GLIMPSES OF INDIA
~Summary~
PART- I
A Baker from Goa
-by Lucio Rodrigues
Bread Making in Goa

This is a pen-portrait of the traditional Goan village baker, who is still remembered by Goans.
Bread making started from the Portuguese days. They were the lovers of bread. Bread making
was an art which needed perfection. Mixing, moulding and baking were the areas of
specialisation of making bread. The loaves were baked in time tested furnaces. This profession
has been continued by the baker's descendants.
The Author's Childhood Days Recalled

The author remembers his childhood days when the baker used to be their friend, companion
and guide. He used to visit twice a day, once in the morning during his selling hours and then
again while returning after selling all his bread. The jingling thud of the bamboo, he carried, woke
them up in the morning and they ran to meet and greet him. They ran for getting the bread-
bangles, which were a specially made sweet bread.
Delivering the Loaves

As the baker came, he would call out the lady of the house and wish her 'Good Morning'. The
children would be pushed aside and the loaves would be delivered to the maid servant. The
author recalls the aroma of loaves that filled the air. The children would not even brush their
teeth and ate bread bangles made of bread with tea.
Importance of Bread in Traditional Ceremonies

The various kinds of bread were very important for all occasions. No marriage was complete until
and unless the traditional bol was served. The lady of the house on the occasion of her daughter's
engagement would prepare sandwiches and bolinhas would be prepared for Christmas and other
festivals. (bol and bolinhas are the varieties of bread)

The Baker's Dress

The baker was usually dressed in a kabai, a long frock reaching down to the knees or a shirt and
a trousers which were shorter than full-length ones and longer than half pants. Even today if
anyone dares to go out in the streets wearing half pants, he is referred to as a pader (baker).
Bread Making - A Profitable Profession

The baker usually collected his bills at the end of the month. All the accounts were written on a
wall in the premises with a pencil. It was a profitable profession during those days because
Portuguese were lovers of fresh baked loaves. The baker, his family members and his servants
looked prosperous and happy.

country. These people married among the locals and their culture can be witnessed by their
martial traditions, marriages and religious rites. The Kodavus (residents of Coorg) wear a long
black coat with an embroidered waist belt. Known as Kuppia, it resembles Kuffia worn by the
Arabs and the Kurds.
Bravery Tales of Coorg

Coorg people are well-known for their bravery. The Coorg Regiment is one of the most decorated
regiments of the Indian Army. General Cariappa, the first Indian Army Chief, was a Coorgi. Even
today, only the Kodavus are permitted to carry firearms without a licence.

Coorg is home to a large number of wild animals and birds. Mahaseer, a large freshwater fish, is
found here. Kingfishers, squirrels and langurs live without any fear. Wild elephants enjoy being

during the summer vacation. Rajvir is very excited to see the beautiful scenery of greenery and
tea plantations outside. Rajvir tells Pranjol that over eighty crore cups of tea are drunk everyday
throughout the world.

also panoramic (a wide view). There was greenery outside. The soft green paddy fields gave way
to tea bushes. Tea bushes spread as far as the eye could see.
Legends about Discovery of Tea

There are many legends about the discovery of tea. The Chinese legend says that when a few tea
leaves accidentally fell into boiling water which the emperor tasted and liked, and tea making
started.
Indian legend tells that a Buddhist monk cut off his eyelids because he felt sleepy during
meditations. Ten tea plants grew out of these eyelids. The leaves of these plants when put in hot
water and drunk, drove away sleep.
Chinese-the Tea Lovers

origin.
From China, it spread to Europe and then to Asia, Earlier tea was drunk more as a medicine than
as a beverage.

Answer: The description about Coorg was really interesting. It was an invigorating and
eye¬opening account of a beautiful place that our country has. I felt excited and thrilled to read
that Kodagus are such a martial race. The wildlife and the panoramic view of the entire misty
landscape excited and thrilled me. But it was worrying how alone would I go there ? The idea that
I might be lost in case I went all alone made me worried. But the idea that I shall see everything
about the place thrilled me. It is so thrilling to see this piece of heaven with evergreen forests
and spices and coffee plantations. Today, scientific research across the world has attempted to
establish the beneficial qualities of tea—a fact the Japanese and the Chinese knew anyway from
ancient times, attributing to it numerous medicinal properties.
