Food cooked in a Patila have a unique flavour and aroma.  Our journey to rejuvenate crafts of India took us to a village near Amritsar. The thatheras near Amritsar are known for their traditional brass and copper craft of utensil making. This craft has been included in the UNSECO list of Intangible Cultural Heritage. From 400 families who used to practice this craft, the number has dwindled to a meagre 15.
