheripathri, Ganderbal, prepares Sehri and Iftar meals daily, serving over 250 girls studying at the institution. The Langar also provides meals to around 110 girls currently observing Itikaf, and will continue to serve food to them until Eid. Following a time-honored cooking method, the Langar uses firewood to enhance the authentic flavors of traditional Kashmiri cuisine. Volunteers and organizers work tirelessly to ensure that those fasting receive freshly prepared meals before dawn (Sehri) and at sunset (Iftar). In an interaction with Salaam TV, the management of the Langar highlighted the efforts behind this community service and showcased how meals are prepared using traditional techniques.
