Naga Chillies are shown by an exhibitor at The Indigenous Mei-Ramew Food Festival in Mawphlang in Indias northeastern state of Meghalaya. For producers, the Mei-Ramew festival provided an opportunity to introduce new consumers to the foods of the area - from rare varieties of fermented bamboo shoot to Jaha, a local rice variety known for its sweetness -- both listed as endangered by the Slow Food movement.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant print captures the essence of India's northeastern state of Meghalaya at The Indigenous Mei-Ramew Food Festival in Mawphlang. Exhibited by a passionate vendor, Naga Chillies steal the spotlight with their fiery orange hue and intense flavor. This event served as a platform for local producers to showcase their unique culinary treasures to an eager audience. Beyond just being a feast for the senses, this festival aimed to introduce new consumers to the region's rich food culture. From rare varieties of fermented bamboo shoot to Jaha, a sweet local rice variety on the brink of extinction according to Slow Food movement, every delicacy had its story. The photograph perfectly encapsulates the spirit of preservation and celebration that permeated through this gathering. It is a testament to the dedication and efforts put forth by these producers who strive not only to sustain traditional practices but also ensure that future generations can savor these flavors. Biju Boro skillfully captures this moment, showcasing his talent as an Agence France-Presse (AFP) photographer. Through his lens, we are transported into a world where tradition meets innovation and where food becomes more than just sustenance—it becomes artistry worth cherishing.
