personally I hate eating onions.. I try to avoid them as much as I can but there's really no way to cook Punjabi food without them. You HAVE to use them to make tarka. I really wish there was another way but don't think it's possible.

there is a hukamnama of bhai banda singh bahdur u should not eat i read.

This doesn't seem real but if such a thing does exist can someone please quote it? :)

actually, theres nothing wrong with eating onions, thats ridiculous.

many brahmins in the old days refused to eat onions or garlic because when doin gtheir mantars etc it caused extra saliva.. as well as smell..

from what i understand at least, this moved on to sikh practices and i have heard of cases where panj pyare even give this instruction to not eat onions or garlic. why? well i had someone in my family who was given this instruction by panj until he peshed 10years later and told he didnt have to follow it. Basically they say its because when you are doing patt etc you will have extra saliva and spit on the gutka or on guru sahib.. i guess it makes sense, but this is a function of the hazooria to block anything coming from your mouth, thats why you hold it up in front of your mouth if you have recently eaten something like that.. i guess its up to you..

i dont see anything wrong with eating it and it seems ritualistic to me..

Remember bahi banda singh bahadur

once went against the wishes of

panj piyaraas.. Im sure many know

that.. So it's kinda tricky of following

hukamnamas of banda singh bahadur jee and sants/sipahi like him..

so anyway.. Im not dissing.. i luv bhai sahib for his devotion

to sikhi.. but i think we need to follow Sri guru granth sahib

and hukamnamas of our guru sahibs wubb.gif

First i thought topic is on Ghanaeyyy (sugarcane stuff) lol.. tongue.gif
