Culinary Heritage

Authentic Recipes of Assam

Discover Assam’s signature dishes—from alkaline Khar to tangy Tenga, slow-cooked meats, freshwater fish, and nourishing greens.

Assamese cuisine balances seasonal ingredients with minimal spices. Banana stem, ou tenga (elephant apple), black sesame, and local herbs flavour everyday meals. The culinary journey moves from Khar to Tenga, ending with tamul (betel nut) and paan.
