Newari People Celebrates Yomari Punhi

Newari girls in a traditional attire pose in a large Sample of "Yomari" (a bread of rice flours) displayed during Yomari Punhi in Kathmandu, Nepal on Wednesday, December 30, 2020. Yomari is a special sweet delicacy prepared with rice-flour (rice from new harvest) and brown cane sugar (chaku) and sesame seeds fillings. Yo meaning like and mari meaning bread; giving it name Yomari literally meaning “tasty bread”. It is believed that eating this dish will take away cold as it is steamed cooked and served hot.
