Amma's kitchen smelled like cardamom and memory. She stirred sambhar with practiced hands, the copper pot gleaming under afternoon light. My grandmother hummed—verses from Kannadasan, the poet who understood hunger beyond the belly. "Food is love," she whispered, offering me a steaming spoonful. I bit into the soft idli, feeling generations dissolve on my tongue. My parents worked hard, teaching me that earning respect meant serving others generously. Every meal she prepared carried our Tamil heritage forward, binding us closer. Years later, I'd share this recipe, this love, with my own family. Some traditions never starve.
